Classic vs. Retail: it's the debate that never dies. But this time, we're keeping it civil.Welcome back to Filthy Casuals, the podcast for and about the casuals. The people not chasing world firsts, just logging in, loving the game, and building something every time they do.This week we're bringing both sides to Casuals Court for a WoW debate unlike any other. No flame wars. No "this ruined WoW forever." Just real players sharing why their version of Azeroth means something to them and what they genuinely respect about the other side.We're talking origin stories, what each version gets right, what feels lost, and what WoW still means to us as casuals in 2026.Because at the end of the day? We're all just tourists in Azeroth.🎙️ Hosted by matthew.EAre you a Classic loyalist or a Retail defender? Drop your verdict in the comments!We appreciate all Likes, Subscribes, and comments. All are welcome to hang with as Casuals.
