I hear all this bitching about it, yet, I personally haven't seen negative towards myself from anyone else. Addicting it may be, you can most likely call it the new RuneScape. This is no insult to RuneScape players out there, as I'm an apt player myself, but meh. I'm probably flawed in my judgment of the games.

I can't play WoW for certain reasons I will not list, but I've seen it played *right* next to me, and personally, it doesn't seem all that bad. I would play it, but I wouldn't become some godawful nerd that plays day and night with no life.

I have some friends that play WoW, and they don't seem addicted, but I don't understand a thing they say. This "Raid" talk is foreign to me, as I''m retro and only have played Warcraft III+Expansion. The only reason I'd consider playing WoW is for the storyline, since I don't see anything wrong with that. It's just like having an interactive book! I personally LOVED Warcraft III's storyline, as it was an epic twist to Warcraft II's ending. As the frozen throne left off with Arthas as the new lich king, I was curious to what happened next. I may play WoW despite orders not to, but an addiction? I see not.
