    Cyleen's GameLog for World of Warcraft (PC)

    Tuesday 15 January, 2008

    Summary:
    World of Warcraft is an online game based of the PC games of Warcraft. It is supposed to take place five years after the Warcraft III. In World of Warcraft you can make your own character who you play as, and you can interact with other people's characters. There are ten races to choose from, five of which are alliance and the other five are Horde. There are also five to six classes for each race to choose from, such as a hunter, warrior and many more. There are multiple objectives to the game. The main points to the game is to do quests, PVP (player versus player) and to level till you hit the max; the max level is 70 right now.

    Game play:
    The game play was fairly decent. I started off by creating my character; she was a night elf hunter. Basically as soon as I started I was doing quests. That was mostly what I did for the hour I played. Most quests involve killing something, collecting something, or talking or bringing something to someone. I liked the character in the game because it was what I created and I felt very connected to her. Almost as though I was really her. I even came up with my characters own back story linking her to Warcraft III. It made her feel more real, and it made the game more fun.
    I thought it was interesting because I enjoyed trying to level my character, and I was always excited to get new armor and new weapons. Also I enjoyed being able to talk to my friends, who also played the game, online. What I did not like was not being able to figure out where to go in order to finish a quest. Sometimes the quests never really said where to to fined what object I was looking for or where to find what I need to kill. I found this frustrating and would give me head aches trying to figure it out. Also it made me sad to kill animals in the game especially neutral ones because they are harmless. I was mostly upset when i had to kill owls for a quest because i love owls; they are one of my favorite animals. When a hunter reaches level ten they can tame a beast as their pet to help them battle. I hope to tame an owl.

    Could you please put spaces between paragraphs to make it easier to read? It's not going to effect your grade or anything...just a request from a humble grader.

    Your gameplay reads a lot like a blow by blow. We're looking for an analysis of the elements that make up the moment to moment play experience and the world it takes place in. Things that might make WoW more popular that other MMO's, which all have roughly the same core game dynamic.

    For example, Blizzard is well known for having clear interfaces. How does the menu system and the HUD layout either make play frustrating or simple. how about the customizability of the interface?

    Describe how the player interacts with an controls the avatar and the ways in which it does and doesn't work. Does queuing spells instead of mashing the spacebar relax a gameplay experience or detract from game immersion.
