Press to jump
- 0:40Skyy reviews Blizzard's announcement of record peak concurrent and returning-player numbers for Forever's launch.
- 2:00Five players reach level sixty together after roughly fifty-two hours of open-world area-of-effect farming.
- 9:27Developers want raid mechanics to be readable without requiring third-party addons.
- 13:39Game Masters interact with players directly in Azeroth, including telling jokes.
- 15:04Community requests include cheaper talent resets while leveling and ways to refresh campfire duration.
- 21:20Skyy reassures slower-leveling players that they needn't hurry through the journey.
Reaching the level cap together takes coordination; Skyy also makes room for players who are nowhere near it. The Comeback Kids' most-watched new upload covers five WoW Forever players reaching level sixty simultaneously, then closes by reassuring a viewer that taking their time is perfectly fine.
"WoW Forever Just Made HISTORY & Blizzard Revealed What's Next" has drawn about 195,000 views. Skyy reviews Blizzard's announcement of a record launch, examines developer interviews and explains the goal of raid encounters whose mechanics players can read without third-party addons. Returning Game Masters supply a less technical feature: in-game dad jokes.
The comments bring that sprawling update down to player scale. One newcomer recounts nervously tanking a first dungeon and finding a supportive group. Others discuss enjoying slower leveling, suggest a smoldering visual to warn when a campfire is about to expire, or describe using Spoken to hear quest text aloud. There's as much interest in inhabiting Azeroth as in reaching its finish lines.
Across twelve uploads, the channel kept returning to Forever's evolving rules. The November 11 progression discussion covers slower gear acquisition, class identity and practical leveling help. The newest roundup, covering Booty Bay's weekly gold quest, catch-up mechanics and dungeon experience, currently has the strongest viewing momentum.
The channel added about 770,000 views over the week and gained subscribers, although its current daily viewing is a little below its usual pace. Among nearby RPG and strategy channels, UrbanLoon had a larger week for views and subscriber growth, while spoonkid6 was quieter than usual.
For The Comeback Kids, even the smallest requests have a place beside the launch headlines: cheaper talent resets and a campfire that doesn't leave its owner guessing.

I’ve wanted to play WoW ever since it first came out and finally decided to give it a shot. Ran my first dungeon today as a tank and was honestly a little nervous, but everyone I grouped with was so chill and supportive. Had such a good time and now I’m even more excited to keep playing. Really glad I finally got into WoW!
@fooltube9999See it on YouTubeCampfires should have a smoldering visual when there’s less than 2 minutes on it.
@JorisvanLeeuwenSee it on YouTubeThe fact those 5 kept the resolve to hit level 60 at the same time is really cool. Sure, I have no interest in going that fast - but to each their own. Seeing 5 friends put effort and patience to ensure a shared award at the same time is a huge part of what gaming is about.

tbf, a minor subplot about goblins secretly selling items between the factions via the auction house, could be pretty funny.
@simusarSee it on YouTubeI really, really like the slower leveling. Its challenging and I get to experience areas and content longer than I would have, had I leveled so fast blowing through the content.
@GodsFullArmor777See it on YouTubeSpoken is pretty much my absolute favorite addon I have in forever, I actuality feel like I am learning the lore and it is super immersive, questing has never been so good for me
@danieljohnson2117See it on YouTubeIn the beta, as a new player, I played priest. I DIDN'T KNOW wands were a thing for them. Can you imagine me smiting everything to level 14 (where I stopped to play other classes, to get a feel for what I wanted).
@Deku_KaSee it on YouTubeLet the fire be loaded with simple wood. Like an unlimited amount. The possibilities would be so much fun.
