Where Did World Of Warcraft Come From?

My opinion of the origins of Warcraft is that is has come from the people who play it. There are designers and staff that make it, but without the people who play it there was be no encouragements for new and improved versions. The creators of Warcraft have been extremely successful in the Marketing of the game. When a lot of games see the shelf with one cover Warcraft has been on the shelf with many new box covers and many new versions. The creators have done more than just make a games; they have also created a following, literally, another world.
 
For my personal desires I like games that never truly end, which is the case in World of Warcraft. There is never really an end since you can constantly improve yourself. There is always another way to better your character and always new battles to be fought. Just when you think "maybe I'm bored" another version comes out and you have an entirely new realm to explore.
 
The creators of World of Warcraft have also been very successful in the design of their game. In parts, it has stayed the same since the beginning, but it has also evolved through the gaming environmental and technological possibilities. I think it's a game that would be just as good if you played the first one than if you played the latest version with the best graphics and detail.
I think Simulation type games have been the most successful type of games on the market today and World of Warcraft is a perfect example of how these games are taken to the extreme.
Warcraft is now the type of game that people play for years, develops and perfects a method and strategies. They take these skills and spread them around the community to help others. Players can work together or they can work alone either on private games or on the internet where they are joined from people all over the world.
 
There are very few games that have reached such stardom as this game, and it has all come from the start of a game with "not so special" graphics, but was fun and addictive to play.
I'm not a game fanatic, but I love Warcraft and from what I have seen, read and simply when I go to the store I can't help to think about how it has now developed into a world wide sensation that people of all types and ages will play and enjoy.
 
Warcraft has come from its humble beginning as a 2-D adventure game to now, a highly advanced strategic game that has people addicted to its every move and every change. I can't see this game disappearing from the shelves for as long as there is a video game section in the computer store.
