They want to show the 10 years since 2004 to now, even though I didn&#8217;t pop on &#8217;till late 2005.<br \/>\nSo, they&#8217;re going to show a behind the scenes first time ever look of the making of WoW, and what it takes to make sure people get on their servers with little issues. They even showed a glimpse of the server room. It even showed a screen of colored dots, indicating when someone logs on and what time. That is so cool.<br \/>\nAnother part of the video, what actually happens when Tuesday Maintenance hits.<\/p>\n<p>But the one thing they seem to be trying to get out to the public, that the World of Warcraft is more than &#8216;just a game&#8217;. Some people see it as a second home, where others have met new friends(RL friends) and even gotten married because of WoW. Hence why they titled this teaser; &#8220;Looking for Group&#8221;.<br \/>\nYou already know my answer to this, and it&#8217;s not at all positive. I don&#8217;t see WoW as a social event, I see it as a game. Nothing more. A device, to help keep me unbored.<br \/>\nLike Rexxar(and as a fellow Hunter), I work alone. And look what happened to him. He became champion of the Horde in Warcraft 3. His only friends were his pets.<\/p>\n<p>If only I could do more solo scenarios in WoD. Maybe in the future. Anyway, since Blizzard is throwing this mini-10th anniversary party during BlizzCon, on December 30th, will be a new post explaining how I came into WoW. As it will mark 9 years since I showed up. 9 years of enjoying the game my way.. as a soloer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blizzard released a video today, showing a sneak peak of what will be seen during this year&#8217;s BlizzCon.
