I started a classic WoW character for a nostalgia trip and to chat with my bro during the winter months and actually just got to max level (Warrior + Priest). I forgot how good WoW battleground PVP is, it's a blast even though we're way behind in gear. Battlegrounds are more about reading the situation and coming up with on-the-fly strategies, plus there's a unique joy to killing someone in top gear while using trash gear and there's built-in forgiveness if you lose. It's a shame no game has ever come close to replicating the WoW pvp experience, it's such a long slog to get to the promised land.
I've always secretly wished I spent a couple years as a complete WoW degenerate, I've never allowed myself to, but it looks like a great time.
