7:23 This right here, the split second when the character starts flying without the actual hippogryph shows you that this video was made by a true WoW lover. Incredible and relatable video.
All of his videos on any given game are written/scripted or whatever you call it by veterans who have invested thousands of thousands play time in them. That's the only thing that makes them funny and relevant to watchers, else it would be just empty animation.
I don't know what's more impressive; Your attention to all the little details that only WoW players would notice - or your dedication to a 40 minute joke.
@@Monko_pop it was actually added in WotLK. There was only 1 boat and a Flight path in BC. But they made it 3 boats in WotLK with one going to teldrassil, One to Exodar and one to Stormwind.
I´d LIKE to say - "Never happened to me, genius." Buuuut... Been there done that. Not that badly, though, just a "quick" 15 minutes of walking away XD I had my own traveller chars, starting somewhere else, far, far away, but moving to Goldshire (for Roleplay reasons, but also because I knew every nook and crannie there). Imagine forgetting to set hearth after you´ve done all THAT. OOOF. That would mean a forced break for a few hours to me. Maybe punching some pillows and howl like a mad man. The standard stuff, you know ?
I DID THE SAME! See the Goldshire Innkeeper! Just for fun, I would start a new 'toon and spend the whole night trying to outwit all the critters who were killing me......One night I "swam" all the way to the north end of the continent........Then I would take the deal to rez at a strange Spirit Guide. The toughest run was through the Barrens with a new Orc.... Ah man, the weird shit we do for fun.....
Do you think the people who were hired to do the voice lines in vanilla ever thought how memorable and cherished their voices would be to millions of people?
@@Metalton95 I was playing D2 with some friends while we were on voice chat ,and I did that,then I explained it was easy for me,because you start off doing Beavis going "HEH HEH HEH,HEH HEH HEH,HEH HEH HEH",then,went right into RAKANISHU"........lmfao :p
Lol riiight...I was just thinking the same thing...if someone wanted to capture this all they either were lvl capped and didn't aggro anything or they edited out all the corpse dragging.
@@Isuzu_Paul Yeah OR it could be a rogue or druid with a gopro, prowling or in stealth. Higher level chars run quite fast even while stealthed you know
I'm convinced they just recorded the audio of actually doing this run and then just animated on top of it. I'm not sure what's more ridiculous - that this got made so accurately or that I sat and watched the whole damn thing and enjoyed the nostalgia (multiple times).
inaccurate, the boat is always just leaving when you get to the dock and let's be real we always try to make that last second jump and end up swimming back to shore
Me: Watching the start of this video. "Wow. That Night Elf is walking at a surprisingly accurate pace." About a minute later... "Don't tell me..." *checks length of video* "Son of a bitch. He did it. That crazy bastard really did it!"
This hurts so much! I cannot count the times that I made this journey, because none of my friends wanted to play elves. How many times I died in the wetlands, how many times i just ran and watched the scenery go by... This video just made me homesick for a video game... 💔 Thank you so much!
Im going to tell you something that might make u feel like u wasted ur time. But u can skip wetlands if you swim SW from menethil harbor and swim far enough into dun morogh and die to fatiege. Then u rez right next to ironforge :)
part of me is like "how the hell are hundreds of thousands of people watching a video thats basically a 40 minute walking animation?!?" ....also me: "this is the most relatable video ive seen in my LIFE"
@@Graciatus To be fair, that was later patched out so that you'd revive at the nearest spirit healer to where you died... Man did I hate when that change was made.
Bro...its wild that im really committed to watching this entire video and within 5 minutes of it you can tell its just the by the book journey to elwyn lmfao....im so mad at myself for enjoying every second of it lmfao
Every civilian that she passed was a flight master. The night elf said that she only needed to get to elwynn. The night elf made it but accidentally hearthed. The night elf said why god? Why does everything bad happen to me? God said what you mean dummy? I put flight paths for ya.
Yes, thought the same. Then I realized that they are meeting a friend and might want to miss the FPs so they can share the experience of acquiring them.
17:03 a nod to when u look away for even a second while ur on autorun only to look up to see you’ve been running in to a fence the entire time is the quintessential wow experience
i made this journey with a friend who was adamant about being a night elf druid. we were a party of 4, a humans dwarf and a gnome. we made the journey to the NE starting zone to get him because he was completely new to wow. we made potions and repaired our gear for the long road ahead of us. man.....the travel itself was an adventure. i love that memory. sometimes just traveling with homies from one town to the text was just amazing itself.
I kinda wondered if it would show her walking into the goldshire inn, walking out with a disturbed look on her face and hearthing herself back to shadowglen lol
I'm very sure this would be the average amount of time to run from Teldrassil to Elywnn. I made the trip many times back in Vanilla, it was definitely more than half an hour.
Me: *starts watching* "This is suprisingly detailed, Is he really going to animate the entire-" *checks video time* "OH. MY. GOD." Also wow, you even animated the little visual bug at 7:24 where your character flies through the air for less than a second before the flight master's mount spawns. This is so good, it almost doesn't deserve to exist.
"Me: starts watching "This is suprisingly detailed, Is he really going to animate the entire-" checks video time "OH. MY. GOD."" I have done the same thing ! XD
2004: I ran my 10 NElf Hunter all the way up to Tirisfal because I convinced myself the white bat, Ressan the Needler was the best pet ever. Bone headed baby I was, It was worth it. ...Son of Arugal did not greet me nicely.
I ran a bloodelf to lordaeron, through the plaguelands, afterwards I complained to a cousin about it and he told me about the teleport thingy in silvermoon to lordaeron.
My first character ever was a night elf, that music brings me so far back. I also love that this is the actual journey you needed to take to get to elwynn back in the day. If I was a nelf hunter I stopped on the way to get gun training too. Edit: I watched the whole thing and I'm glad I did. I knew where she was at all times by the tiny landmarks and was curious why she didn't set stone at any inns along the way lol! I lived vicariously through that little elf as I never made that run again after I got the Heirloom Chauffeur, but it was such a treat to see it again. Edit 2: I'm back again, just having it on in the background. This is my official chill video.
i started playing in wod. wasnt there a boat at rut'theran to sw docks??? i know we have the portal now but thats because the kul tiras boat replaced where i remember it being.
also the buffs were so f.... great before they nerfed them to % versions, asked one mage to buff me in stormwind, and dealt hell lot of damage through that
I AM THAT GUY... they call me "THE MAD BUFFER" (well not while they took away that buff.. what an idiotic idea THAT was). THANK GOD I DONT NEED CANDLES ANYMORE >.>
If you made it to the end you are a true WoW veteran and a cool person. I salute you!!! Every time i played an alliance char i went to level up in the elven zones because of the beautiful green forests and the fantastic music. Even as an Orc player, i always did a full quest run of Ashenvale forest just to hear the beautiful music. I always had a deep respect for the night elves for making such heavenly music and i never supported the Horde's campaign to cut down the forest by not participating in the WSG battleground. Ashenvale was always my second home in WOW. :)
I watched the whole thing. To be honest it made me realize how great the sound is in wow. Also, bravo to the sheer amount of artwork you created for this. Must have been Wrath because you got shielded by the priest without being in group and also the dranei on the ele LOL.
The music of Teldrassil will always be my favorite. MY first character was Nelf Druid and the first time hearing all the music in the zone gave me goosebumps. I remember doing this run so many times, either by myself or with friends.
I love how this game connects so many strangers across the world. We all at some point made the periless run across Wetlands to level in our favourite starter zone, such a simple nostalgic experience shared by so many. I miss you Azeroth.
It's too bad that blizzard has killed so many years of nostalgia for me. Knowing what was going on behind the scenes as the new generations of developers came into power I cannot financially support the company anymore. I am happy that I get to keep the memories
I'm torn nowadays... I appreciate that the game is more streamlined and respects your time, but the feeling of accomplishment after you spent months grinding AV to get your first purple was something else and you just can't get that nowadays when everything is so instantly accessible.
@@fdsfds7339 I think they mean shadowmoon valley and yea the zone gets kinda bland sometimes but c'mon theres a story about death knights and green lava and guldannnnnn D:
You know it's amazing, from how much you've played, that you can literally predict the next aggro or sound effect just by the change of music WITHOUT LOOKING.
Omg the spacegoat on the boat was hilarious! Seriously tho the nostalgia just watching this instantly sent me back to when I first journeyed to the eastern kingdoms on my Nelf warrior and also got eaten by a crocolisk! Thank you!
Watching 40 minutes of an animation of a journey I wouldn't take, for the faction I wouldn't play, in a game I quit playing, while telling my boss how valuable my time is.
Gods this is such a satisfying animation. Completely captures that feeling in the good days of auto-running from first spawn to your favorite place. All the little details Carbot got as well. Just a big old smile on me face. Carbot needs to do a Tauren one now.
The first character i ever created was a night elf so Teldrassil was the first zone i played and i loved it so much. It broke my heart when blizz destroyed Teldrassil.
I'm convinced that the reason classic wow is so nostalgic was that the music is some of the best I've heard in any game. I get nostalgic just hearing it, and also wow being the first mmo many people ever played
I'd say that FFXIV has a better soundtrack in my opinion. But yeah, WoW was/is probably the first real mmorpg for many players due to it being really the first mainstream mmorpg.
@@MrQwertysystem nah, ff14 music is good, but the music in wow has this blend of ambiance and nostalgia that is just too good. Just an opinion though, to each their own
When I saw how long the video was I thought this was gonna be a compilation of multiple cartoons. Then it just kept going, and going, and going lol. Absolutely spot on, and so many moments that only real wow player would know.
Ironically with my first character a human mage, I went to Auberdine with the boat at 15 I guess, knowing warcraft 3 I wanted to see the Nelfs so bad for the first time and I level up to 30 till Ashenvale, the ambient, the forest and the music were amazing, a truly great experience. Best decision in my WOW life.
As an old night elf player(first and only character) that leveled before cataclysm, the NE leveling experience up to astranaar will be with me till I die. I completely understand you! although I dont play anymore BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! AGREED!
I saw the end coming a million miles away, but hell yeah I wasn't disappointed. Still remember making this trek in Vanilla in order to learn 2-handed swords as a Nelf hunter. Felt like it took all afternoon, but what an epic journey.
I remember there were days i would just stand there on a higher level character and just kill it as low level night elves would try and pass by and they would all cheer me lol.
@@akashic7348 I know your comment is a year old, but TH-cam decided to remind me of this comment today for some reason. So, in regard to that as someone who has played World of Warcraft in the past, would you say that it is worth at all for a new player to get into? Because I am interested and looking for opinions
@@bobbyferg9173 I’m tempted to say no but obviously the fact that there are still people playing this game shows that a lot of people disagree. I’ve never accomplished the goal of leveling every class to max but I’ve gotten close and I can tell you that nowadays all classes feel pretty similar, they’ve dumbed them down a lot over the years. Also one of my fondest memories from vanilla is using the tailoring profession to craft myself a pretty good epic robe, but these days gear from professions is nearly useless and professions themselves kind of suck. However in the upcoming expansion it appears as if they want to address these issues by bringing back talent trees for classes and making professions better. Only time will tell if they’ll succeed in making the game feel more like it did back then. I would recommend that you wait until at least one month after the new expansion comes out and see what the streamers (not gaming news articles) are saying about it. WoW is a subscription game and you may want to see if it’s worth your money. Because for example if you’re looking mainly for an open world RPG with quests to complete you could be better off with a single player offline game like The Witcher 3.
This sent me down such a nostalgia trip… I’m surprised that the actual images all those places came to mind. What made me tear up though, was the realization that magic, awe and exploration used to be real at some point in life, how I wish I would’ve cherished those moments more. This was the best thing in a while. Thank you.
I love this, It reminds me when I started playing. My brother was a human and I created a nelf, so he told me to go to elwynn so he could help me. I ended up going to azshara thinking that there might be a ship there to go to the other continent. Obviusly it didn't go well, I died like a hundred times to skull lvls.. but those are the good old days memories that we all love :3
I wanted to level my Gnome in Teldrassil because my gf got a nelf. Being a noob I didn't know shit about the ships, but there was the moonlight event, so I could teleport to moonglade and walk down felwood, I know that feeling :D
watched it all for nostalgia of the wetlands run. Still remember getting all the way to Elwynn and doing some Quests and hearthing to hand in... and was back at god damned Telldrasill. Scarred me for life
@@brucehan8460 *fumes over that joke of a female high elf gone psycho* Liked her at 1 point, but when she did that - instant hate. My 1st ever toon was night elf.
Woah! This is like a movie of all things that made our childhood great. Brb, let me grab a popcorn, some drinks and a comfy pillow so I can enjoy this trip properly.
Every time in vanilla when i was bored, i searched for a little elves who need help and we walked the whole way, but i made the long run, and checked all the flying points with them. 😊 It was such a nice time in my live.
The sounds in this make me so nostalgic lol. I wish the game and the company itself were in a better place. I've always wanted them to do well. We shall see how it turns out. Also, that ending echoes in my soul.
I was thinking "he's almost there" when you got to darkshore and then I realized "wait, this is WoW Classic, oh man this is gonna be long". Loved every step of it.
@@Pynot TBC because of Draenei and the highelf in Auberdine, but not Wrath; otherwise the trip to Menethil and long walk to IF would have been omitted. with the harbour in SW the Darkshore-SW voyage became a very short one :)
Back in 2005 on release day (yes, 2005, I'm from Europe) my first char was a human, and I wanted to join a friend who was a night elf. I went for the run, but the thing is, I didn't know there were two ships in Menethil, so I took the one I saw - to Theramore. Dustwallow Marsh and the Barrens and the whole Ashenvale really added to the experience :-)
i did something similar, running the same was as in this video, but at that time i had never been to ironforge, so i ddint know about the Tram...so i ran trough all zones between menethil and elwynn
You kinda had to do the same with the Warlock's Succubus quest back in the day, requiring you to get an item in Ashenvale. Traveling through the Horde's Barrens as a crappy lvl.20 caster was terrifying, I had to take for the hills and do a roundabout trip not to get ganked and then camped.
It has been now fifteen years... since I did the same to go questing in Ashenvale... and only after reading your comment have I noticed I could've taken the other boat...
On my first character I tried to run from Elwynn to Ironforge... and I didn't know about the Deeprun Tram. So I ran Elwynn - Redridge - Burning Steppes... never did make it to Searing Gorge, as I'd rezzed right next to the Horde FP and got locked into a rez-aggro-death loop.
This reminds me of my times running up to Scarlet Monastery as an Alliance. It was a task many couldn’t be bothered to take on. I had that run down to a science, but the thrill of sneaking RIGHT passed the front gates of Undercity just KNOWING a ganking was around every corner… Sometimes meeting cool horde along the way. But the final push to get into the Monastery was no joke, with horde often camping the entrances/exits. These are the moments the I’ve never been able to recapture with any game since! Vanilla WoW was special for so many folks like me
This hit me so hard it hurts. The music, the small touches. That damn run. I've never been homesick in my life, but this made me fysically hurt from homesickness. Thanks for this, I love it.
I don't think anything in recent years has made me want to go back and play more then this video of a person running for 40 minutes, which maybe says a lot about both the game, and me.
Same for me. I haven't played in a decade or more but this brought back so many memories. I made this exact run with a nelf of mine back in the day. The memories of the cesspool that was Goldshire on my RP server. Good times. Alas I'm too old and jaded to do the whole MMORGP thing again.
@@aarengraves9962 my friend, i played back in retail vanilla, and this video is incredibly accurate and a fantastic piece of nostalgia for a time when i had more time than sense, and wow was magical. it may not be to you, but i thought i'd provide you some context why i love this video.
you realize that literally NOBODY does that at lvl 1 right? You must be mad to do this run at level 1. Level 5 or 10 is common, but level 1?.... nahh doesn't make any sense@@kkplx
@@aarengraves9962 You're wrong, many people do. I have done it, and have seen dozens on the road in wetlands doing it. In fact, it was a weekly occurrence back in the day to have someone in guild chat talking about how they rolled up a NE and are doing the run. People also did it after getting to the 5-10 range, but nonetheless, it happens at level 1 as well.
Ahh, the Menethil Run. I remember this from back in my starter days, when Burning Crusade was the latest expansion. I remember hating the mountain pass that housed a gauntlet of Dragonmaw orcs to the point that after being killed for the sixth time I lost patience with it, turned back around and headed to Menethil... And then proceeded to swim, that's right, SWIM, half the length of the Eastern Kingdoms to reach Westfall. Took me just over an hour if I remember rightly, but damn was it satisfying to finally see the vibrant greenery of Elwynn.
You can also swim out along the coast of wetlands, die to morlocks over there and appear in the gy near if and res sickness, but lvl 1 res sickness is just durability loss to 0 armor gear lol
Swimming... I remember swimming around the coast of Quel' Thalas after BC was released (but I hadn't bought it yet) to see how it would appear - quite useless though, of course. And also I remember swimming (as an Orc) the coast of Stormwind to complete that achievement of fishing in both Orgrimmar and Stormwind.
I still remember making that journey when I was 11 years old with a group of 5 people who were between lvl 5 and 13, on my first character ever. Except our guide didn't know you could go from Auberdine to Menethil Harbor. So he made us walk all the way to the Barrens (going through the border with Orc guards who would one shot us), and then to Theramore, to get to Menethil Harbor and continue on with the journey. It took us at least two hours to get to our destination because of all the deaths and the *huge* detour we took, but to this day it's still one of my best memories ever in a video game.
@@akashic7348 Yeah, going to dungeons was such a big adventure back then. Going to Shadowfang Keep and Wailing Caverns was a pretty big journey too at the time as a low level Alliance player.
I was screaming inside during the whole thing "The flying points!", "Hearthstone in IF, SW or Goldshire!!", as soon as I saw the human using the HS I knew what was coming lol
I was expecting the character to get a class quest that sends them back to Night Elf land. Like the Druid shapeshift quest or the Hunter taming quest. The hunter one, man, where you HAVE to do it in your starting zone even though the class can be the race of the zone you're levelling in, but nope, you're not allowed to do their race variant of the quest!
@@caffi1 It seemed like it was missing some parts that should have been explored, and including parts that wouldn't have been explored (parts of Dun Morogh)so he may have been using maps from other characters.
I love the little detail of the npc sounds, it's accurate because is like playing "I spy" in a long travel to avoid feeling bored, clicking all the npcs I met.
Amazing video, my first vanilla character was a night elf priest. same hair color. I ran like this all the way to Azshara having no clue where I was going, just seeing the world. I remember in Azshara a horde Tauren player was there. He freaking escorted my lost noob self all the way back to the town Astranaar in Ashenvale! It was a pvp server. One of my first lasting memories of WoW.

Hi doomsinger
The build up was real though. Countless times i have forgot to set my hearth after running 30 minutes + just to hearth and forget i didn't set my home
@@jbeard3390 It only happened once for me; I was so annoyed I never forgot again.
Yes
I agree so much to you xd
The only inaccuracy is that the deeprun tram wasn't already leaving as she walked into the station.
I legit thought she was gonna walk in as the tram took off and have to wait for the next one.
Truthfully in my case theres a lack of /dance on the tram and boat lol...
Also didn't pick up any flight points lol
I expected her to jump while on the move and land on the final car with a scared expression.
😅
Love the guard in Elwynn that asks "Forget something?" Such beautiful foreshadowing.
If no one get this, this is real time running to the human leveling zone within the game and the mannerisms as a player. Brilliant work!
Yep. I did this 2 times. Relatively exactly the time you need when you take the safest possible route.
Stay crunchy.
Do you know why he didnt take a second boat directly to the human capital?
@@Cryten0 i dont think that boat exists till cataclysm
Did this many times
@@Monko_pop it was actually added in WotLK. There was only 1 boat and a Flight path in BC. But they made it 3 boats in WotLK with one going to teldrassil, One to Exodar and one to Stormwind.

I call shenanigans. Noone ever catches the deeprun tram on time. It always leaves as soon as you get there.
It takes almost 1 minute (0:55) to go one route. Might aswell be a 3 minute cycle or so (2x1min + 2x30s waiting)
I was going to comment this. This must be the luckiest Night Elf I've ever seen.
since i started playing wow at the begining of TBC i have actually caught the train like that only once
it usually shows up on the other side as soon as you come in but there isn't enough time to run over and catch it
Where were all the rats in the tram area!?
I'm convinced they just recorded the audio of actually doing this run and then just animated on top of it. I'm not sure what's more ridiculous - that this got made so accurately or that I sat and watched the whole damn thing and enjoyed the nostalgia (multiple times).

But u can skip wetlands if you swim SW from menethil harbor and swim far enough into dun morogh and die to fatiege. Then u rez right next to ironforge :)

yep...this
Yes, thought the same. Then I realized that they are meeting a friend and might want to miss the FPs so they can share the experience of acquiring them.
17:03 a nod to when u look away for even a second while ur on autorun only to look up to see you’ve been running in to a fence the entire time is the quintessential wow experience
I had to laugh because that is so me. I'll mentally auto-pilot and then Fence! Or Wall! Or Rock!
You know you've played too much Warcraft when you recognize every single leg of this flick.
Im horde only i have no idea about any of this exp.
💯
lol
I haven't played the game in over a decade and I still recognized every little bit
@@sikkableeat5614 exactly! It's borderline terrifying!
when he spacebar'd 2-3 times and got no flip.. i felt it.
Carbot the madman. We all did this journey and he animated it in realtime.
Well, unless your journey led you through the Barrens.
Not everybody here is rude little brat who plays for sole purpouse of spoiling the game and fun for other people. There are Horde players too.
I didn't.
@@Mediados And Stranglethorn :')
@@Biouke Let the Alliance play in their forest, the dust of Kalimdor is where real warriors are made!
i made this journey with a friend who was adamant about being a night elf druid. we were a party of 4, a humans dwarf and a gnome. we made the journey to the NE starting zone to get him because he was completely new to wow. we made potions and repaired our gear for the long road ahead of us. man.....the travel itself was an adventure. i love that memory. sometimes just traveling with homies from one town to the text was just amazing itself.
Reasons for watching the whole video: Music nostalgia and CarBot gags of real-game happenings :D
Yeah don't want to miss that jumping uphill.
Absolutely, so much pictures coming up in my mind. classic have so much remembering music
this is some high-quality world of Warcraft ASMR
the footsteps are annoying and i don't think from wow
@@stephenkamenar 34:05 the bald man drowning
@@stephenkamenar Yep version without footsteps required
@@lelouch1722 I mean, there are ambience videos out there I'm sure.
@@gimbatul9761 There are, but this is a better version than most of those, because it has more sounds added.
This was the most relatable video I've ever watched. Almost as if the memory was ripped straight from my head.
Man this brought back so many memories. New players today just don’t realize the struggle earlier players had. Thanks for the video!
No idea how I watched the whole thing. Should have definitely added a random guild invite somewhere along the way though
Lol yes we should have. That's a great idea
And a whisper for buying gold
I kinda wondered if it would show her walking into the goldshire inn, walking out with a disturbed look on her face and hearthing herself back to shadowglen lol
Is it that dire on retail? Havent played in ages. I just watch the videos mostly for nostalgia.

Me after 3 minutes
"Isn't this taking a bit long"

"oh..."
same
I'm very sure this would be the average amount of time to run from Teldrassil to Elywnn. I made the trip many times back in Vanilla, it was definitely more than half an hour.
Same
@@gabelous5049 yeah. I just have it behind me and its about 1h and 20 min
I hit the 4 min mark myself before realizing how long this was 🤣🤣🤣.
Me: *starts watching* "This is suprisingly detailed, Is he really going to animate the entire-" *checks video time* "OH. MY. GOD."
Also wow, you even animated the little visual bug at 7:24 where your character flies through the air for less than a second before the flight master's mount spawns.
This is so good, it almost doesn't deserve to exist.
"Me: starts watching "This is suprisingly detailed, Is he really going to animate the entire-" checks video time "OH. MY. GOD."" I have done the same thing ! XD
Could be it believe I watched the whole thing
How did he have money for the flight path, though? I call shenanigans.
@@juhkust Rut'Theran to Auberdine is free.
To this day, the trek to Stormwind is still one of my best memories of WoW.
I love the "Am I there yet?" map check at 8:09. A small but very detailed core memory of anyone who's ever taken a flight path of any length.
That was one of my favorite parts too
I cringe to think of some of the flights that seemed like forever to get to a dungeon.
Especially before timer addons

Back in 2004, I did this, but backwards. Ran my human mage all the way to Teldrassil because THAT is where I wanted to level.
I hope the elves greeted you nicely!
@@chrisvangainz5175 probably not since there was no one to teach him new spells 😂
2004: I ran my 10 NElf Hunter all the way up to Tirisfal because I convinced myself the white bat, Ressan the Needler was the best pet ever. Bone headed baby I was, It was worth it.
...Son of Arugal did not greet me nicely.
I ran a bloodelf to lordaeron, through the plaguelands, afterwards I complained to a cousin about it and he told me about the teleport thingy in silvermoon to lordaeron.
@@Frummellll I did that with my rogue in legion when I first leveled horde
The craziest thing about this video is how well I remember every object and NPC she meets on her way. Now that's what I call a nostalgia trip :_-)
when he passed the satyr I was like "there's no way that took that long to get there".
I straight up told my friend "And there is that lone Dragonmaw orc" like half a second before the aggro noise played.
My first character ever was a night elf, that music brings me so far back.
I also love that this is the actual journey you needed to take to get to elwynn back in the day. If I was a nelf hunter I stopped on the way to get gun training too.
Edit: I watched the whole thing and I'm glad I did. I knew where she was at all times by the tiny landmarks and was curious why she didn't set stone at any inns along the way lol! I lived vicariously through that little elf as I never made that run again after I got the Heirloom Chauffeur, but it was such a treat to see it again.
Edit 2: I'm back again, just having it on in the background. This is my official chill video.
i started playing in wod. wasnt there a boat at rut'theran to sw docks??? i know we have the portal now but thats because the kul tiras boat replaced where i remember it being.
@@jaye-asmr2223 Not until WotLK. In Classic and BC, the boat from Auberdine went to Menethil Harbor and not to Stormwind.
LMAO the guy dismounting to buff fortitude on the ship, so fuckin true
Support class to the bone.
Been there, done that =D
also the buffs were so f.... great before they nerfed them to % versions, asked one mage to buff me in stormwind, and dealt hell lot of damage through that
I AM THAT GUY... they call me "THE MAD BUFFER" (well not while they took away that buff.. what an idiotic idea THAT was). THANK GOD I DONT NEED CANDLES ANYMORE >.>
Buffing dismounts automatically...
R.I.P. buffs
As it turns out, Azeroth evokes the same nostalgia as real-life locales. Like a place we didn't realize we'd miss so much.
I miss Teldrassil ... dearly.
So damn true 😖
@@chefnerd it almost hurts...
It's almost as if humans can get nostalgic about anything from their past. Wow what a novel idea
@@I_am_a_cat_ total anonymity strikes again. meow.
If you made it to the end you are a true WoW veteran and a cool person. I salute you!!!
Every time i played an alliance char i went to level up in the elven zones because of the beautiful green forests and the fantastic music. Even as an Orc player, i always did a full quest run of Ashenvale forest just to hear the beautiful music. I always had a deep respect for the night elves for making such heavenly music and i never supported the Horde's campaign to cut down the forest by not participating in the WSG battleground. Ashenvale was always my second home in WOW. :)
I watched the whole thing. To be honest it made me realize how great the sound is in wow. Also, bravo to the sheer amount of artwork you created for this. Must have been Wrath because you got shielded by the priest without being in group and also the dranei on the ele LOL.
I thought that was a pally shield with wings over the head.
The music of Teldrassil will always be my favorite. MY first character was Nelf Druid and the first time hearing all the music in the zone gave me goosebumps. I remember doing this run so many times, either by myself or with friends.
Me: She made it to Elwynn. Now she'll set the hearthstone for Goldshire.
*Runs past Goldshire*
Me: Oh no....
Let’s be honest… if she had gone into Lion’s Pride, we’d still say “oh no”
@@Zeknif1 so true
The pain is real!
She also forgot to grab flight paths….
@@Zeknif1 depends if it’s moonshire... *shudders*
I love how this game connects so many strangers across the world. We all at some point made the periless run across Wetlands to level in our favourite starter zone, such a simple nostalgic experience shared by so many. I miss you Azeroth.
The wetlands run is peak nostalgia for me 👌
It's too bad that blizzard has killed so many years of nostalgia for me. Knowing what was going on behind the scenes as the new generations of developers came into power I cannot financially support the company anymore. I am happy that I get to keep the memories
I'm torn nowadays... I appreciate that the game is more streamlined and respects your time, but the feeling of accomplishment after you spent months grinding AV to get your first purple was something else and you just can't get that nowadays when everything is so instantly accessible.
I did this only with undead in durotar.
no, WE didnt. real men play horde and nothing but horde.
That you could capture so many subtle nuances of the game with simple side-scrolling animation is incredible!
lmao those obligatory "are we there yet" map checks had me rolling.
I'm more invested in that little Nelf's journey from Teldrassil to Elwynn than I am in literally anything going on in Shadowlands.
Shadow...lands? I'm not familiar with that zone in the burning crusade classic
@@fdsfds7339 I think they mean shadowmoon valley and yea the zone gets kinda bland sometimes but c'mon theres a story about death knights and green lava and guldannnnnn D:
@@spicylemon9339 yeah it's a better story than netherstorm
I recognized the entire path from start to finish, ahhh, the nostalgia.
Yeah, but the graphics in this one are better for some reason... ;P
I sat through the entire 40 minutes for the Elwynn Forest music, and sure enough, it brought a tear to my eye 🥲
I cant wait to watch this ten years from now and cry uncontrollably.
I'll be here, crying with you
I already was at this point - only two minutes in. oO
Way ahead of you, pal ;)
The best part of this whole thing is the animated latency of flying through the air before the hippogryph loads in. Attention to detail.
Thankfully, it's also easier to animate haha
Probably happened in the recording so might as well put it in the animation too.
You know it's amazing, from how much you've played, that you can literally predict the next aggro or sound effect just by the change of music WITHOUT LOOKING.
Omg the spacegoat on the boat was hilarious! Seriously tho the nostalgia just watching this instantly sent me back to when I first journeyed to the eastern kingdoms on my Nelf warrior and also got eaten by a crocolisk! Thank you!
Me: Oh,a new Carbot video
Over 2 minutes pass and the vid is still going
Me: Hold up
Yop
exactly my reaction just now lmao
Instantly followed by "WHAT 40 minutes!?"
Yup
Watching 40 minutes of an animation of a journey I wouldn't take, for the faction I wouldn't play, in a game I quit playing, while telling my boss how valuable my time is.
Gods this is such a satisfying animation. Completely captures that feeling in the good days of auto-running from first spawn to your favorite place. All the little details Carbot got as well. Just a big old smile on me face. Carbot needs to do a Tauren one now.
It's magic hey. I reakon I could watch this in 50 years if I'm still around and still melt...
The first character i ever created was a night elf so Teldrassil was the first zone i played and i loved it so much. It broke my heart when blizz destroyed Teldrassil.
As someone who has almost exclusively made night elf druids to play, this is one of the most relaxing 40 minutes ever lol
I fell asleep after 25 minutes, then immediately jolted awake cuz I knew I had to see the ending.
Druid Love.
haha you mean because your not the one getting murdered this time ?
and as a fellow night elf i can relate
I'm convinced that the reason classic wow is so nostalgic was that the music is some of the best I've heard in any game. I get nostalgic just hearing it, and also wow being the first mmo many people ever played
I'd say that FFXIV has a better soundtrack in my opinion.
But yeah, WoW was/is probably the first real mmorpg for many players due to it being really the first mainstream mmorpg.
@@MrQwertysystem nah, ff14 music is good, but the music in wow has this blend of ambiance and nostalgia that is just too good. Just an opinion though, to each their own
@@RenonTTV One part of the WoW soundtrack was also from Gothic 3.
Hence i remember they bought a part of it.
Look for old mu online music. Soundtracks like devias, noria, atlas and icarus....
.....thank me later. 😏
@@MrQwertysystem final fantasy Zzzz
Amazing and 100% accurate. This was like a medieval trip to Rome. lol
When I saw how long the video was I thought this was gonna be a compilation of multiple cartoons. Then it just kept going, and going, and going lol. Absolutely spot on, and so many moments that only real wow player would know.
DINGING LEVEL 2 WHEN THEY DISCOVERED THE GREEN BELT OMFG, PERFECT VIDEO IS PERFECT
This feels like Carbot's official letter of challenge to the timestamp reference guys.

00:02-39:14 Bunch of travel and a quest
39:15 Teldrassil
Did I miss anything?

@@zippo718 thank you!!!!!
This video will be good white noise for me to go to sleep to
There's already timestamps in the description so, super easy challenge, hardly even an inconvenience
Ironically with my first character a human mage, I went to Auberdine with the boat at 15 I guess, knowing warcraft 3 I wanted to see the Nelfs so bad for the first time and I level up to 30 till Ashenvale, the ambient, the forest and the music were amazing, a truly great experience.
Best decision in my WOW life.
As an old night elf player(first and only character) that leveled before cataclysm, the NE leveling experience up to astranaar will be with me till I die. I completely understand you!
although I dont play anymore BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! AGREED!
I saw the end coming a million miles away, but hell yeah I wasn't disappointed. Still remember making this trek in Vanilla in order to learn 2-handed swords as a Nelf hunter. Felt like it took all afternoon, but what an epic journey.
every (Alliance) player has been on this trip at least once. And everyone knows that crocodile.
I remember there were days i would just stand there on a higher level character and just kill it as low level night elves would try and pass by and they would all cheer me lol.
So glad mage was my first class.
@@danielstarr8957 I may not play Alliance but I do know how annoying mobs following you are, you are a god among men.
I was waiting for the spider- and not disappointed xD
Now, why should i?
Science: You can't be bored and entertained at the same time.
Carbot: Yeah, about that....
No truer statement
That's just wow in general
Nostalgic but boring maybe :)
Carbot: " hold my mana potion"
As a night elf player, I think the most satisfying part of the video was seeing the crocolisks and then knowing, ok now next is the spider.
That one Leech Stalker who just can't leave the road alone!
As someone who made this same run in vanilla, I felt the end of the video in my heart. Great work!
For a nearly 40 minute video of mostly just a walk cycle, this was a surprisingly relaxing video that I decided to watch all the way through
Lol, it's not so relaxing when you're playing it ;)
Background game music helps a lot, with extra sounds to break things up. Works that way for me as well.
The music brought back nice memories of when the game didn't suck and there was so much potential for it.
@@akashic7348 I know your comment is a year old, but TH-cam decided to remind me of this comment today for some reason. So, in regard to that as someone who has played World of Warcraft in the past, would you say that it is worth at all for a new player to get into? Because I am interested and looking for opinions
@@bobbyferg9173 I’m tempted to say no but obviously the fact that there are still people playing this game shows that a lot of people disagree. I’ve never accomplished the goal of leveling every class to max but I’ve gotten close and I can tell you that nowadays all classes feel pretty similar, they’ve dumbed them down a lot over the years. Also one of my fondest memories from vanilla is using the tailoring profession to craft myself a pretty good epic robe, but these days gear from professions is nearly useless and professions themselves kind of suck.
However in the upcoming expansion it appears as if they want to address these issues by bringing back talent trees for classes and making professions better. Only time will tell if they’ll succeed in making the game feel more like it did back then. I would recommend that you wait until at least one month after the new expansion comes out and see what the streamers (not gaming news articles) are saying about it. WoW is a subscription game and you may want to see if it’s worth your money. Because for example if you’re looking mainly for an open world RPG with quests to complete you could be better off with a single player offline game like The Witcher 3.
This sent me down such a nostalgia trip… I’m surprised that the actual images all those places came to mind.
What made me tear up though, was the realization that magic, awe and exploration used to be real at some point in life, how I wish I would’ve cherished those moments more.
This was the best thing in a while. Thank you.
Couldn’t agree more.
Couldn’t agree more.
I love this, It reminds me when I started playing. My brother was a human and I created a nelf, so he told me to go to elwynn so he could help me. I ended up going to azshara thinking that there might be a ship there to go to the other continent. Obviusly it didn't go well, I died like a hundred times to skull lvls.. but those are the good old days memories that we all love :3
I wanted to level my Gnome in Teldrassil because my gf got a nelf. Being a noob I didn't know shit about the ships, but there was the moonlight event, so I could teleport to moonglade and walk down felwood, I know that feeling :D
I knew how it would end, it didn't make it any less painful.
Those early days of WoW really were something.
Holy shit I didn't look at the length of the video, I just clicked without hesitation when I saw carbot had uploaded
Edit: Also, that ending.
Same here. I am now doomed to watch it all!
Lol same
Same haha ! xD
Yeah... I just looked. 'Oh, no, he did the whole thing in almost real-time. Absolute madlad.'
I saw 3 minutes. Boy i was surprised when it was 39 minutes :D
You really drew all the way from elvish lands to humans.
Why, oh, gosh, why? It's craziness.
And awesome. Totaly awesome. Thanks.
I just love that everyone is wearling little onesies.
this video was wildly nostalgic and also so relaxing, love reading the comments and realizing that we all share such similar and intense memories
watched it all for nostalgia of the wetlands run.
Still remember getting all the way to Elwynn and doing some Quests and hearthing to hand in... and was back at god damned Telldrasill.
Scarred me for life
😂😂😂😂😂😂at least they toned down the amount of actual times the mobs would rape you along the way. This journey could have been much longer
Same
And you’ll never get back. It’s burned.
@@brucehan8460 *fumes over that joke of a female high elf gone psycho* Liked her at 1 point, but when she did that - instant hate. My 1st ever toon was night elf.
I never thought I'd ask for WoW ASMR, but here we are.
Its weird how just the music and sounds of each zone made me smile
Nodded off several times
I was thinking that, and how GOOD the male nelf quest npcs sound. God damn.
Can’t believe you made this. The nostalgia is almost too much for me
I feel ya. Wanting to laugh and cry in the same video for many reasons.
The world we grew up in ❤️
I cant believe i sat and watched that whole thing. It was amazing.
7:23 i love how he included the fact that WoW still has the bug where the flight master mount appears after a second of you "swimming" through air
Only mistake it’s the money sound upon taking fly, as flying from Ruth’eran to auberdine costs no money, if we want to be very VERY accurate
Woah! This is like a movie of all things that made our childhood great. Brb, let me grab a popcorn, some drinks and a comfy pillow so I can enjoy this trip properly.
I remember legit doing this in wow…I felt like an explorer wandering a new world discovering exciting things
This is real !
Childhood? *feels old*
I'm 5 minutes in and this is delightfully accurate and rather soothing.
Every time in vanilla when i was bored, i searched for a little elves who need help and we walked the whole way, but i made the long run, and checked all the flying points with them. 😊 It was such a nice time in my live.
I would have told you to 🤬 off
The sounds in this make me so nostalgic lol.
I wish the game and the company itself were in a better place. I've always wanted them to do well. We shall see how it turns out.
Also, that ending echoes in my soul.
I was thinking "he's almost there" when you got to darkshore and then I realized "wait, this is WoW Classic, oh man this is gonna be long". Loved every step of it.
Well it's Burning Crusade (see the draeneï on the ship) but yeah same
@@Pynot TBC because of Draenei and the highelf in Auberdine, but not Wrath; otherwise the trip to Menethil and long walk to IF would have been omitted. with the harbour in SW the Darkshore-SW voyage became a very short one :)
Yeah I meant BC but you get what I was going for. I was thinking Darkshore to SW Harbor and realized it was pre-Wrath.
Back in 2005 on release day (yes, 2005, I'm from Europe) my first char was a human, and I wanted to join a friend who was a night elf. I went for the run, but the thing is, I didn't know there were two ships in Menethil, so I took the one I saw - to Theramore. Dustwallow Marsh and the Barrens and the whole Ashenvale really added to the experience :-)
I'm triggered.
i did something similar, running the same was as in this video, but at that time i had never been to ironforge, so i ddint know about the Tram...so i ran trough all zones between menethil and elwynn
You kinda had to do the same with the Warlock's Succubus quest back in the day, requiring you to get an item in Ashenvale. Traveling through the Horde's Barrens as a crappy lvl.20 caster was terrifying, I had to take for the hills and do a roundabout trip not to get ganked and then camped.
It has been now fifteen years... since I did the same to go questing in Ashenvale... and only after reading your comment have I noticed I could've taken the other boat...
On my first character I tried to run from Elwynn to Ironforge... and I didn't know about the Deeprun Tram. So I ran Elwynn - Redridge - Burning Steppes... never did make it to Searing Gorge, as I'd rezzed right next to the Horde FP and got locked into a rez-aggro-death loop.
This reminds me of my times running up to Scarlet Monastery as an Alliance. It was a task many couldn’t be bothered to take on. I had that run down to a science, but the thrill of sneaking RIGHT passed the front gates of Undercity just KNOWING a ganking was around every corner… Sometimes meeting cool horde along the way. But the final push to get into the Monastery was no joke, with horde often camping the entrances/exits.
These are the moments the I’ve never been able to recapture with any game since! Vanilla WoW was special for so many folks like me
This hit me so hard it hurts. The music, the small touches. That damn run. I've never been homesick in my life, but this made me fysically hurt from homesickness. Thanks for this, I love it.
I was totally expecting to see someone playing that damn flute for the rat-catching quest in the Deeprun Tram lol.
I don't think anything in recent years has made me want to go back and play more then this video of a person running for 40 minutes, which maybe says a lot about both the game, and me.
Dooont do it
this video (of something I've done half a dozen times, at that) is more entertaining than the actual retail game^^
Same
Same for me. I haven't played in a decade or more but this brought back so many memories. I made this exact run with a nelf of mine back in the day. The memories of the cesspool that was Goldshire on my RP server. Good times. Alas I'm too old and jaded to do the whole MMORGP thing again.
to this day, one of the best pieces of wow fan content ever made.
Its just a 2D elf running for hours.Nobody does that in game. This is a tutorial on how to waste your time playing WoW classic
@@aarengraves9962 my friend, i played back in retail vanilla, and this video is incredibly accurate and a fantastic piece of nostalgia for a time when i had more time than sense, and wow was magical.
it may not be to you, but i thought i'd provide you some context why i love this video.
you realize that literally NOBODY does that at lvl 1 right? You must be mad to do this run at level 1. Level 5 or 10 is common, but level 1?.... nahh doesn't make any sense@@kkplx
@@aarengraves9962 You're wrong, many people do. I have done it, and have seen dozens on the road in wetlands doing it. In fact, it was a weekly occurrence back in the day to have someone in guild chat talking about how they rolled up a NE and are doing the run. People also did it after getting to the 5-10 range, but nonetheless, it happens at level 1 as well.
Ahh, the Menethil Run. I remember this from back in my starter days, when Burning Crusade was the latest expansion. I remember hating the mountain pass that housed a gauntlet of Dragonmaw orcs to the point that after being killed for the sixth time I lost patience with it, turned back around and headed to Menethil... And then proceeded to swim, that's right, SWIM, half the length of the Eastern Kingdoms to reach Westfall. Took me just over an hour if I remember rightly, but damn was it satisfying to finally see the vibrant greenery of Elwynn.
I'm pretty sure I made it through both versions. Sadly, the swim wouldn't have made an interesting video. :p
thats some next level shit :D
You can also swim out along the coast of wetlands, die to morlocks over there and appear in the gy near if and res sickness, but lvl 1 res sickness is just durability loss to 0 armor gear lol
So, I guess you discovered Newman's Landing on the way? I came across it and was all like "Ohhhh, secret place!!!"
Swimming... I remember swimming around the coast of Quel' Thalas after BC was released (but I hadn't bought it yet) to see how it would appear - quite useless though, of course.
And also I remember swimming (as an Orc) the coast of Stormwind to complete that achievement of fishing in both Orgrimmar and Stormwind.
I still remember making that journey when I was 11 years old with a group of 5 people who were between lvl 5 and 13, on my first character ever. Except our guide didn't know you could go from Auberdine to Menethil Harbor. So he made us walk all the way to the Barrens (going through the border with Orc guards who would one shot us), and then to Theramore, to get to Menethil Harbor and continue on with the journey. It took us at least two hours to get to our destination because of all the deaths and the *huge* detour we took, but to this day it's still one of my best memories ever in a video game.
I have a similar memory teaming up with some friends and heading off to find the Scarlet Monastery for the first time. Good times.
@@akashic7348 Yeah, going to dungeons was such a big adventure back then. Going to Shadowfang Keep and Wailing Caverns was a pretty big journey too at the time as a low level Alliance player.
How she's running is adorable to me
all carbot characters are adorable
That stoic face impression, even after 30 min straight running.....^^
OMG DID YOU JUST ASSUMED THEY GENDER?
I watched it all. I felt it all. I am glad to see others enjoyed it as much as myself. Thank you for your content.
I was screaming inside during the whole thing "The flying points!", "Hearthstone in IF, SW or Goldshire!!", as soon as I saw the human using the HS I knew what was coming lol
Yup.
Been there, done that mistake. (Except my case I hopped to Orgrimmar when I was trying to go to Shattrath.)
I literally said out loud when she got to Menethil Harbor, "Get the flight point before you...oh, you're not gonna do that? Oooookay then."
I was expecting the character to get a class quest that sends them back to Night Elf land. Like the Druid shapeshift quest or the Hunter taming quest. The hunter one, man, where you HAVE to do it in your starting zone even though the class can be the race of the zone you're levelling in, but nope, you're not allowed to do their race variant of the quest!
You may notice the map has already been explored.. this is not the first time the hearthstone was used
@@caffi1 It seemed like it was missing some parts that should have been explored, and including parts that wouldn't have been explored (parts of Dun Morogh)so he may have been using maps from other characters.
I love the little detail of the npc sounds, it's accurate because is like playing "I spy" in a long travel to avoid feeling bored, clicking all the npcs I met.
Literally knew what will happen every second, and still watched whole video. Some things just never get old.
Amazing video, my first vanilla character was a night elf priest. same hair color. I ran like this all the way to Azshara having no clue where I was going, just seeing the world. I remember in Azshara a horde Tauren player was there. He freaking escorted my lost noob self all the way back to the town Astranaar in Ashenvale! It was a pvp server. One of my first lasting memories of WoW.
