The End of Classic | Barny Beekeeper Adventures | World of Warcraft Classic 

edit: had to make a weird youtube edit at 10:12 because of a false copyright claim. sorry for the jarring cut. i'm uploading the uncut to patreon now. support my eternal struggle to upload more than one video a year: barny64.com thank you for everything, truly.

The goat 🐐 coming back for the yearly dunk

I can finally stop talking to my therapist about this.

you know it's gonna be a good content season when barny finally comes back and the footage is 3 years old

The beauty of this series is that I can play WoW vicariously and still maintain a semi-normal existence. Thank you Barny for sacrificing your sanity for us

The line “This time it wasn’t video if , it was VIDEO WHEN” is so on fire

the "standing and hitting" joke to hit that emotional climax is peak cinema fucking kino

"if you haven't played through a world of warcraft prepatch in your time as a gamer, you've probably been spending you time wisely" killed me haha

That ending, almost brought me to tears. You’re not just a WoW storyteller, you’re THE storyteller! I missed vanilla and missed classic as well, but your videos make me feel like I was there, stunning work of art, and I thank you!

It’s crazy to think Barny went into classic like any other nerd with no expectations and came out of it the greatest scarab lord and story teller of all time

The video hasn't premiered yet but im ready for it to be 3 hours long, tackle cosmic questions of good and evil, move me to tears, and then be reuploaded to react channels 🥵🥵🥵

Truly art of story telling. Probably many of us do not play this game anymore, but we are here for your talent.

Haven't played WoW since I was 16-17. Which was 17 years ago now... But I cherish these videos for how well done they are and the amount of poaitive nostalgia feelings they bring bubbling to the surface. Thank you!

Watch it be a actual April fools day joke tho

Just like Jesus, Barny rises from the dead on Easter Sunday

Hi barny. Sorry for the bothering. Im really glad that you made this video. I had a rough day. My friend died from cancer.....but your vids. I rewatched the scarablord again and watched this new one. It broght me laughter and tears. Thank you so much for making my day bright. Im forever grateful. I wish you the best. Your content and knowing that i can enjoy your content is my luck charm.

congratulations on your magnum opus, your storytelling and antics have been thrilling over the last few years and it’s insane to me that I can’t fathom how deep some of these moments really run… it’s like you took every perfect memory and event in that timeframe and crafted it into a coherent story that entertained the masses. well done!

Nymeria is such a gem

If this is an April fool's joke im gonna be sad because I've been looking forward to this so much

So, funny thing. I am Apocalypse the human warlock from , our raid on the horde cities was occurring at the same time, (but we had 160 people, so we actually killed all the horde leaders; rekt) and we saw Barny's raid. We where also the ones who informed the Dwarven Overlords you guys where coming. Maybe there where spies in your raid, but I'm pretty sure it was Chatoo who told the Dwarven Overlords GM about it.

Thank you for your stories. Thank you for bringing to light the emotions I don't strive to fully comprehend myself. Classic, for all it was was one of the best things to happen to me in my life, and your work illustrates it perfectly. Thank you for always being you Barny. Thank you for bringing everything I feel to life.

thank you for the shadow cow in oom oom meadows, it made my day

Barny, this series has become something you should be incredibly proud of. Honestly, It's been my favorite thing in the past few years to watch on RU-vid. Well done. I know I speak for all of us when I say, for A Tale of Two Glaives, video when?

Great video and thank you for putting a music list of all the music you used in the description, some serious bangers in that list!

Tanks Barny for Bee'ing here. looking forward to your next adventure!

This was really well done dude, didn't even realize it was an hour. Looking forward to A Tale of Two Glaives in two years time!

Thank you so much Barny. I love your videos and this one is no exception. I dont buy merch but i snagged a lucky charm just to commemorate this series. I will never forget your adventures, just as i will carry all my own classic adventures in my heart. GG

The ending choked me up, I connect so much with your values and method of storytelling. Thank you for sharing it with us!

listen barny, maddy, the ending of this proved fundamentally it isn't even about the WoW content.. it is about your storytelling and connection to the game... as a writer and cinephile, your narratives are exquisite and your editing and storytelling is equal in excellence. Never stop creating Maddy, you are phenomenal in what you do... .. . and I'm an American Anglophobe. OH THAT ENDING

"Not video IF, Video WHEN" Gave me chills of happiness. Big ❤ Barney!

Glad you finally finished this story of WoW Classic. Was a privilege playing with ya and the rest of Final Boss/Murmur before my eventual retirement of the game. The footage here and the events from the times of WoW Classic brought back memories of the fun times we had as a guild. Anyway have a good one. -Dethklok The Warlock

Hey, Murmur is an OG name for the guild. RIP PrimalWoW 3.3.5 Vanilla raiding. Was fun.

the addition of find your flame at the end was fucking spectacular, what an incredible build up to a perfect flourish.

I am seriously considering your work as an excellent example of how the modern art can evolve. This is the only, mind me, the ONLY RU-vid video that made me experience the "soul-sftening" that you go through after consuming a piece of great art. The feeling that you get after finishing a great movie or a book? The one where you suddenly view the world in a much more sentimental way and go through emotions that you are blocking normally? That what I get after watching your work. Keep at it, Barny.

your series have been incredible. thank you for putting this together.

Thanks for bringing us all on your journey through classic! I can't wait to see the crazy hijinks you get up to through TBC and beyond! Keep being awesome!

The hearthstone card made me cry so hard. Congratulations! ❤

Another amazing Barny Beekeeper video to add to the "re-watch every few months" club. Thanks Maddie.

such quality in the editing XD amazing, plus the intro is amazing :D

This was a perfect piece of Art. Thank you for creating this. It was insanely good

THIS BETTER NOT BE AN APRIL FOOLS JOKE CUS IM ACTUALLY SO EXCITED RN

Congrats on becoming a top tier story teller. You knew you could do it and you did.

"World of Warcraft is best experienced vicariously through anyone else" 💯 🎯

Just amazing! Your videos are perfection takes to back to the classic days on grob, missed those days

Maddie never fell off, she was just lurking in the shadows waiting for her moment to combo us. You seriously rule!

What a lovely love letter to the end of classic wow all the memories of classic and start of tbc came flooding back. Great video 🥲

I love the inconspicuous Hyacinth Macaw in the background of the farmer's market bit :))

I love the use of Find your Flame at the end. Great video :)

That final clip of you foo fooing your own ability to tell stories years before becoming the greatest video game story teller to date is actual gold. Outstanding video as always ❤

Tbh Barny you are like platonic ideal of comedy for me and I'm thankful for any video

Amazing video, amazing story. Thank you!

Incredible stuff barny. Keep up the fantastic work

Not gonna lie, the Pokémon Colosseum music caught me off guard and sent me back a fucking MILLENIA! What a bop. Well done.

I don't think I've ever seen compression artifact scene transitions done this well, well done!

Another amazing video, I'm going to re-watch the whole series brb

How poetic that a legendary video titled "The End of Classic" would release not far from "Cataclysm Classic" arguably the end of Classic.

Ending with Your flame brought a tear to my eye. Not only do i replay that specific section of the song A LOT, but I also replay your videos A LOT. Love you Maddie, thanks for being you.

Ever since I've stumbled upon your's and UberDanger's WoW videos, I always liked to come back to them and watch them over every once in a while. This was a great watch as well!

I find it funny that Frywood has gone from being a rat griefer in the nests of Silithus, to now being in the same guild as Barny killing world bosses together

I'm so glad it's not an April Fool's joke, but an actual video with insight on how the series came to life and what's next. Thank you Barny for making this, you rock

Thank you for creating nostalgia for memories i don't even have :)

Ah 3:02 The sweet moment where Narcissism goes from being a concern, to a diagnosis.

I am so glad we were able to go on this journey with you. Watching your skills and talents grow over the years has been a great experience. Keep doing you and keep telling your story, we will all be here to hear it

Well worth the fucking wait. After what must have been over a dozen rewatches of each classic video of hers. The quality hasn't dipped one bit. I got fucking chills towards the end. A master storyteller indeed.

bought 1 of each from the site, cant wait for it all to come in!

This made my week. So happy to see a video from you.

Man my WOTLK guild just broke up, we were together the entire expansion. Seeing the end of this video hits home, the end of an era. Holy shit 10/10 video

maddie, what an amazing video. we all have been waiting for this for a long time, and i can see it was totally worth it. i remember watching the streams of you editing this video long time ago, and i can exactly remember the crazy effort that went into making the shots of the intro, all the time and love you put in a minute long was enough to know how much of a banger this would be even if it took years. and now seeing the final product with all the new scenes, i can only imagine how long this took you. but we can all see the effort and talent you have. goshhh, the way you narrate, the way you tell the story... it's insane. you're the best entertainer, i'm so happy to see you achieving your dream. you make me see the fun in world of warcraft. your classic wow videos along with scarab lord went down as the best world of warcraft movie ever made, i'm sad the classic journey is over but i'm glad we still have so much content for the future. see you in 2027 and what is more iconic than dropping it on april fools day, you're a queen, a LEGEND thank you. thank you for the happiness and fun and all your fantastic work, we appreciate it a lot ❤

Worth the wait, thank you and see you this year as promised! :D

Holy crap, EVERY. SINGLE. VIDEO is a MASTERPIECE. All of your videos hit on such an emotional level. They’re clever, funny, creative, inspiring, everything. Never stop. You are a genius

Was super awesome to game with you. From that first weird encounter in RFK to seeing that first glaive drop go to you. Grobb was a wild ride. - Carnage

Featured in Hearthstone?! Thats heckin' SWEET BARNEY, CONGRATS! Much deserved.

Enjoyed the whole series so far. Keep going!

Alright. I'll say it. I miss classic. It wasn't like living through vanilla. It was its own experience altogether. It's impossible to bottle this feeling, and to just bring it out again when you need it. Even worse is that you never realize you're in these "good old days" until they're gone. The slow pace of these videos has kept me mentally coming back to classic (real classic, not SoD, SoM, BC, Wrath, etc.). Good parts and bad. Pretty thankful for that.

ITS HAPPENING!

Absolute masterpiece as always. Easily my favorite content creator across ALL games. IF I ever have kids, I will show them your journey. LMAO

57:53 Best intro of Bronjahm I've ever seen.

im lost for words here, truly! The video is magical! It makes me reflect on my time spent in Classic. and my time spent on wow in general. and ofc its a Barny video that makes me do that! And i will keep watching your vids no matter what content it brings! Keep it up Beekeeper!

AND SHE STICKS THE LANDING!!!! Bravo. Absolutely wonderful. Suffice to say, your classic videos gripped me by the lucky charm and didn't let go, and I'm so glad we got a Final Boss of a video to tie it all up. Here's to another triumph from the trans titan herself! Oorah!

Yearly Barney video. Check. Can't wait until MoP classic when we get the tale of two glaives! But really this is absolutely fucking fantastic content!

​God damn it @Barny64, just when I forget you come back and hook me back in! Like always, the video was awesome. Can't wait for the warglaive episode.

'How do you even heal?' "HUH?!" fucking gold. Classic Barny. I love it.

1000% April fools joke and it drops on the second

Earthbound music in the last 10 minutes just sent me over the edge of Nostalgia. Loved this

Love this. Thank you, Barny!

So spooky, I actually rewatched all of this literally yesterday cause I felt like a good laugh. If this is an April fools I’m going to be so upset.

POGGERS

Barny, you are just too much of a gift. Thank you!

This video made me want to resub even though I know I'll never experience the magic that was vanilla grob ever again. The stars aligned for our server. I'm just happy I was a part of it.

Whether in jest or in truth, our mistress has returned! Our lucky charm's held true!

I know it doesn’t mean much or anything at all but to able to be part of this video makes me so happy. Sure all I said was “for the horde” but still feels good to be included in my favorite RU-vid series

I cannot put into words how good this is, for me specifically. The whole video was great and fun and at the end I saw myself in you. I Love(d) Stories and for a few years now, being an adult, having to do adult things, the spark dulled but my god, did this wake me up. I need to create again, tell stories again. There was a reason I loved doing it and I need to find it again.

That end of classic bit was beautiful, you hit me right in the feels with the M64 music and LoTR quote :')

Bless the Barney and their charms. Bless the camping and rogueing of them. May her videos cleanse the world. May they keep the world (of warcraft) for their people.

i've known you since your league of legends days, since i was just a mere fifteen year old nobody. i'm still a nobody, but i'm glad that you're still here after all the trials and tribulations that this world puts into us. i'm tearing up while i'm typing this; you were my favorite youtuber, and still, to this day, you still are. you're not just a youtuber: you're a loremaster !!!!!! thank you, so much.

ran my first aq40 today on Turtle WoW and it reminded me of your series! made the raid more intriguing

The random yellow orc in a white shirt is right though. We will be there, to listen to your stories, no matter how grand or small.

UBER DANGER COME BACK WE NEED MORE CONTENT TOO

time for my brain to be occupied rent free for 18 hours before and after the drop

Thank you so much Barny! I love the advenutres of Barny Beekeeper! I wachted the other episodes many times always hopping for a new one and now I have hope for many more to come. Even if it´s only one a year and we will be done with Warth in like 2030 LOL
