The thing is, I am becoming desperate for a REALLY good RPG. Until recently I've been very into strategy games such as Medeival II and FPSs like FEAR. But I don't there are going to be any excellent RPGs for single player.

What is the Wrath of the Lich King? Is that yet to be released?

I'd recommend just buying the Battlechest and using the free month that comes w/ the game. That way you're only down $40 if you don't like it and you have the addon if you do. I'm at about the 1 month mark and want to make it 70 at least.

That's a good idea.

Best RPG? Zelda!! :D

Zelda for the PC?

Ah...I remember the good old days playing Zelda: The Ocarina of Time on my Nintendo64.

Is Wrath of the Lich King an upcoming expansion pack? What happens when you choose your character, but then a expansion pack comes out with a new race/class you want to be?

Wrath of the Lich King is not released yet and it wont have new classes or races. Burning Crusade did have 2 new races which many players started playing them.

So, nothing happens. u can keep playing the older race or start a new one. Note that the classes (where the variety in gameplay comes in) among the races remain the same..

Actually Wrath of the Lich King will have a new class called the "Dark Knight" or something similar but that class will start at high level and requires u to have a high level character in the first place.

The game is about $15 a month, newest expansion pack is Burning Crusade. Even with the pack, you can't access the content until you are level 60.

RDX1 summed it up pretty well.

The BC Xpac contains content for level 58+ characters (as well as the Draenei and Blood Elf starting zone).

The real game starts at 70.

abulfares is right for the most part. WotLK is still in the works and no release date has been set.

WotLK will not introduce new races, but it will introduce the Death Knight class.

As for your question, What happens when you choose your character, but then a expansion pack comes out with a new race/class you want to be?, if you wish to start a new character you can. Nothing happens to your 'original' character, and your new character starts at level 1 (with the special exception of the Death Knight).

i am also interested in playing WoW.

i previously played guild wars when it first came out. specially for the reason of no "subscription fee" and also because of the PVP.

i wanted to ask before deciding to buy and play wow, about the PVP.

i hate PvE and i hate the idea of spending relentless hours doing stupid quests.

whats happens with WoW and pvp. how does the game play out with pvp and wow.

because in guildwars when you play PVP u go straight into fighting other parties or guild vs guild or random party fights.

if someone could elaborate more please of the PVP side of wow, when you first begin etc.

ps: otherwise i might just wait for warhammer online

1: wow rocks (been playing since it came outwith only a 4 month break ending about 4 months ago)

2: get the battle chest, as stated, it has the expansion and a free month.

3: The expansion DOES have content for starters, aka the draeni and blood elf races, and their respective starting zones.

4: Wrath of the Lich King has no release date yet, though it is expected by christmas of this year. Still a long time away

5: It's not that expensive a subscription fee, considering a lot of people make it in an hour or less, it's pretty darn good for a month of playing

6: If you want the game for pvp, join a pvp server, fi you like roleplaying, join a roleplaying server, if you like pve, then join a pve server. You can of course still do battlegrounds which are pvp events in the pve game

7: Blizzard screws up, quite a bit actually, but a lot of it is over-hyped, a lot of people just like to complain about anything they can.

8: there's new content all the time, and it's been a thrill seeing all the changes come to pass over the years

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By Max Norris · Posted

      Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

      It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
