Hi everyone :)

I just wanted to share this machinima with the people in here who also play world of warcraft ^^
It is recorded on my realm (Steamwheedle Cartel EU) and is in my opinion one of the best if not the best machinima I have ever come across.

Now that is impressive . . . I wonder if the person who made that studied psychology, or is a philosopher at heart because it's apparent he put a lot of "love," into that cinematic.

WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP!! ! You really think Warcraft can be a substitute for real life. You really think Genuine love and friendship can be communicated over the internet? Most people who play world of warcraft play it because their real lives suck. Does playing warcraft change that? NO!! ! You never hear of people who have good social skills or having lots of love in their lives playing the game 8 hours a day. Don't get me wrong I don't think the game is bad or the people playing it are bad, but the fact remains that your making World of Warcraft out to be something it's not.

Meh, I prefer Oxhorn.

I do play, in fact, I just got done working up my rogue's lockpicking, but I have no illusions. I'm still hiding from real life when I play. I don't play 8 hours a day, however. I live my life, learn and deal and do and so on, and then I say, "The kids are in bed, I need an hour of being someone else, somewhere else." I usually take 2, if I play. And I feel I'm over-doing it even then. But it sure is nice to get away mentally for a while.

But I have to agree grudgingly (because jim seems to have some aggression issues) that this video smacks of a little too much protesting, someone trying too hard to read importance into a game. I'm not saying there are no gains to be had, but nothing like this person is claiming. It's a diversion, something with more going on than City of Heroes.
