Assignment 2-1 Weekly Written Analysis 2


I am doing my week analysis on War of Warcraft 3 because I do play the game sometimes and I like how the game is set-up. The game feels like an extremely focused version of Star Craft; the nature of the battles is much more tactical, yet the racial variety is kept intact. (Price, T., & Nguyen, T., 2002) It has several different characters that you can choose from Druid, Hunters, Warriors and much more. They have several different weapons that you can buy or pick up by doing missions. I have to do different quest to rank up. One of the quests might be going and kill 4 dragons and bring back their skin for research. For bringing back the skin, the quest giver gives that person experience points and money or an item for doing the quest. The game has several quest that the game last longer than your average game. It is not always about the weapon, there is some times that you can cast spells or use magic to defeat an enemy. Sometimes I go to different dungeons, but I cannot go there alone. There are too many enemies in the dungeon for just my character to defeat, so I have to bring a group in with me that is about 5 total characters. Everybody has to use teamwork to defeat the enemies and decides who gets what. War of Warcraft 3 is a very fun and addictive game to play. The graphs are great and art is unreal. The map is just like another world on the computer. War of Warcraft has several different countries that you can take your character to get different quest or go to different dungeons. The game has mounts for your character after you hit level 30. The mounts help you move faster, 60%, while moving through towns. There are several different mounts that you can pick from like tiger, bears, and wolves. When you get to high levels like around 70, you can get fly mounts that can take you anywhere around the world on the internet. Game Rankings.com gave Warcraft 3 an A on their raking. There were 6 different games that were ranked from C-, being the lowest, to A-, being the highest. (Brown, K., 2003) The game has helped me more with computers; it has helped with downloading new software and find information on the internet. The game is great.
