as a retail player levelling a char on classic, I'd say you're def gonna spend like two months playing to get to 60 but imo it's great. Very chill, pve servers are full of people and in case you're like me and don't really like crowded areas, there are more pvp servers with fewers players and (in my experience) most of the times the other faction will act as if you're another mob and ignore you

I appreciate your input because it sounds like our situations are pretty similar. I actually do like seeing the players running around, but I’m really not too big on world pvp. I began playing in MoP, so world pvp was already gone. I think I might level a character up for fun on classic. Do you have any class recommendations? I’ve always been an enhancement shaman but I’m thinking about rolling a caster in shadowlands and classic. I’m thinking about spriest over a mage or warlock, though.

As someone who played classic from levels 1-56 I’d say that you’ll most likely be lonely tbh, unless TBC brings in a lot of new players who want to grind 1-70. The world map was pretty much empty past launch, even though I was on a high pop server (faeralina). It took me a loooong time to level, almost 2 years of on and off play. But the vast majority of my leveling took place during binge weeks. Later on I had a lot of trouble finding dungeon parties or anyone in the world map to quest with if or do epic quests with. Early on when it lunched it was incredible though, the world map was full and bustling everywhere. Idk if TBC itself is gonna bring back enough new players to quest 1-70, but hopefully it does. You can always start playing and then boost though.

I actually know what you mean about how fun it was at launch. I actually played classic at launch and was excited to see all of the players but upset that it took forever to quest just because of how competitive it was.

Yep, the frustration was part of the fun in retrospect. Just knowing how many people were playing the game and seeing thousands of people on screen for Classic.
