There is a place called Azeroth with many races who battle for power. The alliance and horde, two factions with races that share mutual hatred for one another, vie for control. However, both groups have a common enemy to defeat whether its evil forest trolls or undead kings riding frost dragons. No matter what side the player chooses, he will be a citizen with dreams of end level greatness and loot. Who doesn't like phat loot?
World of Warcraft was designed with simple and standard WASD controls. The game play is designed to be strong in any situation. If the player is more inclined to go it alone, playing solo is an option. But, this game is very streamlined for small parties and large assault raids. Also, for newcomers, World of Warcraft can be daunting at first but the tutorials are very helpful.
Newcomers to the World of Warcraft will also like the aesthetic. It's a beautiful game. The visual design of this mmorpg is definitely far from a generic place. Fantasy is a far overused genre. Blizzard has a unique world and they've made the world of Azeroth vividly imaginative. Nevertheless, the one major flaw with World of Warcraft is that the music is forgettable. It's not terrible for the ears by any means, but it's not as distinct as the music in Blizzard's earlier games.

The most important question is this, "Is World of Warcraft worth the money?" The answer is up to the player. The game is worth the money, but admittedly it drags on. Moderation is the name of the game. SuperGamerology played this game to level 74, which means we got a strong grasp of the game sicne there are only 80 levels to play.The basic game starts at 20 dollars and that gets you up to level 60. The expansions range from $20 to $40 each last we checked (there are 2 of them). And this does not include the monthly fee of $14.95. Overall it can be pricey, but it has its pros and cons (Big community and game play versus $money$). It's worth checking out the basic game with the free month game play.

Possibly a mitigating factor to the cost of playing the game is the fact that there's a real world, cash money market for things Warcrafty. I've known people to sell gold, gear, and even accounts.
ReplyDeleteI agree about how it "drags on". There are definitely periods between content releases where boredom lurks.
ReplyDeleteI've always thought the game was worth the monthly price, but I've also always been the type of player to think you're not getting you're moneys worth if you're not experiencing the end game. I think one of the keys of the games success is the amount of content available to top level players. It's easy to want more, but having played many an mmo in my day I've found that WoW has a lot more end game content than most others.
If you've played WoW, but haven't quite capped a character yet, I highly recommend it. It's really where the game starts to get interesting, IMO.
World of Warcraft is a great game that deserves praise for all the things it does right. Its a fun experience. At the same time the longer you play it the more you expect as with any mmo and for some it definitely can be a hard choice to continue.
