So basically I got a 10 day free trial for WoW and I've never played it so can someone tell me how I should enjoy this 10 days. I'm hoping I'll hate it since WoW just has to be gay I mean... it's stolen favorites like Testie away from bw? I've heard of DotA is that fun? If someone wants to suggest how I should start I'd appreciate it. I feel like a nubie on sc sending all 4 of my peons to the same patch all over again

You do realize that DotA is a custom game on Warcraft III not World of Warcraft.

You're already a newb, don't worry.
Edit: You were right about WoW being gay though, so I guess you're aight.

They arent at all, how about you just dont play it and say you hated it anyways.
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

i'm with Div on this one.
the 10 days you spend on WoW could be spend on more important things... like iccup.

don't worry mate. If you're worried about noobing on wow, you can't possibly for the first 50 levels. wow's difficulty curve is soooooo gentle, they practically hold your hand for you]

edit: once you hit the outlands, you gotta get good in a hurry but... 10day trial lol

I guess the answer is I'm a nub and I think it's likely I have an integrated chipset or w/e that is called, not sure though.

This is fate my friend. Or perhaps even Divine Will. Either way, someone up there likes you enough to stop you from playing WoW.

Well upon dl'ing and restarting my computer is in 800x600 mode (lol it's weird lookin) and WoW works. I've played for about 15 minutes and wow WoW wtf who would pay for that crap? I'm some warrior elf and i just got killed by an imp so i found my corpse but the view is like an aerial from up above and i can't see in front of myself very well nor can I figure out how to change it. I doubt i'm missing much though.

well you shouldn't really be seeing any imps within the first 15 minutes of the game anyways, so go back to where you started and grab quests from those people.

hold down left click to change camera angle

I got a free wow trial with SC

it really sucked, there were like no people talking or anything and it was just fetch quest after fetch quest I uninstalled it after 4 days

I've since discovered that in the trial there are a lot of things removed, LIKE TALKING

so I'd say it's not really fair to judge it on the trial

Well salv I'm not planning on getting into it, especially since it only lasts for 10 days and doesn't even have chat. I just wanted to see what all the hubub was about.

I disagree, I think the trial gives you a lot of freedom. You don't pay anything at all and you get all the races, classes and professions. Your limitations are semi-chat disabled (I am quite sure you can still speak it's just public chat that is disabled); your limited to ten gold, which is more then you'll need for the trial regardless; limited to level 20 and lastly, you cannot join a guild or party.

For being totally free and having everything else unlocked, it's a pretty good fucking deal.
