As promised, i shall write something about wow...
WoW is actually known as World of Warcraft. It is a MMORPG which is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game. In the game itself there are several races between 2 factions to choose from..
The 2 factions are the Alliance and the Horde..
The alliance consist of Humans,Dwarves,Gnomes and Night elves.
The horde consist of Orcs, Trolls, Undead and Taurens.
There are also classes in the game, classes being what ur character will be..
There are many classes to choose from.
Warriors
Rogues
Hunters
Priests
Druids
Warlocks
Mages
Paladins(Alliance)
Shamans(Horde)
Besides classes, there are professions to choose from, Leatherworking,enchanting,tailoring, fishing etc...
These, professions will aid u in ur adventures in the game, like say u are a rogue and can only wear leather armour, u can actually take up leatherworking to craft armour for urself.. and also, to get the leather, u can take up skinning to skin off beasts in the wild.
In the first edition not including the expansion, ur character has a level cap of level 60... But the adventure doesnt end at level 60, its just the start of the adventure... Because there are so many people at level 60, there are just so much things to do at that level.
Doing instances(dungeons), Farming(killing mobs repeatedly to get some rare drop), Raids(Doing high level instances tt require at least 20men to 40men and takes a bit of time a lots of coordination). And also PvP(Battle ground vs players of the other faction)
Guilds - there are many guilds formed where many people with the same goals band to gether and form a clan basically, many different guilds have many different aims, for example, some may aim to do well in end game raiding and achieve gear success, some may be just there to mix around and have fun etc.
As end game raiding requires alot of time, like maybe 3 to 5hours depending on the character's gear and skill level, some people just dont do raid because they aint have the time and their main aim of playing is to enjoy themselves n 2 make friends.
Its a very interactive game where by, u definately need to cooperation of others to succeed in the game... and u can never do it alone...
