You cant really recapture the magic of how things were back then. The players themselves were different.

No doubt. I did the vanilla run and had a great time, but it doesn’t suck me in to spend hundreds of hours like it did the first time.

The biggest thing I think a lot of gamers forgot was how to enjoy the journey. So many of us got to where if we weren’t grinding cutting edge raid content and min/maxing our builds/characters we weren’t going to be “happy”. Happiness is found in exploring a zone for the first time, hunting rares/pets/mounts, and cautiously progressing through a dungeon. It’s the journey.
