Pretty sweet RPG so far, only a couple of hours in. Haven't quite seen why so many people have been fapping like porn monkeys over it yet but have been told by plenty you are no-where near scratching the surface of it yet (which I can believe by the sheer size of it so far).
Chose to be a Dwarf in the end, a Warrior Dwraf with possibly the ugliest face ever. Kicks ass in battle, spent ages at the opening of Dragonmaw fighting the wolves and troggs to level up a bit. One thing that is decent is that everyone who I have come across so far has been pretty helpful and not even slightly c*ck faced.
Interface is sweet, the layout was easy enough to get to grips with after the initial "this is just one area, wtf?!". The environments make Lisa Riley's mu*f saddle looking like a toddler's paddling pool.
Controls are easy, the magic areas aren't even slightly geeky from what I have come across so far, just drag it onto the bar and click it when you need it. Haven't really bought much yet but that too seems simple enough to use and from what I gather it nails other MMORPG's for its less geeky approach. For a first time MMORPG'er' I have founs it fack easy to get into and nothing like what I expected (only in a good way though).
Visually it is sweet, the soundtrack is awesome, the presentation is spot on etc etc *fap fap*
Wish I didn't have work tomorrow but life's a b*tch!
In WoW, that's quite rare. And all the servers are down for a bit. Maintenance so new people can play it all nicely.
Installing it now... Just need to come up with a name.
Mr. Pimplefish is the current fav.
With each other...
So Horde (in general) outnumber Alliance? But I thought nerds were all "Ar, but I will be a Paladin and save the world and mary Princess Xanthia from the evil Chronos..."

PVP??
Is that not only Alliance vs. Horde?
Also, Night Elf Rogues are the most popular class, right? Or NE Rangers?
(They always are...)

Dunno, they haven't set a date when they will release them, although right now the Alterac Valley battleground is the only one getting showcased, presumably because Blizzard hasn't had time to create any more yet.
The next big update will introduce the Honour System, so I'm guessing that Battlegrounds will make an appearence soon after. Anyway [URL]http://www.wow-europe.com/en/pvp/battlegrounds.html[/URL]
Or I'll challenge you to a duel/pvp, and pwn your ass, cos my priest needs an ego boost :(

But, got past it thanks to a very friendly Night Elf, and now am cruising and in lurve with it even more.
