boostedh_19: "I think I just miss being a kid" is pretty spot on. Nostalgia is a hell of drug
Solaxer: Playing World of Warcraft at a young age permanently alters your brain chemistry. No matter how much time passes or how many bottles of breast milk go missing from the Blizzard company fridge, I will always come back to play, eventually.
blu_s0l_0nline: Oh my god, he's actually going to do it. He's actually going to upload videos this year! Let's goooooo!!!
StraifuLove: holy shit i haven't seen fronk video since 8.3
this year is starting crazy
Slumplordx: You know this game is a huge part of your life when you're tearing up to this.
real_mickeythug: WAKE UP NEW FRONK VIDEO
MrTehBlured: Cant believe this video actually made me tear up a bit. Beautiful ending to a beautiful video.
Racetrack04: Absolutely nailed the vibes I feel towards this too! Encompassed it flawlessly - I imagine heaps of us would give a lot just to feel that initial surge of wonder again that we had when we first began playing
EternalAngel333: Gonna be a honest. World of warcraft is ALWAYS gonna be a love hate relationship no matter what expansion is released or how the balance and game state is.
TinyTimTations: Bleeding players till the server goes offline made me tear up.
All the people I have meet because of this game, All the people who have passed on, All the memory's at lan cafes back in the 2000s
philippherges8761: i barely if ever write a comment on youtube,twitch or whatever...but this very heartfelt and speaks out of my soul :) i come back like 3 times a year to rewatch the fronk videos and to see a new one with a different kind of vibe makes me very happy! keep making videos once in a while, bc you have the amazing talent of mirroring what most of us feel and putting it into this crazy good videos. Big love, dont ever stop making videos like at least one every few years haha!
golanso5858: Oh fuck i'm crying. Thanks for this video.
AllThingsNerdChannel: Thank you for the video, brought back a lot of nostalgic vibes being a kid again. Much love
Giralian: This.. This is the video I myself have wanted to make for a long time now. A look back, a retelling of ones own story.
Being also just a small kid, in our little country of Denmark, when I first got the game for christmas, it was nothing like i had ever played before.
Many years have passed since then, and I feel the same as you. The rush to max level and max gear every patch. This isn't the same game anymore.
But somehow, someway, I always find myself coming back. Because damn I love this game. No matter what happens.
Thank you for the amazing video Fronk. Good to see you back.
raine_dead: the clip of T1 leaping into the water is 100% that "wow magic". For those of us who have played that magic may have dimmed, but now we get to pass it onto others. The magic becomes less about our enjoyment and more about how we can share the wonder that this game has provided us, with those who have never experienced it. Great video! ggs
Meeix: crying because of a fronk video was not on my 2025 bingo card..
Nightstalker314: Keep in mind that over time "exploring the game" became faster and faster through information online but not just that: It also became more streamlined through these created/manufactured expectations of standards. Another factor that played into this is probably flying increasing travel speeds which then forced the increase in combat speed which then forced the increase in dungeon/raid access. The game has accelerated since TBC. And you can't revert that or people drop out and those that demand it won't all return and aren't what made the hype in the first place.
Most people have just moved on. And the rest has issues accepting it.
Alexational: Certified Fronk banger
mep1455: I will say that PTR has ruined the unkown far more than knowledge has. You know everything before the content has even been released.
GoPlayMLP: Completely different video than I expected but this one hits so damn well. Great work as always, Fronk.
joanamileva8360: I am a 97 kid from Eastern Europe. I was introduced to it at age 14. I didn’t have the money to buy it so I just played in private servers. By the time I started the game was already going passed its prime. I played only wolk. It did something to me. I still go back to it and I recall going in areas and just explore. I couldn’t do it as much outside. In wow I mattered. I remember all the friendships I made and all which went down. The relationship inside and out of the game. When I think about it, nostalgia always creeps in. It is a game which shaped a big part of my childhood and early adulthood for better or worse.
impaler94: This hit me right in the feels. Thanks fronk.
hc6157: I’ve been playing since 2008. My whole family plays, have played together since the start. In the same way that a good guild can get you through the worst WoW patches, I think the game had the converse effect of holding my family together as my sibling and I grew up and moved far away from home. I love this game, I love the person that I am when I talk about this game and play this game with people I love
windandraven: I have played since my son said, "Dad, you played D&D in the 70s; you would love this." It was during late WOTLK. I joined at the launch of the first Cata, and I still play that same hunter (and others along the way) as my main, though I am not on retail as my computer can not run the game. So, I am back in CATA with a new main hunter since Classic BC. I have never stopped, though I do log off. My first big cheevo was Ahead of the Curve, or what it would have been called then, for Drag Soul before the April nerf.
ClassicHardcoreMoments: Good to see you back fronk
crookedlid9653: New fronk content holy shit blessed day
