Yes~! I haven't blogged for a few days! Cos the reason is obvious. World of Warcraft! Heh...
This is a little bit of what I feel about the game. Yes, it came out about a year and a half. Why start only now? The markets inside are already saturated with pros and L33ts? I'm just wanna try it out and see why the fuss is everyone playing it. Now i knew why. =P
The world inside is just so detailed and has a fair amount of realism inside. So mesmerising. We can jump down and die from trees, swim in the sea, hop on a boat and travel between continents (without any loading screens, in fact, i only saw one laoding screen). Flying on a hippogryphs around Darkshore via Moonglade, has just opened my eyes what technology has created. It's a whole damn world inside! Swooping around with the hippo, flying into ravines, mountain sides, forests and beaches, the creatures just looked so real life! Compared to Guild Wars, World of Warcraft wins hands down with the realism aspect. Guild wars has locked regions where characters arent suppose to go, WoW can go anywhere. Even jumping 20 metres into the Lake is POSSIBLE! Swimming underwater gathering items is possible! A beautiful world that has its attractive values... heh
On to the society reference in the game! The economy has overwhelming diversity! Different poffessions like minng engineering, leatherworksm, alchemy and etc... There is even an Auction house inside for ppl to trade! EBAY!!!! A mailing post to send items to otheres items and letters! Holy shit!!! A great training ground for entrepuruers wannabes!
The freedom we have in the game is unbounded! Total freedom that i saw gave life in front of the comp a whole new meaning! Investment is long, monthly subscription is expensive. It's bloody worth every cent of it!
Characters get to use all their skills in the field! not only 8 *ahem* GW *ahem* selected skills! You can even create macros to use them! Better game play!
What i mentioned here is not even a pinch of salt of WoW. I have walked a lot... But i haven't even covered 1/10 of the world map.
The choice is for you to make. Who wanna try? I got a 10 day guest pass for people to try! Feel free to call me =P
Btw i sold my Lumix FZ20! Wee~! With the spare cash i bought the WoW atlas. It's that big and elaborate in the cities, that i spent approximately an hour trying to find just one NPC...
Didn't get the WoW guidebooks. Costs a freaking $51!! Altas was cheaper! Plus i can get all the guides online! Hehe...
So now it's some researching for me to do! How to do marcro and stuff.... Servers are on maintainence today so that's why I'm here typing =X
