It is tremendously well done from Smarthuiyuan's blog

Of course, it is tremendously well done. Exile's Reach, the tutorial experience, is a smoothly paced taster that walks you through the basics of wow classic gold and your chosen character class in a bit over an hour, culminating in a presentation mini-dungeon. As an mechanical introduction into the game, it is flawless. As an introduction into the Warcraft's planet? I am disappointed that Exile's Reach plays out identically for Alliance and Horde players, never mind players of different races. The first newcomer encounters, individual to every race, do so much to create the intense sense of belonging and cultural identity that Warcraft - a world of dream archetypes so cartoonish they get away with being, honestly, a bit crass - has no company fostering, but does. (it is possible to select the original beginner experiences rather, if it is not your native character.)

After I had tried a few different routes into the game, however, my nostalgic concerns began to look fragile in the face of the facts. Using Chromie Time - the time-warping feature, curated by an impish member of the Bronze Dragonflight - that I moved from Exile's Reach into Cataclysm's variant of the first continents; into the outdated Burning Crusade; to Legion, my favorite of the recent expansions; and eventually into hatred for Azeroth, as planned. And I had to confront itmodern World of Warcraft is too large an improvement over Cataclysm as that was over the original game. Probably bigger. As much as my veteran soul may be stirred by the sight of this canyons of Thousand Needles or the windswept Borean Tundra, there is nothing in the older game which can touch your very first sight of the excellent, burnished ziggurats of Battle for Azeroth's Zuldazar. The story is so much more assured, pulled out of the pursuit text and into the action, though your advancement through the game is provided a strong thematic spine: base-building, a war campaign, a quest for a fantastic artifact weapon. The world is not as secretive but more bountiful, dotted with treasure and boss creatures to cheap wow gold classic draw you off the beaten path. An imperceptible slot machine occasionally upgrades your quest-reward items with a flourish, simply because you deserve it. It's such a lavish experience. In the event you have to trudge through 10-year-old content for this? Of course you should not.
