dhars_official: Bro, we need a whole YouTube series with Xar just reacting to Captain Grim. He's made some good videos.

Artemis-d4c: 1. captain grims videos are 10/10 i suggest anyone to binge watch them all

2. i agree, everything he says in this video is facts

3. permanent wotlk, tbc, etc servers are 100% doable, warmane has been sitting there with a healthy population for how many years? a decade?

KazoWAR: man, i remember waking up early to get in the queue and go back to sleep.

elegost2570: I don’t really play videogames anymore these days coz u know… life and stuff. Every now and then some friends send me stuff about other games and insist on trying them out. I’m always like, dude, if I find the time to play a video game, u better know it’s gonna be Classic Wow. Nothing else catches my attention, not even close.

sungodniku: Wild how he talks about legion for a while and just as he finishes, Xar's like "did he talk about legion??"

Hail_Yldra: First time i've heard of WoW was in October 2005, going to my friend's house just near by, you know, see if we can do kids stuff outside, touch grass and then... His brother came in, told me he was playing something called "WoW", and i was like WTF is this s***, the day after that, he bought me the 14days trial cd. Well people, it will be 20 years in October this year that i know this universe, and i don't regret a minute of it.

Hail_Yldra: I had the same experience as Grimm for shadowlands, but i was not angry at Blizzard... i was really, really sad, like waking up from a nightmare or something, the greatest game of my life being... that ? It was heartbreaking.

H25Invicta: Captain Grim has provided some of the best creative video content on WoW during the modern era. His commentary on the game is fair and entertaining in equal measure. Grim does not dumpster the game for clicks. His content is borne out of love for it. He highlights the absurdities of the WoW experience by showing it to the viewer in a humorous light.

KazoWAR: "lets take a look"

gerard6038: Captain Grim is an OG

CondemnedInformer: Xar, you HAVE to watch his videos.

vergil8833: I don't mind classic going in cycles at all as long as something permanent exists, like SoD (maybe) and anniversary classic with hardcore. But I do wish that something else kept going in just classic and TBC, not normal servers but for example Season of Discovery season 2 where we get TBC season of discovery which dives head first into the peak vibes of TBC and its cut content, smoothening out all of it's content edges that were cut for time. Yes I would like to enter another Draenei crypt manatombs type dungeon, I would like another floating crystal dungeon, I would like some blood elf dungeons, I would love to just be in that world more the same way Season of Discovery has let us be in vanilla more without the rails of plain classic.

But they need to not make the mistake of releasing 2 big things at once again. SoD tanked in popularity because it was happening right when Hardcore became a thing and all the streamers flocked to Hardcore. If they don't release anything like that next to the new version of SoD then I bet SoD will peak in popularity.

And ngl, I wanna be a draenei shockadin.

zerocool1054: WOW made it impossible for me to enjoy other games.

VegetoStevieD: When the Smithsonian Museum hosts Vanilla and Classic realms, for the purpose of preserving history (No shadowlands Incubus added in 2022, no Body 1 and 2, no Instant Mail and Dual Spec. That's when I'll be comfortable with the situation.

CondemnedInformer: Classic ERA servers are mostly ghost towns and when the anni servers got to TBC, they'll pick up again. I hope Blizzards plan is to have TBC era and Wrath era servers as the anni servers go through the timeline. As it should have been all along. Still hyped for Classic will still play classic era though.

lukekunka317: Torghast got me to cancel my retail WoW sub. I have yet to try DF or WW.

NeonGoodcat: wow wasn't out when i was a kid lol, it was CS 1.6

nickh4354: How has Xar not seen Captain Grim before? Are you kidding me???

EhmTeeEhf: "did you guys feel wow was better than any other game out there" YES, Oh yes, in 2004 when I was lucky enough to get into the original Beta... I was hooked. I played wow for 20 years, on and off as the expansions waned I took some months away to drive the next expansion even more. BUT once retail became BFA, I constantly watched my left eye twitching saying "WTF is this...

solitzpvp4166: shit take. Ofc its possible.... how do you think we played pserver... we just played classic tbc wotlk at the same time and never really quit any expansion

BrouGames-lu7wl: Most of grims points are fair, and bfa and shadowlands were literally unplayable to me, but he also spouts multiple copy paste terrible takes about the shops that are just terrible. In the game economy we have today how do you think we have the same sub cost we had when the game first released? THE IN GAME SHOP. How do you think so many people who couldnt afford the sub otherwise get to play a game they truly still love because the token? 10s of thousands, but grims malding over it because someone is buying gear in runs he's not even doing? Insane and so totally braindead. Then to top it all off we get 50$ versions of expansion releases that not only make it realistic to buy with tokens/gold instead of money, its also 20$ -$30 below the newest industry standards. Insane to see people still grasp to the awful takes about tokens, and mounts in shops when they are the reason less fortunate people still get to play the game.

DydraLIVE: Imagine ... It's 2025 and Xaryu just now discovers Captain Grim

morganmalmgren4575: I had that moment in WoD, when I stopped and realised that I was stressing each day to do my dailys and mount farms otherwise I would lose a day of maybe getting that thing that was gatekept behind dailys and HC lockouts. Never played retail since

hamdenlange122: Absolute nostalgia in the first 5 minutes !! Especially the net café part (insert poggers) xD goddamn i miss those days! Makes me exited of the now just thinking about the then!

Huge love from Denmark Xaryu!! love the content ! <3
