Warcraft Quest

A massive amount of eleven million players.   Two expansion packs. $1.2 billion a year in revenue.  16 Gigs on your hard drive  .  Trillions of hours spent in front of monitors all over the world  .  Massive media coverage.   A black market for trading in gold, characters and equipment for billions of dollars. An episode of South Park.

Guess what!  It is the NEW World of Warcraft expansion pack; World of Warcraft Cataclysm. Soon it will be on the market!  However, it is not certain when in 2010, but it will be this year for sure! It gets bigger and better!  Not only because there are two new races but you can now level up to level 85! But it is not the only new thing. There will be a new Horde race, new Alliance race, new race / class combinations, new monsters! There are also new dungeons and raids and the world has also changed!

We all know that it is the biggest game in the world. Literally … But how big is it? It is huge! You can just walk around for hours if not days exploring new parts of the world or new dungeons! There will always be something new to explore! Especially when the new expansion pack comes it gets larger! There is more to explore, there are new quests! Nothing in the gaming industry really compares to WoW! 

It surprises probably not those who already are in the game but once again surprised the public that doesn’t understand the attractiveness of the giant online gaming world (MMORPG – Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game – or in short form: MMO) that WoW can give you. Maybe because WoW is so huge and so impossible to ignore people start saying that it is geeky and something like that.

But this is just all the hype in the media and has nothing to do with what is really the World of Warcraft. Because it’s when you are playing the game that you realise, that this is huge, and then you understand why so many people spend so much of their time playing the game. 

World of Warcraft is such a fantastic game. Forget all those who say it’s geeky! Go ahead and play it!  You will enjoy. Believe me . You can also learn new people in WoW because there is so many who plays it that you will meet someone you starts peaking to, playing together in teams .

It is a game created with great skills and a perfection of the exceptionally talented team of people behind, Blizzard Entertainment. And now we’re wating for the fourth chapter in the WoW story. The journey began with  The World of Warcraft, then came The Burning Crusade and then in 2008 came  The Wrath of the Lich King –  and now 11 million players all over the world are waiting  for World of Warcraft: Cataclysm – and it will be huge .

One thing that is good. The Blizzard team didn’t prioritize graphics over gameplay. So don’t expect so much of the graphics, but just think about getting started . The game is perfect, but the graphics could in my opinion be better.

World of Warcraft Cataclysm is expected to hit retail in November 2010 – but it’s only a guess at this stage, which has something to do with Blizzard wanting to dominate Christmas again this year. And another thing is, that they probably want to give   Starcraft 2 (releasing 27 July) a couple of months for capturing the gamers’ game budget  …
