WOW is an mmorpg made by blizzard entertainment with many different races, and classes to choose from, while also choosing which faction your on the alliance or horde, the main object of the game is to run around doing different quests and leveling up (like almost all rpgs). There are also 4 different server types to choose from PVP (player vs Player) where open combat among players is more common and promoted, or PVE (player vs environment), where the gameplay is more focused on defeating monsters and completing quests.In these to types the player has an option to "flag" themself making it so other players can attack them. RP (Roleplaying) and RP-PVP (roleplay-PvP) variants of both primary realm types are also available. The game has a subscription fee that you can choose to pay every month, 3 months, or 6 months, but there is also a starter edition that allows you to play the game until level 20 minus some of the abilities you have while playing the full game. There are also three expansions already out Burning Crusade, Wrath of the lich king ,and cataclysm, and there is also a fourth expansion being made.

List of races:
Alliance: Worgen (requires cataclysm expansion), Draenei (requires burning crusade expansion), Dwarf, Gnome, Human, Night Elf

Horde: Goblin (requires cataclysm expansion), Blood Elf (requires burning crusade expansion), Orc, Tauren, Troll, Forsaken (undead)

Classes: Druid, Hunter, Mage, Paladin, Priest, Rogue, Shaman, Warlock, Warrior
