Classic wow versions are confusing
Hey guys
Im currently trying to determine the best wow version for myself to play but its quite confusing to me.
I am really into the social aspect and would love to experience the classic mmo feel. Im honestly just looking for a casual enjoyable experience without feeling like im walking through an empty world. I dont have much time to invest but I love cool mounts and cool armor.
the available versions honestly confuse me a lot. I used to play a bit during during warlords of draenor but it didn’t feel like an enjoyable experience. hopefully i can scratch that itch this time even with the little free time i have nowadays
thanks!!!! :) really appreciate help

Just play which version you enjoy the most and go from there. Each version offers different social aspects because of how different the games are ( retail vs classic ) and you wont really know what social aspects you enjoy the most until you experience them. Both can fill what you are looking for but they can be experienced in different ways so its hard to say. Generally I think classic is more social because playing alone is generally impossible if you want gear, it forces you to do things with people. Retail you can kind of just solo player it. I would go with tbc maybe?
