Eleven million players. Two expansion packs. $1.2 billion a year in revenue. 16GB on your HDD . Billions and billions of hours played . Miles of press coverage. A black market for trading in gold, characters and equipment for billions of dollars. And even an episode of South Park.
Guess what! It is the NEW World of Warcraft expansion pack; World of Warcraft Cataclysm. It will probably release in November this year. 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! Of course, there are also new dungeons and raids, and obviously also the world has seen some changes.
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’s probably not a surprise to those playing the game, but people not playing the game, have a difficult time understanding the attractiveness of this Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game – or MMORPG as it’s abbreviated.
But all those opinions overshadow the most important thing about World of Warcraft! If you try to ignore those opinions and actually start playing you can see all the figures, the huge world, all the quests you have to do and lots of more fantastic things.
World of Warcraft is such a fantastic game. Forget all those who say it’s geeky! Play it for God’s sake! You will enjoy. Believe you 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. Of course it all began with The World of Warcraft, then came The Burning Crusade followed by The Wrath of the Lich King – and now we’re all waiting for Cataclysm – and it will be huge, with midnight gatherings at the retail stores all over the world .
One good thing. 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, that’s something 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 to conquer the gamers’ pocket money …
