Hello I am a avid MMORPG player. I have played alot of them my most recent venture was FFXI. So in that case i have compared WoW to FFXI. WoW has got some of the best graphics i have ever seen. WoW is one of those games that just takes you by storm. It is a really fun game to play. But it has its pros and cons like all games do. Since i was Playing FFXI before this the controls were a little diffrent but that is to be expected. But the graphics are 10X better that FFXI. I personally like FFXI better but i have been seeing my self lean toward WoW more now because of the new factor mostly. But also because of the fast pace the game is. Leveling in the begining is pretty easy but once you hit about 15-17 it slows considerably. But the thing that is cool is that for completing missions you get experience points. That is a big pro since coming from FFXI. But some of the cons in my case is that you dont see to many people form groups in the game except to go do raids or chasm missions. I like FFXI about that you work as a team and you need team members to help you out. In WoW it is more like a single person game. You can do everything yourself in WoW mission killing mobs that are 1-2 lvls above you and just stuff like that. I dont know maybe it is just my server but i think that the team concept should be addressed in WoW. But overall this is a very fun game to play. Like i said before i have stopped playing FFXI because i am so interseted in seeing what is going to happen next in WoW. I would recomend this game to any and every person that likes MMORPG's. It has taken my breath away witht the graphics and pretty much everything aobut it. One more thing is that i would recomend the Tauren race and shaman class this is my highest character on the game and i have a blast playing with him.

A couple weeks ago I had some doubts about this game. I've never been one for wizard and elf, slay the dragon, fetch the magic stick kind of games, if you follow me, but I do have tremendous faith in Blizzard. So, I entered into the WoW stress test to get a real idea of what the game was like. After 10 days and many sleepless nights of gameplay, here's my opinion. Im no stranger to the MMO genre. I've dipped into EQ, AO, E&B, SWG, and Eve:Online, among others, but World Of Warcraft is the best I've played yet. Playing as a super-sexy and fierce gnome mage, from my first romp through the snomy mountains of Dun Morogh, to my first ride via Griffin, after playing dozens of mini-quests and playing through some of the most imaginative multi-legged quests I've ever seen, and following the most amazing experiances Ive had in a game yet fighting through the instance dungeans known as "The Deadmines" and "Gnomeregan", Im just blown away. In it's unfinished form, with a huge amount of content still to be added and an even larger amount I was unable to see in my 10 day playtime, this game is just spectacular. Ill personally be beating my head against the walls, bored out of my mind waiting for the release of World Of Warcraft.
