Wednesday Wind-Up

This week's Wind-Up....

WoW: It's just a game...

What I say? No, it's not just a game.

When you pay US$15 each month in order to play this game, it means a lot more than something you don't have to pay for.
When you spend hours, days, months, years just trying to level and build your characters up, they mean more to you than some Sim that's easily replicated.
When you build or join a guild, make friends (or enemies) and learn to live in Azeroth, it means more than some uninteresting landscape.
When the lore surrounds and encompasses you, getting you caught up in the fever, it means more then some world where you're just...there. (I'm looking at you Runescape)
When you RP your character, build their qualities and faults, strengths and weaknesses, family bonds and ties of friendship, they are often more real, more easily understood  then that stranger down the street.

Yes, WoW is a game. But it's not JUST a game! It's a way of life.

Later days.
