Why I love to play Warcraft
May 22nd, 2007
Somebody asked me why I, as an adult like to play a video game- Warcraft in particular. The answer to that is rather easy and I didn’t even skip a beat. My answer was “Ashbringer”. Huh, he replied?
Explaining Ashbringer will help you to understand how warcraft fits perfectly into this blog called “Heroic Dreams”.
Warcraft, if you are not familiar with it is a medieval style game. You can be a warlock, warrior, rogue, mage, dwarf, elf etc. etc. And of course there are the quests which I love so much and which make warcraft different. The game is loaded with all kinds of great quests where you have to accomplish things, solve riddles, overcome obstacles, and well do all kinds of things. Some quests are easy and some are downright near impossible. But there is one quest above all and it is the mysterious quest for the legendary sword called Ashbringer. This is the weapon above all weapons and the game only hints at it. There are little clues that pique your curiosity.
Ashbringer is the quest above all quests, it is the dream of heroes so can you see why I love warcraft? Sitting at home, on the computer you can feel just a little bit like Percival chasing after the holy grail.
Sideways about warcraft - It was out for quite a while and it never interested me. I thoughth it was just a vicious blood bath of pvp action. hence the name warcraft. But it isn’t. It’s an extraordinarily rich world full of things that will just amaze you. And if you don’t like pvp you never ever have to encounter it.
I’m so serious about my warcraft that I built my own virtual reality pod to play in. You can see the project on my other website here: The Warcraft Pod
