World of Warcraft is not just an ordinary game, but it's absoloutely the best massively multiplayer online role playing game in existence. Well, how? How can be answered by just getting that easy feel of playing. It is quite indeed that one game that stands at a completely different level of any other game in existence.
Upon installation and account creation, you will have to make a choice between two factions for character creation. These factions are the Horde and the Alliance. The Horde are made up of the Orc, Trolls, Undead, and Tauren. The Alliance consist of the Humans, Night Elves, Dwarves, and Gnomes. Your choice upon which faction that you choose will alter gameplay in a psychological sense, that you will favor that faction over the other. Although this is true to many people, you are allowed to "re-roll" another character on that same server if it is a normal or RP(Role-playing) server. In the case that the server is a PVP(Player VS Player) server, you will have to delete your character to make one of the other faction.
When you start playing, you will notice that it is very, very easy to get into. The interface and action bars that Blizzard gives to you is such a easy to understand thing that you don't even need to read the manual. Unlike many other role-playing games, combat in the game is as simple as clicking or pressing on a button and you're in it. Combat is at a steady pace and new players will find it very engaging.
Doing the quests can range from delivering a package to a dwarf to slaying dreaded raid bosses. Once you reach level 10, you can do a type of PVP called Battlegrounds. Just by itself, engaging in battlegrounds is very fun and addicting. In the battlegrounds, you fight the opposing faction that you are, Alliance VS. Horde. The current battlegrounds are Warsong Gulch(Levels 10-60 with level brackets), Arathi Basin(Levels 10-60 with level brackets), and Alterac Valley(Levels 51-60).
The graphics that you will find in WoW are pretty nice. It's not the best graphics out there but the graphics fit in just perfectly with the combat in game. Putting the settings at the highest level gives you a fantastic feel of just the scenery and war in WoW. A high-end PC is prefferred if you want to experience this, but a PC with alright specs is just fine for lower graphic settings.
The sound and music you will hear is sweet. The music sound track goes along with the sort of medieval styles of WoW. Each sound track fits the mood of the place that you are in. If you are like me, I prefer listening to other music while playing, because that's just me. The sounds of swords clashing against shields and the war-cries of men are great. The sound effect that you will hear from casting a spell and the voices you will hear from your character are very crisp.
How addicting can this game exactly be? This game can be so addicting that you will call in sick. As you progress through the game, it just gets more addicting with trying to collect better armor, player versus player combat, and hanging with friends.
Eventually hitting 60, the game offers raid content. This content can be at an epic scale and can give you a feel that you just killed a humongous dragon or a 2-headed monster dog. One of the main goals of raiding high-end instances is for the loot, which gives you a prestige of honor and jealousy from others. Especially, getting end-game armor and doing PVP with that armor will make you feel like a god.
