WoW Preview

A preview of Blizzard’s upcoming MMORPG, World of Warcraft, has been put together over at GameSpy. The preview is based upon a demo that was shown at Vivendi’s international press event, and includes quite a bit of new information. Here’s a snippet:


    During the demo, what we found most interesting about the game was how easy it was to get into. We all know from games like Diablo and Diablo II, Blizzard knows how to create an “intuitive interface.” Remember the first time you played EverQuest? Or what about Dark Age of Camelot? It felt like you needed a graduate degree to play the game. “Again, we wanted to make World of Warcraft accessible to everyone,” says Dabiri, “as you can see here, our icons will change according to what you point to. When you want to engage an enemy, the icon will change to a combat one. When you’re able to loot the body, the icon will change once again. And much like Diablo, players will be able to customize their character in the inventory screen. If you get a piece of armor, just drag it over in the inventory screen and you’re character will be seen wearing it in the game. The same holds true for boots, gloves, helmets, etc.”
