Not really, I mean I do like exploring but after months, I either put my flying mount on autorun and alt tab or hop on a flightpath and alt tab.
Even back in classic I didn't really pay attention to the world around me, I followed the super vague instructions from the quest text and only looked for whatever mob, item etc. was mentioned in the text. If I were to play classic now I'd tunnel-vision even more on the quest objective than I did back then so if anything I'd take even less of the world in.
