That most likely depends on how you want to play the game.
If you enjoy the story, leveling/grinding and a bit slower gameplay, classic may be right.
If you enjoy competetive PvE or PvP, retail is the better choice.
There is also SoD and Hardcore, some people enjoy that alot too..

In Classic there is not that much endgame content, you have the gameplay in the leveling and gearing progress, after that there not too much left.
In Retail you kinda speedlevel through everything, get average gear fast and then head into endgame.

classic era = DEAD
season of discovery = DEAD
classic cataclysm = DEAD(has players, but the content in the game is coming out too late)

play retail WoW for both pvp and pve, other wows are small and incredibly boring/dead

classic cata has 120k players
classic era has 20k players
classic sod has like 84k players
meanwhile retail is at like what, 200-500k players?

if you think these numbers are fake, you clearly don't play wow :thumbsup: WoW as a whole is bleeding like no other & can't keep players around hence why there is 5 different versions of 1 game mode (era, classic refresh, classic cata, SoD)

@OP, play classic fresh (Nov 21st?) or retail if you want a thriving game, the other games are completely dead

I play WoW and being that you have in the past multiple times asked me to do services for you on it that sort of defeats the comment...

Classic era = dead, 20K players = dead? That's 20,000 people...

Cata classic again, 120,000 people... that's dead? Ok mate lol. Not sure why so many people are finding SOD so great, but then again I haven't really played that too much beyond requests for stuff, and although you're right retail is popping off, didn't say anything bad about retail so i'm not sure what you're trying to pick at...

If nything read correctly, "retail is doing fine" I mentioned, the same as the others because simply put, they are. If there was a minimal amount of people on said versions of the game say like how RIFT turned out in the end i'd understand calling it "dead content" but it's far from it on any scale of the game..


Edit - This is also coming from someone who raids mythic content as a MT paladin in retail, and also MT/OT in cata with firelands
