It require's a lot of stabbing to be a real pro. This game is awesome!
World of Warcraft perfects all the basics:create a character,enter a beautifully detailed world along with hundreds of other real people,take on quests and develop your character.To be honest,there's not a lot of innovation,but would you rather play a game with loads of ideas that didn't work?Exactly.
Warrior,Warlock,rogue,priest - there's the usual choice of classes,and a few trade skills thrown in for good measure,but the most important choice you make is whether you fight for the Alliance or the Horde - the goodies or the baddies.There's a cast of humans,gnomes,dwarves and elves against orcs,undead,trolls and tauren to choose from.As you become more powerful,you'll come into contact with enemy players,and if you play on a player vs. player server you'll have the chance to fight them - sometimes in massive groups of cooperating players.
The star of the show has to be the world itself.There's an unbelievable amount of variety to be discovered,from deserts to grassland and forests.The cartoon-like presentation ties everything together nicely - you'll never look at something and think it looks stupid.Play it for to long though,and you'll start to wonder why real people look so weird.
All in All this is a great MMORPG for gamers who tend to stab a lot of things:P
