Nothing beats the feeling of waking up in the local inn with extra experience bonus points to the sound of warlocks dueling and the quiet footsteps of the sly rogue. Welcome to Azeroth, the fictional land of World of Warcraft.
This game has content for every player type. If I am feeling like a bit of a lone wolf, I can go embark on some quests from one of the 50 cities in the game. Sometimes I’ll grab a headset and find a 25-man group and tackle an out-of-this-world dragon. Even if I am not in the mood to play, I can just log in and sit in a major city and chat with players all around the world about anything we can think of.
Many players (including myself) find themselves easily sucked in; it’s as if there’s an entire new life waiting for them when they log in. WoW also allows me the ability to decide for myself whether I play as hero or villain. In this game, I can be the childhood hero I always wanted to be, whether I am ultimately paid in gold or in reputation. Azeroth is my gaming home away from home, a world of fantastic mysteries.
