Scarecrow Man Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I know everyone has bee upset because I am not around as much as I used to be :rolleyes: This is because of World of Warcraft.I am sooo obsessed with this game that I had a dream about it the other night. I tend to stay up untill 3am playing and have been known to skip school to play.. :o If anyone is interested, it is a GREAT MMORPG, one of the best in my opinion.If you play or plan to play, you can find me on Deathwing PVP (mountain time) as Scarecrow or Arolyn.The game requires a 1 time fee to purchase and a monthly fee (which is paid by 1 month, 3 months and 6 months) 6 months came to $90 CDN which is about $73 US or ₤38 (approximatley).If you or someone you know is interested in MMO's this is the game for them!

Zfactor Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 What style of game is WOW? I was thinking about getting it, but nobody seems to be able to accurately describe it... If it is like the origional WarCraft games then it's not for me, but if it is like say, Diablo 2 then I would pick it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted December 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 the original Warcraft series (I, II and III) were strategy based games. This means you basically control an army (like Command and Conqour and Starcraft)World of Warcraft is an RPG (Role Playing Game) Where you control 1 character and do things such as quests, crafting, and other various skills like blacksmithing, leather working, fishing etc..Basically in WoW you control 1 character, and you can customize EVERY aspect of this character. No 2 characters in the game are identical, because there is so many variables you can choose from. I think of it as an online community (like Ultima Online) but with more combat involved. This game is very much like other MMORPG's like Everquest, Asheron's Call etc.This game is based on Warcraft III, but is an RPG instead of Strategy.
