World of Warcraft is the first MMOG in the (so far) four part Warcraft series, with previous Warcraft titles being RTS games.

In World of Warcraft, success in these endeavors yields rewards in the form of world of warcraft gold, items and experience.

It’s time that people just don’t want to invest into a game three years later.
