World of Warcraft : World's Most Popular Online Game

Yey, sorry for my long-time absence xD...

Now, I'm back and, again, let's discuss about an online game :P....
What I'm going to tell you now is the most popular game in the world, only the introduction, because if I tell you the whole thing, this will be endless :P...

World of Warcraft (WoW) is a sequel from Warcraft III, which is an offline game, and popular because of a map called Defense of the Ancients (a.k.a DotA).

This game, like another games, has NO end, but it has lots of quest that challenges us and many alternative ways we can choose to be the best, not like another games, which we will feel we're the best if we reach MAX level, fully-geared, etc. But, WoW is not always like that. Most of the times, skilled one could beat the cocky-full geared one.

And about the quests, sometimes, the quests make a chain of story, which no games don't have, and we also can discover the full story, the history, and some secret!

This game also got many Private Servers, which are free and give more fun, but also separate players.
For me, everything is fine, my main reason here are to be able to improve my English and be able to communicate with others, because I entered an US server and I was forced to speak English.

But, why this games is not popular in Indonesia?
First, we need a highly-specced computer and internet connection which can handle the game.
Second, it is FULL-ENGLISH and we need tons of vocab to understand it!
Third, Indonesian gamers mostly are lazy to play games with another languange.

Actually, this game are good. We can learn many things here, like teamwork (because there are many things which are impossible to do it alone), how to communicate with others, etc.

Well, there are still many things to explain, but let's put an end on my explanation here. If you're interested, you can ask some questions here.

See ya!
