The Only MMORPG Out There Worth Playing!
World Of Warcraft (or WoW for short) is Blizzard Entertainment's
latest stroke of genius. The same people who brought us classics
like Starcraft, Diablo and the Warcraft games have now
spearheaded into the MMORPG World, and what a great job they've
done...
I admit that i have never been an MMORPG fan and never
understood the genre. However, after extreme pressure from
family and friends I gave in and bought WoW. At first I was
skeptical, but soon i found myself addicted and not wanting to
leave the world of Azeroth...
Graphics: 9/10
MMO's aren't known for their good graphics, but i must admit
that WoW looks better than any MMO out there. The visuals are
simple, yet stylish, and the game is easy to look at. There are
many art themes in the game with each civilization having its
own architecture and fashions, making them instantly
recognizable. The character models are low polygon, however the
colors and textures make them look fabulous. No two players are
look alike and the level of customization for your character is
huge. I find this game runs fine with visuals on Highest with a
128 MB video card, 512 MB of RAM and a 1.5 GhZ Processor.
However, if u don't want any lag or choppiness in the capital
cities, you may have to upgrade your RAM.
Sound: 9.5/10
Blizzard has always done sound superbly. I find the sounds in
the game to be very immersive and distinguished. Each animal has
its own unique howls, grunts or hisses, as with all the other in
game Characters. It is easy to see that the developers put a lot
of effort in the sound design. The music in the game is also
very well done and varies from opera to classical to jungle
beats, depending on where you are in the game. However, if you
spend an extensive period of time in an area, the music does
tend to become repetitive.
Gameplay 10/10
WOW. This is where WoW shines. The gameplay in this game is
so... fun. With a guild and some friends, I guarantee you will
never go bored. There are an immense number of quests no matter
what level you are, or what part of Azeroth (the world) you are
in. With dozens of instances (high level areas like "dungeons"
where you go in with a group of people to attempt quests, kill
bosses. or loot rare items) available throughout the game, the
action will always be there. Additionally, there are only three
loading times throughout the whole game. When you enter the
world, when you enter an instance, and when you are travelling
between continents. The loading times usually don't last longer
than 15 seconds. There are many classes in WoW, too many to
discuss. The range from Warrior, Druid, Warlock, Priest,
Paladin, Shaman, Rogue, Mage, and Hunter. Each class is very
diverse and has its own ups and downs, and its also a good idea
to have friends in all the classes. The races available in WoW
are Human, Night Elf, Dwarf and Gnome on the Alliance side and
Orc, Tauren, Troll and Undead on the Horde side. The World
itself is MASSIVE. 2 continents, 5 provinces, 6 capitals, and
40+ areas to explore. Not to mention that blizzard puts new
content into the game about once a month. There are even "Game
Masters", Blizzard employees in game that are standing by if you
are in need of technical assistance, which I have actually used
once.
Final Word
World of Warcraft is a master piece in progress as Blizzard
works diligently each week to fix any bugs or errors in the
game. I must admit, the longer you play WoW, the more you will
appreciate it. The replayablility is infinite, meaning this is
the only game you will need for a LONG time. There are an
immense number of items in the game, not to mention a lot of
helpful people in game willing to help you out. Anyone who wants
to experience a true community online, or just get away from
their daily routine should at least try WoW. World Of
Warcraft... An extraordinary achievement in entertainment.!
