Games – World of Warcraft

Starcraft, Diablo, Diablo II, and the Warcraft trilogy are just some of the most outstanding games blizzard has to offer. Blizzard has been in the gaming industry for quite a long time, and never have they disappointed anyone with the quality of gaming they give to the gamers. From strategy games upto Role Playing Games (RPG), we can say that blizzard has been one of the greatest game providers in these fields. Some may think that Blizzard is already at its peak and their games would soon decline, but after a few years of development Blizzard was able to create a game taken from the concept of one of their famous strategy game, Warcraft, and gave it a whole new look. A change that everyone did not expect from Blizzard, that change was the World of Warcraft.

The World of Warcraft, awarded as the best PC game of the year (2004), is an MMORPG based from the campaign of the Warcraft trilogy. An MMORPG or Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game is a type of game where people from across the globe can meet up in the form of their desired and custom made characters. Through this game, there were a lot of positive feedbacks to which lead the game to its present state. The game World of Warcraft or WoW has been one of the most popular online games in the world. The game took the concept of an RPG, strategy and action to a whole new level. What’s good about the game is it actually supports the Warcraft trilogy by serving as a storyteller to the unending war of the Alliance and the Horde. The trilogy basically had open endings to make the players wonder more about the story of the game, with WoW, it tries to patch loose ends by giving side stories, and the continuation of the Alliance versus Horde war.

People often see this game as yet another ordinary Player versus Player enabled RPG where after a some training they could already engage and then dominate the game easily. The game features a wide variety of characters each with unique abilities and background stories that supports the plot of the Alliance versus Horde war. The game starts of with the player choosing which side he/she would want to side with to fight the war. There are 10 character types, and 9 playable classes in this game, which gives the player a wider variety in choosing a character. It can be a combination of a Troll character with a Priest class, a Gnome Warrior or even a Blood Elf Paladin, it’s all up to the player’s creativity and strategy on how they would use the race’s unique attributes and specialties to their advantage.

The game follows a certain storyline depending on which race the player chooses. This enhances the gameplay as the story is quite different from one race to the other, but as the game progresses the players can connect those different side stories in which they would be able to understand the whole story of the game. Through the game’s large number of quests, the game would then be able to retain it’s mysterious factor as the players strive to complete each quest that opens up different chapters in the game. WoW is definitely something a story-based-gamer would not get tired of playing.
