This video makes WoW players look horrible. This isnt how anybody feels when there playing WoW? this video is stupid, but whatever my opinion.

[antronoid]

Your opinion is valid, although it isn't meant to represent every WoW player, just my own story, I didn't make this film to have any negative viewpoint against WoW players, and also due to the way I had to edit the video for university purposes, I had to cut out some aspects of the video that maybe might have changed the viewpoint.

Out of interest, how do you feel when people are playing WoW?

[Rickard Lundö]

[antronoid]

[lilnixy]

What an amazing film. It's a shame that sluts like that Norwegian girl exist on this planet.

Dude, there was no need to start bagging him. He's not trying to insult people, just trying to give his opinion.

[GAMES4Chris]

zoned out into the game i guess so not really realizing whats going on in there life, but i don't think anybody really gets this feeling were there ruining there life, WoW is an amazing source of education and loads of people to socialize with. All my friends play WoW and if I did not play WoW i would just be some loner. But to answer your question properly, i feel when people are playing WoW they are having fun, Because why play the game if its boring.

Good film, although this promotes the horrid stereotype that "World of Warcraft is an addiction." When in reality, you can be addicted to anything. Its just the people who are weak enough to become addicted to a video game, are in the minority, and they speak out to the public more. Nearly half my friends frequent the game, many of them are even Gladiators in PvP! We are not addicted, we go out all the time, play on the school's football team, and live life. Everything in moderation...

[Jessy Davidson]

This is a truly inspiring video.

[Veronica Collins]

Cool man but how hard was it to quit wow?I'm considering it but I don't wanna break my friends heart seeing me go away like that forever and IDK if I should or not cause it's

effecting my grades too...

[MtZnoOpy]

You can say that, but then you won't be able to achieve what he has achieved in WoW... And im not saying that you should, I'm merely saying if you want what he had in WoW, you had to do as he did...

loool. i love this.
