... so its been a while .. more than a week since I picked up my copy of WoW. I finally got around to writing this.

World of Warcraft is I think the best MMO out there right now. Its hard to quantify all the diffrent things about it, but let me try to put it all together.

- no load times .. the world is continual, there is zones, but you don’t notice you’ve crossed a zone boundary other than the new zone name popping up and your map changing .. - quests .. there is a lot of quests, they are not hard to find (there is a big yellow ”!” on top of any NPC which has a quest for you, and a ”?” on a NPC who is waiting for you to complete a quest with them) - enemies .. the encouters are done pretty well, the game is very soloable (and I like that), for some bosses its usefull to team up with another person, but for the most part its soloable. (there are other things which require groups, but thats not part of the everyday gameplay) - crafting .. the grind from crafting is practically removed, the difficulty on items is perfectly staggered so you have to make each item at most twice to keep getting new items to make, you get new items every 5-10 skill points which isnt much at all ..

that’s about all .. I’m not sure what else to write ..
