World of Warcraft
World of Warcraft is a Massively-Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game created by Blizzard, based on their popular series of Warcraft real-time strategy games. It is the most popular MMO of all time, with millions of players spread across multiple servers, and makes Blizzard such a ridiculous amount of money that all the senior employees have swimming pools full of cash in their back gardens so they can LARP Scrooge McDuck. The gameplay is essentially a treadmill that makes people fatter.
It is often suggested that Wizards of the Coast was strongly influenced by World of Warcraft (and possibly other similar MMOs) when designing the 4th edition of Dungeons & Dragons - in particular the power-based combat system. Whether or not this is a good or bad thing depends on what you think about World of Warcraft. World of Warcraft is a pretty shitty game where the only fucking quest is to keep buying fucking expansions and all that gay shit just so you can say "Holy crap! My dragonshit guy just levelled up to level 1232423,999999999! OMG! I got a pizza sword!" Blizzard also makes a hobby out of stealing ideas from Games Workshop.
In summery, WoW is the single worst thing to happen to the world. Barring American Democracy, and the 2 Girls, 1 Cup video. What is 2 Girls, 1 Cup? GLAD YOU ASKED!
