 - Say Goodbye To Your Life, ForeverThis is one of the most widely played MMORPG's. I have a 63 undead warlock. The past summer and fall has been spent doing nothing but playing this game. If your life includes socializing, responsibility, employment, children, romantic relationships, friends, pets, or family... then this game is not for you. If you're bored with life and need something time consuming to replace your existance with... then this game may be for you. Highly addictive, incredibly time consuming, 4 and a half stars. Rating:  - Addictive as all get out...I agree 100% with all the previous reviews claiming the game is addictive as can be. I mean this in the best possible way, I just can't get enough of it... its just *that* fun to play. I have been away from gaming for several years, and I can safely say that I have not had this much enjoyment playing a game since the Diablo and Diablo II games (also from Blizzard ... hmm, coincidence?). You will find yourself staying up into the wee hours of the night just saying "one more level" or "if I could only get that one new spell it would make all the difference." Just so much fun and the online aspect just plain works. I can't recommend this one highly enough... just be prepared to be spending many a sleepless night on this one. Great stuff, thank you Blizzard! Rating: - World of Warcraft has Enough stuff to do to ensure almost constant entertainmentWorld of Warcraft (WoW for short) is an excellent game that is well thought out, and well driven for the market. It allows for both solo and team play in a world that is filled with monsters quests dungeons, and team events. Some of the quests are puzzles, others are calls to action against a horde of monsters troubling a village. Perhaps they are a quest to find a buried treasure in a cave full of half snake fiends. Throughout all of this is a world held together beautifully. Just wandering the beautiful Landscape, you will find interesting battle scenes perhaps a sunken ship with bodies lying around it that is never mentioned in a quest. It is just the chance to add realism to the world. Objects that don't have any significance to the players have significance to the world itself. and this kind of thought is throughout all of WoW. With 10 Playable Races and 10 Playable classes it is a wonderful game for anyone who likes a fantasy adventure game. Rating:  - It is a nice game at first but extremely boring after a whileWhen I bought the game last January I was very optimistic, being a great role playing and fantasy fan, I thought the game was a lot of fun at first. The quests I had accepted was trivial and most of the fun was from looking at the Warcraft world while moving in it. But I was confident that the quests would improve and be more interesting. I am now level 26 (I know that is a low level compared to all the people who are level 60 and 70) but I feel that the game has to be fun even at this moderate level. It is not. The quests have not become more interesting. They are always collect X many of this and that, or kill X number of this and that monster. I never feel like I'm accomplishing anything while doing the quests. But what I am really SICK AND TIRED of is the running/walking. The extreme distances that I have to run is ridiculous, and I have to wait until level 40 to be able to buy a horse and that is extremely expensive, from what I have read on the net. What is the logic that a person has to walk/run from one city to the other? There is a minor transport system and it helps a little (only a little), but why people cannot get a horse to be able to get between two places is beyond me. One of my friends has a character that is level 70 and he says to me what I haven't even seen the game yet. All I keep think then is how long and how high level do I have to be to be categorized as having seen the game? I think you should have the feeling that you have seen the game from day one and not after you have spent hundreds of hours and dollars on subscription fees. The bad game play is one thing, but another is the antiquated graphics. This game looks like the 5 year old game it is poor copy of (Warcraft 3). The graphics have not improved one bit over the years after many many gigabytes of updates. I feel that the money I have paid one month after the other is totally wasted because there is no visible update at all. I feel like I'm being charged for leasing a webhotel or something and there are webhotels with sql servers that charge one fourth of the total cost that Blizzard charge. If Blizzard cannot improve the graphics and the extremely boring game play I won't be playing the game anymore, and I will advise people who is considering buying this game that it is extremely old looking and no speech at all in the game. I would think that all those gigabytes being downloaded would include some speech in the game, but no. Rating: - Best GAME!!This game is very addictive. A little slow understanding a new game but once you get going, GREAT GREAT game. I have the Burning Crusade as well, which is the expansion for it.
