Am I the only one on earth not having played WOW?
July 17th, 2007Today I woke up and this question puzzled my mind. Seriously, I’m the only male, roleplay fan, that hasn’t even only tried to play WOW for 5 minutes? not even the free demo? probably yes!
To be honest I never ever approached that game because I was quite confident that… I would have been addicted. Knowing how good are the Blizzard guys, I suppose (because, as I said, I just saw some screenshots about WOW and that’s it) that I would have been “enslaved”.
I know another friend that entered the beta program, played the game for 10 minutes, and commented “it’s magnificent, a masterpiece” then quickly uninstalled it, and gave the beta copy to another friend, all this just to avoid to vanish from real-life! he has a family and a daily job… quite hard to play WOW and have to work/feed someone at same time!
Also considering how many ads you see everywhere for “WOW Gold Sellers”, I suppose that only looking at that you can get a good estimate on how that game can be popular.
Who knows, maybe one day I’ll try it – but surely not now. I’m too scared to disappear from real life.
No you are not the only one, i havent played it yet, however i might take the plunge in a couple of months.
Nope, your not, i haven’t played it and i can pretty much consider myself an experienced beta tester and MMO player. In fact, i’m not even going to try to play it, since it doesn’t suit my MMO taste (which is really hard to satisfy these days)
I haven’t played it either for the same reason, that I believe I would become addicted. I have too many other projects and things in life that I need to work on and by the sounds of WOW… I’m better off not knowing what I am missing.
I play it, and I don’t seem addicted. But it’s good that you’re not trying it out, cause both my brothers are addicted, and this addiction can get REALLY bad. So – yeah – keep your life. =D
