My View on This Great But Lacking Game!
User Rating: 7.6 | World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade PC
World of Warcraft is indeed a great game. It incorporates many great things of the MMORPG genre while adding slightly new touches and a somewhat better look to RPG games. In essence yes it is a revolutionary game but I do believe that the monthly fee goes a bit far. I know many people have debated about this issue. I simply believe that for what the game offers the little minor updates here and there arn't worth my 18 dollars(CDN) a month. Just my two cents on that topic. Otherwise WoW is everything it should but that is when it first came out. With the expansion it has become a slightly better game but only with new content not much new game play or features that we havn't seen before(except flying mounts of course). I believe wow will soon only be played by the elite aka. people with accounts almost full or full of lvl 70 character's and this is because of 2 things: 1) other games of the Genre that don't cost money but offer the same experience of play minus a few things(Guild Wars, Titan Quest and their relative expansions) and Directx10 I believe the new graphics and enhancements that could be made to this game will happen in dx10 on another game(Hopefully an improved version of WOW in the form of Diablo Muahaha). Although the monthly fees are a minor set-back don't let it discourage you because WoW is a great game with plenty of things to offer, so if you feel the urge go ahead indulge for this once and have fun but if you are weary of the monthly fee take a look at the Guild Wars series or Titan quest both great games with no monthly fee.
