I purchased World Of Warcraft about two weeks ago and all I can say is WOW (punn intended). My first impression of MMORPGs was from Ever Crack…er Ever Quest. Let’s just say that I didn’t want to be associated with “those people.” After all, they would spend more hours in a day playing a game than working, sleeping, or anything else. With that kind of negative image who would want to play MMORPGs?
About a year ago I purchased Guild Wars while I was traveling. I figured that since I’m away from home, I have time to spare to play/try an MMO. While I liked Guild Wars, I wasn’t really into it. Most likely because I didn’t have any friends on at the same time. A year later I decided to try it again and for about a month I’ve had fun with it. Wasn’t “blow me away” but it was fun. Some of my friends suggested WOW so after contimplating the idea of paying a monthly fee to play a game I decided to try it for a month.
To my surprise, I have been blown away by WOW. It just offers so much content, my friends are on it, and it’s just a lot of fun. I’m now asking myself, “why oh why did you not buy this game before now?” If you haven’t played it, try it.
