contemplating buying the year sub…is it to late to get into WOW? seems like its a lot to take in knowing its, what? an almost 20 year old game

I would personally not buy a 1 year subscription for a game I’ve never played before.

That said, I don’t think it’s ”too late” to get into it right now. There are new expansions up and running, being Wrath of the lich king in classic servers and Dragonflight in retail.

Without knowing too much about Dragonflight, I’d imagine it’s easier to get a grip of Wotlk.

It's very cool! try it for free or 1 month

Do not buy a 1 year sub. Try the game out first, whether that be the free retail up to level 20, or 1 month sub and try both retail / wotlk classic for a little before you decide if you like the game.

I’d try Wrath classic first, since it does not require buying any games.
If you like that and want to try retail, be prepared for a completely different game however. I would not suggest spending money on an entire year subscription.

The first 3 expansions of the game are the best imo.

There are a couple others that I liked as well but I cannot speak for BFA/Shadowlands/Dragonflight as I did not really play those.

Mists of Pandaria was cool as was Legion.

Warlords of Draenor/Cataclysm are the two worst expansions imo.

Why Cata worst? imo it was pretty good lol. And DF so far is grazy good

Cata was only bad because of the content drought. I swear if cata re-came out now and was like a year long expansion it'd be on the same tier as wotlk/tbc/mop for a lot of people
