11 February, 2005. Paris.
World of Warcraft released in Europe.
However, what did you do / play before WoW got released? Where you even playing games? If not - what then? And if yes, which? Thats the question!
For me I was generally playing shooters. Counterstrike was an example, I clearly remember being called "bunnyhopper" in other shooters, referring to CS since lots of people used to do that (and you get a hard time trying to shoot that person down while he's hopping). I was playing MMORPG's back then too, being a big fan of RPG games so it seemed quite obvious that I would be playing MMORPG's. Though mostly the free ones, the one I played most of the time was Conquer Online. It was rubbish really.
At that time I did hear alot about WoW, read and saw lots of reviews upon release, but I just couldn't be bothered with it (and didn't want to!) as I couldn't actually pay a monthly fee back then, so I didn't want to get excited about something I wouldn't be playing anyway. It was a bit annoying since it looked so awesome, but I just continued with other stuff.
And today, it hasn't changed too much. Still playing shooters, but less, and more singleplayer shooters (I've been playing HL2-EP2 alot lately). And ofcourse switched the "free MMORPG's" for WoW!
So yes, what did you do before WoW?
Aliâs cackles maniacally at you.
