Then, in 1996, id Software set the stage for the next era of the games industry - the 3D-accelerated multiplayer era. In 1993, they perfected the genre with Doom. In 1992, they essentially created a genre with Wolfenstein 3D. Where to get it: Blizzard - World of Warcraft or World of Warcraft Classic 19.
I would personally recommend Classic in order to best capture the feel of the series’ glory days, but try them both to see what really suits your play style. Who should play it?: If you don’t mind a bit of grinding, a bit of theorycrafting, or you really dig the Warcraft lore, then World of Warcraft is essential. I can’t even begin to count the hours I’ve spent playing WoW, and the release of World of Warcraft Classic was a long-awaited return to the series’ golden days. The game has had an enormous influence on both the industry and wider society, and has even provided an interesting case study for epidemiologists studying people’s reactions to a pandemic (have a read about The Corrupted Blood Incident). World of Warcraft is still going strong, and its on its eighth expansion. At its peak of over 12 million subscribers in 2008, World of Warcraft had more players than the populations of 158 different countries. World of Warcraft was the ideal blend of complexity and approachability. Blizzard’s first foray into the increasingly popular MMO genre was a huge success, and that largely boiled down to having a thorough understanding of what gamers wanted. The biggest online game of all time hardly needs any introduction.
