Respawns are too quick too.
I called this a while ago. Nostalgia is great an all, but it really destroys what the experience was actually like because it becomes warped. A particular example that comes to mind is my brother remembering Final Fantasy VII as a high-quality game (it was when it came out). He finally went back and played it on his PS1 a few weeks back and said, "Shit this isn't what I remember."
TL;DR: "Shit, this isn't what I remember." = Classic, even though it is what it was.
For one most of the people saying "i dont remember this" are private server players comparing a pirated version of a game to the real one lol, of course stuff is going to be different.
Secondly as much as i love vanilla WoW i knew it would be a bad stream game and have been telling people that.
tbf druid is probably one of the worst early-game offenders. AA in rotation is classic in a nutshell.
Nostalgia is a bitch, nothing is ever as you remember it because memories become jaded and old experience often beats new exploration every time without a conscious choice of open-mindedness towards a new experience/establishing new relations. Re-spawns, level-speed etc. were terribly mixed back then, I'm curious how they're going to tune it in this round.

If you knew the candle was fire then the meal was cooked a long time ago.
Even if they have 1.12 data, they are running servers based on BFA-era. Thus, the code that uses this data can be different and this may cause the discrepancies people are complaining about (but many people probably remembers incorrectly anyway).
Because it is? You can literally just zone out of sticky situations and reset mob respawn timers now lol.
People are going to be pissed when they see how much easier it makes the game, especially with addons to abuse it.

I mean people really like old school runescape, so there is at least a segment of the population that really legit likes the old stuff better. There are also people who would just rather have Vanilla than BFA, which is a sentiment I can certainly understand because BFA is shit.
Video capturing technology didn't exist back then? Obviously not being serious here. What you're saying is MOST likely true, but I've had monsters follow me an entire zone. We used to kite raid bosses and elites to org and stormwind. Aggro ranges might be off like they said. I don't know though because I'm just assuming what they said.
So did I and I can prove it in a multitude of ways. I never recorded myself playing the game, but I'm in several videos for PvP and PvE content.And just to be clear: I did play Classic 15 years ago...i never played a private server. And the only thing i remember from regen in classic is that it was basically non-existant after lvl10 unless you wore a lot of spirit.
A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don’t have one, you’ll probably never need one again.
I am enjoying the shattering of rose colored glasses already.
Just don't reply to me. Please. If you can help it.
These comments are the point of beta. If there is an oversight, which there likely are many, devs cross reference to make consistent with the internal copy of 1.12.

Hi there - could you please provide some details on how you came to know this information?

You are right. And thankfully, Blizzard have a fantastic track record of taking player feedback, and acting on issues presented by their testers. Thats why they made sweeping changes to the classes and azurite systems during BfA beta.
Yeah, that's true. I know plenty of people that enjoy Classic more. However, a high majority of people I know remember Classic for what it is rather than what everyone on the internet tries to tell everyone it is. I know they'll enjoy Classic because of just that. The internet, on the other hand, is going to stop playing because "this isn't how it was" even though it's exactly how it was. It's actually fascinating to me to observe.
Think about the content most people are looking at when they watch WoW on Twitch. Leveling is about the most boring content you can watch. Classic leveling is even slower and more monotonous. I don't think its going to be that popular for live streams. I will enjoy playing it, though.
Low-level regen was super high in vanilla. For proof, here is the low-level part the famous Joana 1-60 speedrun videos.
