  Anyone take part? I've personally never seen the appeal, but I'm interested to know if anyone here has.

  my old boss at gamestation once got me to buy a copy of WOW with some of the packs as well, i installed it, registered etc.... but never once actually played it!
  
  i think when i looked at the keyboard bindings and realised how massively complicated it seemed i got really put off

  See I think I just never got the appeal. I like games to have a beginning middle and end, otherwise it always feels like unfinished business. Plus because of the scope and size of the worlds and amoun of online players, I find the graphics usually suffer and the gameplay quickly turns to mind numbing grinding.

  those are good points, the thing that also put me off was the way you just have to grind your way up through levels, i hate games like that. i play games for fun, i dont play them to be forced to do a million and one tedious side quests, quite a few of which will probably be god awful escort missions, just to level up to get decent items etc....

  Never seen the appeal myself, i prefer games to have a story to play through,
  never had any urge to play WoW, but now everytime i see ads for it i just picture south park lol.
  I do quite like the rpg aspect in games like fallout, but don't see the point in playing a game like that, which are entirely online with no story you can play through on your own.

  i too always think of south park. as i mentioned, literally the only reason i even once owned a copy of wow was because my old boss was massively into it and pretty much forced me to buy a copy, it was only about a tenner so i din't mind.
  
  but even though i never played, we all started going down the pub a lot after work and strangely he didn't play as much WOW himself from then on.

  I'll play most types of games but MMORPG games like warcraft not for me, and as i think someone already mentioned before me on here,
  don't like the graphics style either, really cheap looking.

  South Park kinda nailed it I think.

  Even if i had any interest before, everytime i see anything warcraft it reminds me of south park and i can't take it seriously,
  they did get it very accurate lol.
