My project focuses on MMORPGs and I have chosen to study the only one that I had ever heard of before: World of Warcraft. My roommate's boyfriend has long since been obsessed with playing WoW and prior to this project, he was the only person that I knew who played. What I know from him is that it focuses on people controlling characters, going on various missions, and interacting with others in the game. One of his favorite aspects of the game is playing it with others; he uses a microphone to communicate with people all over the world as they engage in various activities within the game. From everything that I've heard from him, it's a highly addictive experience.
My expectations for playing this game is that I will enjoy seeing what it's all about. I'm not sure how much I will like constant interaction with other players and I don't know that I'm wild about using a microphone to communicate. I have just downloaded the game and will be making my first journey into the world of WoW this week. I wanted to record my initial impressions of the game and see how they change as I spend my time playing. More to come!
