8 Reasons You Should Be Playing World Of Warcraft Classic

World of Warcraft has always boasted an impressive PvP system. With the war between the two factions perpetually raging, there's always scope for an Alliance vs. Horde deathmatch or a round of Warsong Gulch capture-the-flag, but it also boasts even more robust co-operative mechanics -something which, given the substantially higher difficulty level in Classic, is as necessary as ever.

Each area contains a handful of quests that most player's simply can't complete alone, and reaching out to a friend, your guild, or even complete strangers is an absolute must just to get along.

While modern WoW has long since moved away from the need to ask others for help, Classic fully embraces it, with levelling alone practically impossible in many instances.

Retail's group-finding mechanic, while a massive time saver, is one of the main causes for this. If you want to run a dungeon in Classic, you'd best hop on general chat or ask your guild to build a party, and even that's no guarantee. It may sound frustrating, but being forced to interact with others in order to achieve something makes for a pleasant change from many other online experiences.

Classic features a real emphasis on that community spirit, and making friends is as much a part of the game as anything else.
