NPC's and MMOs in WOW

Most of the daily quest areas have been set up in such a way that it's pretty obvious the factions we are fighting for would be losing horribly if the adventurers stopped moving through. In fact, it appears that even with all the WOW gold- players’working day after day things are just barely being held together. Maybe that is why it takes so long for the factions like us; we just aren't effective when completing the small number of objectives.

 

Think about it. The Golden Lotus are fighting a war and taking heavy casualties. The heroes of Azeroth show up for twenty minutes, decimating Mogu all over the vale while fighting in the Alliance/Horde war. Then we come back and say "I'm bored with this, can I do something else adn where to buy WOW gold?"

 

I guess that is the price we pay for treating charisma as a dump stat. I just finished reading the book Mogworld, which is from the perspective of self-aware NPC's in a MMORPG. It has a rather confusing start, but once the twist is revealed it's rather engaging, not to mention hilarious.

 

Actually, no, you know going into the book that it's from the perspective of NPC's in a MMO. I think maybe perhaps I know what you're referring to, but I'd argue that another phrase more properly describes that particular sub-twist. The twist I was referring to is the one that makes it difficult in the beginning to translate what you're reading into what you know about NPC's and MMOs. I thought perhaps I was missing some meaningful reference to some other game or something, but gladly, no.

 

One of the cool things about Northrend to me was how so many npc's from the old world reappeared in new roles and handed out new quests whic could offer some WOW gold, etc. But there's one group of players who may just offer a little more of themselves to the daily dispensing crew. What really bothers me is wondering what the quest-givers who have us collect body parts of one creature or another DO with all those body parts. Somewhere in the barrens is a basement fully finished in nothing but zherva hooves.

 

Actually I was just ranting about the Golden Lotus yesterday. No, I don't feel bad for the quest givers and here's why: "So, I've been saving you guys from being tortured and killed for like weeks now. You don't even revere me yet?" "Meh." "And I've killed that giant stompy Behemoth probably a dozen times. He was stomping your dudes" "Look, that's nice, but imma need you to run down to that pond and dig up some worms for us.
