    Es probablemente el MMO RPG mas importante y sin dudas el mas masivo de la historia. Un juegazo, con un lore impresionante, un mundo inmenso, y que con el pasar de los años y a pesar de no tener graficos de vanguardia, se mantiene vigente y activo.

    I see why people liked it back in 2004. From today's perspective, it's like a free-to-play title with an unpolished UI. The starting story (until level 60) consists out of boring text boxes that nobody seems to read. Dungeons are pretty random and linear as dragon age origin campaign maps. Most Quests consist out of killing a number of enemies and collecting their remains. If it would beI see why people liked it back in 2004.

    Decent MMO RPG but the graphics is horrible to say the least. Also the subscription system is just stupid.

    Blizzard is not a company you should support. If you know everything goi g on that they do and still willingly support them, you should re evaluate yourself

    MMOs certainly aren't for everyone, hence the relatively low user score. For me though, WoW is a simply phenomenal game. The scale of this game's world, not only in regards to size but also lore is like nothing else. Indeed, the game's lore is so detailed that I got sucked into learning everything about it through playing Warcraft III and hours of scrolling on Wowpedia.

Furthermore, the art-style and music are amazing. The game-play is so varied with 12 classes; if you get bored with one then simply switch it up, which is now easier than ever with the free level-cap boosts that Blizzard give away every expansion. While the quest system can be rather repetitive and grindy in a lot of the earlier content, since Warlords of Draenor, Blizzard have made massive progress in this area. Meanwhile, Dungeons and Raids, as well as PvP have always been exciting and varied. Overall, a truly revolutionary game which brought MMOs into the mainstream. Not everybody's cup of tea, but when it is, it REALLY is.… Expand

    First of all, this game still is one of the games that still is using a subscription service. 30 days of game time is around 15$, and for me, it isn’t worth it.
    I refuse to treat WoW as a job or a chore, Farming the rep that takes 1-2 hours a day for 1 month or more to get to the point that you need to be at, isn’t fun. That is a chore.

    It got a good story, but sadly it has been in decline and less and less engaging during the last 2 Expansions.
    Heavily time-consuming, to the point that i have better enjoyment of playing another game.
    Heavily grind focused, especially since Legion with the introduction with allied races and reputation required ranks.
    Manufacturing professions are even worse. They are more or less pointless at this point. The only professions i have seen worth getting are Herbalist, Alchemy, Fishing, and Cooking as they give items Raiders use very often on raid nights.
    Dreading to log into WoW and having to do a laundry list(chores) of stuff eventually burns anyone out.

    "6/10 – Average, only held back by a few issues (or stiff competition).
    Not always the best choice, but it can get the job done. There’s some good idea, but they’re buried under some bad ones and poor execution. We have major complaints, there are enough excellent qualities to cancel most of them out."

Nearly all the original team have moved on. The team remaining is filled with mostly fans of the product that all have their own vision of what the game should be like and it shows in not only the gameplay but storyline as well. Each Expansion of the product feels like it's another revamp of the same game with each new iteration being worse than the last for the most part.

    There is also the issue of the focus of the product which drives this harmful mentality of treating the game more of a job rather than a game as the product constantly comes out with "limited time" earnable items that are designed to keep users focused on certain areas of the game, like raiding for example. Meanwhile if you look at the games other systems they are either neglected or just downright unappealing when compared to other games out on the market.

    This brings me to the graphics which if you only look at the latest expansion’s region will look moderately okay but that would be selective criticism of a massive game in this market. No, the reality is that the graphics in this product is all over the place for in this product you can find a wide array of graphics from something you'd see straight from the PlayStation 1 era to even the PlayStation 2 era as well and more. What would make it worse is that these regions would be side by side one another as well. Not only breaking immersion but also breaking the looks of your character as well since the same goes for the items and even mounts in the product as well.

    The sound is alright though outside of some regions clearly having a lower sound quality then others, which if your leveling through the game as a fresh toon and fresh player can be quite immersion breaking as well when you do finally notice it.

    The leveling experience in this product is frankly not a smooth experience. There are several issues with how the product treats leveling from scratch, but I’ll focus on the main issues to lessen time. First is how the game doesn't want you to level from scratch, instead they'll try and push you straight to the end game, so you can go and play their latest content. If someone is a new player you never want them to start in the endgame, you want them to earn their way there, so they can experience the whole product and not just a small portion of it. Second is how many quests it'll toss at you, it'll be fine if it wasn't just outright tossed in my face, but it is, quite literally Infact as there is even a quest board which you must go use to get into certain regions as a new player. Third is the narrative which is just all over the place. After leveling from scratch from level 1 to max and doing all the quests in the best order I could, I was utterly confused on where I stood in the storyline as I was literally forced to constantly jump to and from the present to the past. All regions in the game follow a pattern of having a few heavily populated areas and the rest being barren land that's never used, not even for quests and even when they are supposed to be used for a quest you can sometimes find that the thing needed there is no longer something that'll spawn or was frankly somewhere else. This leads to you mostly googling on where to go and finding user comments rather than going by what the game is telling you.

    There is also the issue of the User Interface which is just straight up not good. For example the game has a feature that if you attack a mob you'll see a healthbar that would float above that mobs head and this interface is straight up not functionally plausible to use on some mobs as there either just too big to fit nicely on the screen while other times the healthbar gets overlapped with the other mobs near them causing you to see a huge vertical line of healthbars and not only that but the appeal of this floating healthbar is way too out of place with the rest of the visual designs of the UI, which all have their own set of issues which I won’t be getting into. But suffice to say, the User interface needs a complete overhaul. Many players for this product infact don't even use the default user interface which brings me to my last point, The community.

    In this product the community is frankly one of the worst communities this genre has to offer. They're rarely helpful towards one another as they're mostly barking at each other throats even within their own factions and they're just downright unhelpful towards new players for the most part. There is a very small minority of players that play this product that are very helpful, but those people are few and far between. Most of your experiences in game will be littered with League of Legends level of interactions. Your honestly better off just avoiding people in this game if you favor being entertained rather the opposite.

    This is my take on it and I must say I was bored every second that I played it. Your Honestly better off playin FFXIV.    … Expand

    This game is super satisfying. It's not based on killing hundreds and hundreds monsters, or riding from one NPC to another. WoW has... Something special.
    Also playing with a friend, sibling, partner... Makes game just better.

    Great game...eh okay I have to admit that I wasn't there in the beginning. I came after Cataclysm, but hey at least I was part of the very first game Warcraft: Orcs & Humans and so on, so I have been part of this way before World of Warcraft-series began.

    According to others review a lot were changed during the Cataclysm.

    The game isn't flawless, nor is it technically finished - a good many quests fall into a "kill 20 of enemy X and collect 9 of item Y" pattern, a lot of promised end-game content still isn't in, and there are still bugs being squashed - but it's easily the closest MMORPGs have yet come to perfection. If this one doesn't hook you, nothing will.

    Although it's not as technologically proficient as "EverQuest II," World of Warcraft has a more pronounced sense of style...If you're looking for a new MMORPG, then the World of Warcraft is the very first place you should visit.
