Willie actually uploaded this video I really wanted to take a look at and it's called The Unfinished side of vanilla while we never saw from scrap zones to remove Dungeons and finish quest lines and so much more when blizzard set out to make oh my fortunately there was such a large volume of content built up that they were monitoring in the game they physically did not have time to get it all done the level count was supposed to be 70. northrend was seen on early versions of the map and the black Temple was even originally a dungeon amongst I actually didn't know that but I know that Outland was supposed to be in the game kerosene was supposed to be in the game hygel Emerald dream there were so many things that they had intended to be in the game you can actually go in if you go into deadmines and buck out of the dungeon you can find an older version of Outland inside of that mines it's actually pretty cool what's up and good to see you man so many other things I haven't seen this known as though it was packaged together in two whole expansions rather than just continuing on patch by patch and that's become the way blizzard have done major gameplay updates ever since vanilla was really unique in this regard ambitious at its outset it was the only version of wow which really would have made sense if it just did continue through patches instead of your standard expansion with its whole new zones raids quests and so on currently in the classic wow space A lot of people are looking for a bit of vanilla action oh yeah seasonal awesome thing with a tab one in the chat if you want the Freshman the vanilla Andes will always want a fresh all right there is never there's never a time where you wouldn't want a fresh it's like that oh it's so good manual experience so I thought why not highlight just how much of vanilla was not finished and ask what if we never did get expansions what content was cut or moved back and what is the side of vanilla which we never really got you'll see yeah but first a quick word from today's sponsor all of dragons I love call of dragons Reeves thank you for the eight months by the way thank you so much yeah I was about to say this looks so much like raid Shadow Legends like it's it's the exact same Vibe and allow for you to explore tons of different strategies in the way that you prefer Your Heroes to modify their skills and eventually unlock their ultimate abilities too allowing you to match your Heroes to how you want they are attraction in the world for their own unique cities apart from one another humans rely amazing wood elves are natural resources and magic and Orcs tusks and animal fairs pick and choose visual preference and create the city you want to see in the world that's amazing dragons is from the creators of Rise of Kingdoms meaning they have oh my favorite game first-hand experience increasing strategy games and want to offer a more in-depth oh you actually called who has the greater number on their side via a whole range of strategic in-game options that's amazing this is very much scratching the surface best of all you can get that fresh game release feeling as cool dragons is set to come out on March 28th you can download and pre-register right now by checking out my link below many thanks to Call of Duty sponsored today let's get back to wow okay I want to start off on some loose ends that vanilla has okay which was started and not finished until in some cases years later all right some more interesting ones and a questline which is really easy to miss following through fully starts the shadow necklace you know the deal you beat arcadies oh yeah he's talking about the discs that Quest is actually really really there's a lot of lore within two is about five Villa was either than anything else in the dungeon because classic dungeon design dilutes the chest before anyone has a chance to say anything and then you go click the large discs at the back of the room and start the quest the Platinum discs oh my gosh yeah this Quest leads into uldum if you don't know if you do the entire Quest I believe it it leads into uldum and like uldum you the guys know it came out in um oh when was it when was ultim released yet yeah so it's cataclysm it listens to um but you have to wait two patches for really this has you take your Discovery back okay Iron Forge or thunderbluff which will give a follow-up reward with some potions and a nice 14 yeah it's good but that is not with this quest line ends often miss is this unlocks a new quest which you are not directed to in any way because as a quest design cold importance of Oldham your faction historians have found that there may be a link between these discs you found in Alderman and a mysterious gate on the southern end of tanaris and the man I try I remember when I found this gate originally I tried so hard to get through it because my 10 year old brain thought that it was going to be like a whole world through that gate I mean there's literally just a wall but like you know it it just shows how immersed you can get in the game I guess I want you to take those discs there and the same thing with the gilneas gate if you go to Silver Pine Forest and vanilla you can see the big gilneas gate right that goes into gilneas see what happens upon arrival a pedestal sits outside of the gate when activated it states the player must also have the plates of uldum before access can be granted and since well you don't have them it's back to your factions capitals to report on this with the quest ominously ending be sure to check back with us soon Oldham beckons in reality it was not beckoning very hard the quest ended and Oldham as a Zone would not officially release in World of War politicalism dropped some six years or later I know a lot of people like flame cataclysm obviously for like destroying the world but they made some pretty cool zones and cataclysm as well I know they destroyed the Hall of Azeroth but like vashi was pretty sick like uldum was cool there was some cool zones for sure it's a lighter you can still see loads of comments from players who were wondering where this story would go after having finished it also I was curious had a look for the discs of Oldham in game as a physical item and I could not there's only replica discs that were added as the trash item when alderma Zone was Revisited during 8.3 in BFA okay for Qatar Deathwing just kind of blew the gate off or something that sounds a little friendly enough to me to obtain these discs of Oldham in vanilla like some kind of achievement and then open order it would have been so cool vanilla Zone speaking there's just so many things like this man that could be be potential like you know Classic Plus things as well it's same thing man imagine like a booty Bay dungeon or a raid and like a Scarlet Crusade oh my god dude I would really love Classic Plus there is another big one that so many people will have done very few ever ended up following through though after battling for records of Undead trolls solving puzzles and reminding your group to kill every Dragon mob in sight you eventually make it to the final boss of the sunken Temple dude this boss man God damn this boss is such a pain in the ass if you don't you gotta clear every single mob in the entire dungeon for us oh it pulls everything a bit of a tricky fight due to his level and spamming CC yeah but once he's down you get the chained essence of aranicus okay that poisons enemies in a small area around you which is okay stealth what you also get here is the start of a quest to go and speak to etharius who is using the amazingly scuffed old high elf model I have never done this however you have to hand in your chain Essence shrink it to the quest Giver wait I actually had no idea that you can do this I usually just kept the trinket like as an item you have made your choice And So It Begins your choices have been to date what I would consider to be correct ones your actions and deeds henceforth will determine whether this is to continue I never did this I don't even know where this guy is what okay pretty big price when half decent trinkets are just kind of well non-existent in classic so you just most part this then has a follow-up where you have to journey across the land and sea to the far away winter he's in swamp of Sorrows I didn't know that crazy thing to talk to um Branch the spirit speaker where the quest just randomly ends there isn't even a mysterious Cliffhanger it's just dude that's classic man that's such a classic blizzard movement they they literally make you sacrifice like an actual pretty good trinket to then golf to a quest that just does nothing oh my God I need to take the each each part of the quest is like a completely random end of the world right one one is the quest starts in swamp of in sorry in sunken symbol then it goes to swarm of Sorrows into winter spring and you get nothing like what straight up not finished in fact the quest makes it sound like you're gonna need to collect some object for the spirit speaker to allow him to contact and help eranicus we even found a comment on Wowhead quoting a blue post on this premature quest ending saying more will be added to the ironicus quest chain in a future patch can't reveal anything further at this time but from what I've seen it is going to be really cool and fairly rewarding all over the above I have a feeling this could have been linked into the emerald dream storyline which we can talk about later that was I remember it back in like vanilla back in like vanilla wrath days there was so many private servers doing the whole immoral dream thing because everybody thought that Emerald dream was going to be the new expansion and I'm really surprised they haven't done like a theme thing with that I mean I guess we've Dibble dabbled a little bit into it it's called hint um and it's art but not like extremely much right also not finished we had the world dragons but there wasn't enough yeah the world dragons was like a little bit of an intro though to it right like it was the dragons from the emerald dream or whatever you could say right rumors are that we learn more about it in dragonfly I mean if there is a time to do it in terms of you know lore and stuff it's probably in a dragon-based expansion right for sure with the emerald dream and stuff because like there's the aspects and stuff like that right but we'll see during vanilla similar to Oldham this could serve as a point to pick up an interesting storyline for players to explore or at least finish a questline and add in some kind of other rewards it was cool to give in your trinket for a bit of XP and gold one more Quest related one now or I guess more of a reputation grind though far north oh no man dude I remember I did this grind oh my God oh my dude don't do this guys man all right this if you want to get this tiger is the um it's the most grindy thing ever I did this way way back in the day on my warrior right because I really really wanted the the the tiger um and I really I was so I think it look I thought it looks so cool so I started grinding for it right and it was weeks upon weeks of doing it every single day just grinding it up and farming the mops and doing stuff like that right and eventually I had exalted I was like damn finally I can get the tiger um I Then I then went over to the NPC and I realized that it was an alliance only Mount and I have been grinding the the furball grip in fellwood instead so I looked up the the wrong rep and I looked up the wrong faction and I had been farming the fur bulk like whatever the winter more tribe whatever they're called on an orc male warrior trying to get a winter winter spring Frost save or whatever it's called so I did the wrong faction I did the wrong rip and I would oh my God man spring are they creatively named winter spring trainers one night elf chilling quite literally on top of a rock farming right through repeatable quests with this one-man faction will eventually unlock all Winter Springs like look how cool it looks I am so not angry I'm sad that they didn't introduce the unarmored Epic mounts in classic they should have introduced them for like a month or something or two if you were really fast at leveling and like you could do it before the first patch came out you could get that on Armor Mount I don't know why they didn't do that a unique recolor of this Mount so you can stand out a little bit in the crowd however it being a night elf it's a pregnant monkey being Alliance only but what if I told you the horde was supposed to have their own counterpart to this quest in vanilla too because I'm pretty sure that they did yep the little guy with the Raptor for some reason is an NPC in classic and they didn't make the quest actually available till oh I can't remember the Wrath or Canada something like that but it just never got finished in hungaro Crater there are two NPCs one to the southeast and one to the north west to a part of the rabbit cataclysm okay these were removed at the start of TBC but in Wrath you can head over to morvec in the Southeast and start to learn how to eventually own your own these quests are really just for the completionist who wants an excuse to play the game more and Chase a hard Mount but it would be a pretty easy thing to add into vanilla to me it's not a hard Mound I think you just do you have to do like a daily 20 times it's not really a hard mode it's pretty much guaranteed if you do it right mirror a piece of content which ended up being Alliance only a much bigger part of the game next and one that underwent many changes from alpha to release in vanilla okay those are being the MPC and character models that we use in the game I read online now and again I remember seeing some of the old models man for like trolls and stuff they used to look so scuffed man some people are interested in using updated models in vanilla but what if we went the other way instead oh God brought back more usage of the older now to be fair they are used now and again in the dead Minds that some of these miners are using the old human worker variants and defias ambushes can spawn as part of an event just outside they look pretty cool though I always thought these looked pretty cool they're like a unique model maybe because it's because they're unique that it that they look cool but they just look interesting right the Stormwind these guys have a more thin rogie type appearance they do certain South Sea Pirates also use old models they look cool there's actually plenty of examples that made it into the lives as well remember the old character models that there used to be okay they really didn't undergo too many changes that's pretty normal oh I don't like early Undead or the infamous female troll dude that one right there honestly it would be kind of cool to have this model in the game it looks so it looks like a troll man like hiding under the bridge or something a little bit different from that and I would play this man I would I would run around as one of those adults when you see some of these old models you guys start to realize why why does she look so big why is she so massive maybe it's the POV but she looks like insanely big like like like she's wide holy explicit in some cases decided that they would be better off canning them rather than trying to shoe hold up to the game somewhere but perhaps it could be a bit more variety to character customization add something to the not that one we are used to or just to throw some of the questionable models back into the game as NPCs or enemies but the area where the most content didn't make it into the game compared to how much was planned okay to be zones which is crazy if you think about it because vanilla is by a huge margin the largest version of wow ever among the capital it's cool and there's so many different zones man vanilla is I I like I love like the world of vanilla tools of Azeroth the one that perhaps underwent the most changable Alpha einforge was very different to the end result that we got on launch maybe navigating Old Iron Forge would be rough but it looks so cool multiple layers of like uh of like layers you know what I mean right it just it looked cool with far more narrow Pathways throughout the city Bridges all over the place it's called to support houses and stores and the center of great Forge was well a lot more forgy as opposed to the huge pool of lava that we have now comparatively iron forged these days is a lot more open and has more of a grand and Majestic feeling to it as opposed to a more dark and gritty Dwarven sea I kind of like this version maybe it's because it's the version we don't have so I prefer this version but I kind of like the the whole like it's like you're in a in like a cave like some sort of a you know it it has more dwarf Vibes I think let's see explorers over the years yeah World of Warcraft have also shown off old ironford this one we've all seen a lot of veins an unused location underneath ironforge that was present in game files and it's gonna still be explored to this day if you know how to clip through the wall this location was later used in the 4.1 PTR during cataclysm okay return to this particular area to give players an official chance to see what happens yeah this sorry this thing right here this door you could fear a player through this door and then you could clip through the door and you could actually go down to Old Iron Forge like the city like that not the city but like that little area with the crystals you could do that or you could uh or you could also sheep or you could go up up on top on ironforge go over to the airport all the way down to that little farm that's above Wetlands there's a little cave you can go into use slow fall and then jump over to Iron Forge and you're gonna be like slowly like jumping into like the place and if you timed it just perfectly you would land in the lava below where the lava is be able to jump down and then time it perfectly by jumping into the wall and then you would actually jump through the wall into that place down there it's kind of cool lurking below for all this if there's a window you can clip through too yeah probably I didn't know about the window but yeah these two are new next up ashara it always felt like a Zone which was lacking on yep content aside from a couple quests specifics is cool a location for plenty of the sunken Temple class Quest and the incredibly inconveniently oh God the ranked all that much are there and there's quite likely some good reasons Jesus guys stop was planned for ashara but it just didn't end up happening yeah there are two major things that we know about both of which ended up getting scrapped the Battlegrounds the Battlegrounds yeah this was going to be another PVP addition to the game this would have been sick Dota or MOBA gameplay theme to it though this would have been so sick oh my God I would have loved this man that would have been awesome how that would have worked in an MMO I'm not entirely sure but if blizzard did do it then there would have been a very early adopter to the third person mober this battle Yeah like some sort of like a I don't know there was like an event once every once in a while you would go and they would like you know NPCs would start spawning and stuff like that it would be sick man the grand idea was in consideration as early as patch one point yeah it is and will be a repeat topic for blizzard during wrath even brought up for Mr Pandaria unfortunately it fell to the Wayside and never came to the light and has been sitting out as a missing piece of content ever it's a shame these days I think having a MOBA type Battleground in an MMO when the MOBA genre has existed for so many years now it wouldn't be as ever established might be a bit of a tough sell another major piece of content was the Bay of storms instance oh many screenshots online of a placeholder yeah vanilla beta for this back then every single instance portal looked like the dark portal by the way very little is known about what this subzone could have held was it going to be a day oh my goodness would have been so cool man yo I mean they literally have all the the things for like a potential classic plus they just need to do these things right was it going to be underwater would it have made a shower yeah of an active Zone and say one thing about ashara though it's maybe that blizzard did not want it to be seen it's a very beautiful Zone when you're flying above it but for a game with no fine mounts the way the zone is set out can be very frustrating when you're either doing there's like five quests swim to get between quests or try not to fall off a cliff to your doom green metal is another Sub Zone with an interesting story that could be realized in bro they're just baiting they're baiting with the uldum they're baiting with the Grim Patrol hijel it's literally the all the things are there they just didn't do them karasen is literally there as well it's so crazy like vanilla was so ambitious in the game as a short rundown of one of the stories that's happened there it was once home that's true I mean yeah I agree mother like it it makes it like I think a lot of the interesting things about MMOs and open world games or the uh the unknown right it's it's just there's so much like so much like mystery and like oh what's over here what what could be through that door I think that's what that's what make the game what it is I suppose right was hell captive brim Patel served as a baseball yeah the Orcs aim to raise a secret army to lay waste to the alliance however an unlikely Force Allowed by Ronin managed to free her where she went on to destroy the remainder of the Dragon we did this later though no we don't need to copy paste the storyline maybe having Alex strasa being held captive In classical oh my God this dungeon a bit much but a mid-level dungeon involving the dragon more in the wetlands good work there aren't exactly a ton of dungeons around that area and it would be very much in line with an existing enemy already found in that zone you you could you could just take these potential things that wasn't classic that was turned into something else and then go a different direction with them in a classic plus right it could be sick it's kind of interesting it's like a diary of thinking of developers yeah I agree fosterone plus might be copium you're right manner but I you know I'm moving on now the Hellfire Peninsula was also in development during vanilla yep that would only go on to be released during TBC it was expected to be a later game look how funky this looks like the little I I think this looks so weird man it's a cool looking Zone you can definitely see they took inspiration from Eastern play glands with it though with the way that it looks right but it it looks so funky and so and from looking at it it's quite reminiscent of its energy versions have way more items flying in the air though similar to how nagrand ended up being I think putting Hellfire in vanilla would be difficult though it's kind of inexorably linked to the idea of going through the dark pool it doesn't work like that across that threshold well surely it has to be a lot more than just one new Zone especially when that zone isn't this did look epic though I will say different from what ends up being playable in the expansion another piece of TBC content present in vanilla was the cabins of time located hey up top one in the chat if you tried blocking through this portal before it's the same thing you it's the mystery of the game that makes what it is right in eastern to Norris through some creative wall jumping you can get in there and yep well it's basically exactly what shipped alongside TVC they had already time has always been a very intriguing place whenever there's a need to put something in the game which doesn't really fit with a timeline just throw it in the caverns of time bronze dragonfly job done bro time whenever time travel is introduced and anything it always is so weird man because you can just make anything up at that point right this place has allowed for the wild devs to tell many stories from the past all over again again it fits into vanilla and to what extent it could be used but if it was well Warcraft 3 certainly has enough story packed into it through many instances off of one of world of warcraft's most famous race I surely would deserve a chance for a reboot and song surely I mean Beyond vanilla it's both a Raiden TBC and a two-part dungeon in Legion and of course the the Remake was pretty cool though I will say that the the legion remade version of kerosene was a very very interesting take on it man it was so so cool actually like very magical and stuff I was talking about karazhan from World of warcraft's Alfred was already put into this location yeah it was insane room after room being sculpted out though it was definitely in need of a lot more she kind of thick is this like an older version see I think this is an old model right look there are also the crypts below I mean I didn't mean it like you know she her model was thick that's what I meant like the model was thicker you know I think all the alpha models were just like way bigger and more like not clunky but just like larger right horrible for a very long time oh my God they were never used the Crips actual game until I believe Legion for certain bro the um oh my gosh and I I have played a lot of custom private servers back in the day and I remember man this Crypt these kerosene Crips was used for so many custom dungeons this could be such a cool dungeon man like you could there could be bosses in here that there could be so many cool things in this place man than artifact weapons such as the moon King side the upside down Sinners the sun is a mysterious and magical all these people that are all here guys are people that didn't post enough Park Champs in my chat location though more or less everything could go here in regards to it being a dungeon race raiding content maybe you even have it be a Zone where the inside of the tower is considerably larger than it appears from the outside in Minecraft It's Magic right as mentioned earlier the emerald dream has had frequent mentions throughout the warcraft Universe in night of questing moon Glide Druid questing as well as the huge physical portals that the green dragon world boss's guard scattered across the world the closest we've gotten to an emerald dream in World of Warcraft was The Nightmare somewhat disappointing opening raid of Legion DM I never did this I feel like when there whenever whenever a raid maybe this is just me whatever there's just like portals everywhere oh you go through the branch there's a portal then you teleport over here this here is teleport over here it feels a little bit like lazy like you could make people like slide down something or like go down here like a little tunnel or something instead of it it's just like portals it doesn't feel like a raid right so it's like it's like an instance within an instance right it's a shame there was only small rate in Legion yeah the bosses were pretty fun I didn't rate this but I've I've done it for like uh transmog runs and stuff like that a long time ago right even looks worse than the classic Emerald dream yeah World nightmare the only Legacy that left behind was it being one off if not the easiest Mythic raids of all time oh really it's cleared in a bit over 12 hours on its opening day it didn't work for much of a world first race that one I will say after having defeated xavius the area afterwards was a nicer look into how the dream would have been that's crazy a classic there was technically an emerald dream in the game finals which as you can imagine was huge open expansive feelings yeah alien plants and colossal trees on AC it's kind of cool endless scale though it just never quite found its way into being a completed idea even though it was indicated at an early stage that a lot of work had gone into it yeah Jeff Kaplan being quoted as saying the emerald dream is shaping up to be extremely cool down to preview any of the content yet as it is end game and we want some surprises for players oh my God this this is such a shame to hear man that they were actually making it and they they had it like planned and stuff 2003 Man Down is massive and beautiful and once the content team is done with it exceedingly challenging it almost sounds as though there was a lot more done than just a level design here maybe when I cooked up back then was you it was cool for expansion in a not so obvious way yes they're gonna do Emerald dreams soon It's Gonna Come very soon it's only been 19 years guys tends to be the case speaking of content used in a future expansion housing yeah this goddamn portal in Stormwind man like it's literally in Stormwind and yeah they actually had a housing plan I completely forgot about this shouldn't the World of Warcraft team at one point were very much this stupid portal housing housing had been a feature of many what is this stressful predecessors to World of Warcraft such as Star Wars ultimate online and while blizzard weren't exactly out to redesign the wheel with World of Warcraft now were they from the very outset of World of Warcraft oh my God there's the ability to create their own home or something under consideration it just never took that top priority spot to really be worked on over other features that is so funny yeah remnants of it remain in the game such as the portal behind a pool Palace in Stormwind so this was to be the entrance to the residential district eventually I think we can say one of two things happened to housing and certainly very ambitious but this was the most disappointing thing ever man I was really hyped to choose a spot for my base and like build it and like make my own cool base and we just got oh you could use one spot and it's only for this one thing and it's like it was it was the place for chores that was it fun life player's feeling is that they had a little reason to leave their own instance like holy world as everything they needed was right there more sense cheeses funeral residence could have been interpreted from the class order Halls housing was a bad idea I don't think so practice and learning like Final Fantasy does a really good job at housing from what I understand another final fantasy player but from what I understand like the housing in that game is actually pretty goddamn good you know BDO housing I didn't I don't know if pdos housing I've never played BDO but uh from what I get it's been it's good yeah what's up brexit as well so got a glorious skybound Arena and rogue's got a murky sewer I'm surprised they haven't tried to bring all the holes back with housing you have it somewhere to put your blender okay calm down need to be honest it could be a core expansion feature as far as I'm concerned but we have never had housing as it's been seen yeah as in a customizable building to choose things such as item placement decoration theme and so on I really don't know how housing would fit into classic whether it makes sense there is kind of isn't that isn't this the house in goldshire that has like that demonic those demonic kits that make like a pentagram or it might be another house I'm thinking about no I think this is that house nice thing about it yeah I think it is and so on being busy and if you want something to be personal to the player does it have to be separate yep there they are maybe it just wasn't meant to be it really is amazing just how much content was planned for vanilla and to look back and see what just needed a few more expansions to come to life I think it goes without saying I've definitely been speculating from a classic plus angle for sure too and I hope this shows how much extra stuff there possibly could be in classic they're just keeping things very true to how the game was back then anything else big that you think is worth a mention always up to look into the history of World of Warcraft yeah that's cool let me know below and as always thank you all so much for watching and listening good video and I'll see you on the next one really good video very soon I think there's so much that can be done with classic though if they do go down like a vanilla plus route there's tons of content already in the game that they had planned to do that they could choose like capitalize on and make but Classic Plus does take a lot of resources and it does take a lot of work so I'm not sure if they're gonna go down that route maybe they're just gonna give you know fresh perhaps hardcore I think hardcore is a lot more like a hardcore official version is a lot more plausible than a classic Plus at least for the time being right but honestly really good video from Willie um [Music] foreign [Music]
