I’ve finally landed in to the world of blogging, that is to say I’m finally taking the plunge and carving a little spot out that I can call my own. I’m sure over the next couple of weeks, as I get used to the format of the site it will change, especially as I discover more fun things to do with it, so bare with me for the teething phase.
Also I have some specific plans for the site that hopefully in the next month or so you will start seeing it. I really hope that I can pull it off and more importantly see how involved the community can get and how it evolves.
So to start this ball rolling I thought I would throw out some random thoughts and see what comes of it …
After listening to ’shut up we are talking’ and the points regarding wow and raiding and how only a very small minority being able to do it, it got me thinking (lets hope i dont blow the light bulb).
I was wondering with the majority of the subscriber base are in Asia, and we all know how the Asians love to grind and how they play the game is inherintly different to those in the west, if it was a deliberate ploy by blizzard to load the high end content of the game towards grinding reputation, getting attuned to instances and generally placing a great deal of enficie on raiding an effort to satisfy there biggest user base the Asians …
Would be interesting to think that with Blizzard being such a well recognized game company in Asia through the Starcraft franchise, that Warcraft was actually designed for the Asian market and cleverly localized for the West. Also if you consider the min requirements to the run the game and the internet cafe culture of the East could this be the case ….
Who knows, but with the impending arrival of Sword of the New World the question we can ask are we ready for another import and will it be as big as a success as the Wow import we saw 2 years ago …
