World of Warcraft, It it Worth Your Time?

Getting started on WoW is never a quick process, first you have to get through the installation.
So, you've got your WoW discs, and for the full game experience I recommend you picking up the Burning Crusade expansion pack if you don't already have it. Once you've installed the discs you have to set up your account, entering your basic details, and method of payment.
You have to pay to play this game. Obviously, as this game is online, and constantly changing is need constant work doing on it. That work needs to be payed for, and the price you pay for the discs isn't going to cut it. By direct debit the game costs 8.99 a month, but you can pay quarterly, six monthly, and annually, decreasing the cost of play slightly.
Fortunately you can also buy pre-pay cards for younger players, or those who are more careful with their card details. (though I have never heard of any problems with Blizzards security)
So, you're accounts set up, the games installed, you're ready to play, right?....
Wrong!
Now you have to endure hours and hours of updates being installed. This can be made an absolute nightmare if your computer isn't the fastest thing on earth. But just stick with it, it'll get there.
Three days later....
OK, so, you're ready to play. First thing first. You need to choose your server. This is where you will play. Obviously, all the millions of players can't play together, the system would crash, so this is how they split them up. There are a couple of things to think about when you select you server.
1 - If you want to play with friends who already have the game find out what server they are on. You won't be able to play with them otherwise
2- Is the server status recommended, med, or high. High means there are loads of players on it, and this can result in it being slow, and also has lot's of high level players, making it difficult for lower levels to buy goods from the auction house or to find other players to quest with.
3- Is the server Normal, PVP, RP, or RPPVP.
PVP is player versus player. In normal mode players can only attack each other unless they agree to a duel, or set their status to pvp. In PVP you can be attacked by another player at any time.
RP is roleplay. You are expected to stay in character.
RPPVP speaks for itself.
Now we've selected the server you get to choose your character. You can do a fair bit to change your characters appearance by changing their hair, face, colour etc, but it could be better by allowing you to altar individual features, and facial shapes etc, and having more options.
The most important decision you will make here is Horde or Alliance. These are basically good guys, bad guys. The two cannot communicate in anyway throughout the game, and are at war, so if you set yourself to PVP it is only the opposite faction that you can attack, and that can attack you. It's also important here to be the same as your friends if you want to be able to play with them.
Once you've chosen you race (human, orc, dwarf etc) then you must choose your class. You can be a priest, rogue, shaman, paladin, mage, warrior, or hunter. Each gives you completely
different abilities, and it's best to play around for a bit to see which you prefer.
The race you have chosen to be determines where you will start the game. You will start in a small village, at level one, with basic armour, weapons, and skills. Your mission is to get from level 1 to level 80, and you do this buy completing missions that people give you, and killing enemies.
To help you on your way you can also learn crafts, such as mining or skinning, these can be used to earn yourself money (Gold) and to create new armour for yourself.
You are playing in a world, and it feels like it. You fly from place to place, or take boats to different islands. The game is massive, and there is always new stuff to explore.
There is more to do that just quest and kill, once you get to higher levels you can enter the battlegrounds where you play against horde or alliance, you can do instances, where your group play in an area that is a separate server and can pick up some really good items.
There you go...you're ready to run around and kill stuff up until level 80. Enjoy.
