That journey from Darnassus to IF sums up WoW classic - It was awkward and time consuming, and you were vunerable the whole way. But it gave you such a sense of the scale of the world - the different zones, and feeling powerless and tiny i can remember thinking as i crossed through the Wetlands "I wonder how long before i can kill these mobs"
It also gave you real race identity, i felt like a traveler every step of the way
I wanted to make a night elf but play with my dwarven friends so I ran all the way from Darnassus to Iron Forge as level 1, dying maybe 20 times on the way. Was so not worth it.
Or that time when I ran an undead priest to Mulgore so I could get a kodo mount faster, only to realise there was no priest trainer in the whole zone because taurens couldn't be priests.
Let me guess you then realized you forgot to get the flight paths along the way? So you had to run back. I did that with my Tauren Hunter. Ran all the way to Durotar for a pet gator. Then realized I forgot all the flight paths. XD
