Vanilla WoW really was cancer.

RFK?

Play aggressive instead of sitting behind cover like a sissy

Oh no.

God dammit, BTLC will always force me to post.

Holy shit, thanks for reminding me of that nightmare. I love how everyone thinks WoW Vanilla was the sweet spot. Nostalgia is a hellova drug

>>378630328
I just don't get how they fucked that system up so badly. How hard is it to do make the NPC go to the nearest point on the path as opposed to the last point they were on on the path.

Literally solved.

Vanilla sort of was the best the game ever was.

It's a shame it was such a clusterfuck of unfinished unbalanced ideas.

Enemies jump out to attack you during escort mission more than they regularly do.

>Have to clear room of all enemies before you can talk to NPC
>Room contains zero cover or hiding spots
>Talk to NPC

Game was great until this shit happened.
