wow
so i got a trial account for wow from my buddy. made a tauren druid and ran around a bit. it got a lot more fun after i discovered the armor vendor. heh. anywho. i'm reminded of a scene in clerks 2. the jerk clerk dishes hefty abuse on lord of the rings. it's about walking. four huge books about nothing but walking. anywho, that's kinda how i felt about wow. maybe later i can get the walk real fast spell. or maybe after i have a rich higher level toon i could just send a few gold pieces to my newbie so my newbie doesn't have to go kill a bunch of sheep to scrape together enough coppers to buy a full set of crappy armor. selling stuff baffled me a bit. dying was no big deal. mostly just a time penalty. you have to walk your spirit back to your corpse. wee, walking. all the colors are very primary. felt kinda weird. realistic scenes with cartoon colors. the monsters wandered the plains in big herds. you could walk up to one and start killing it and nothing else would notice. and last bash, i could customize my head. but nothing else. call me weird but i'd like to have the option of playing a short fat guy. or a stocky chick that doesn't have boobs out to here. sounds all bad huh? didn't get to try out the multi-player bit. which is so much fun that everything else could suck and it'd still be a great game.
