Why We Play

Every single one of us, at one point or another, has wondered why we continue to spend countless amounts of time sitting infront of our computer screen playing World of Warcraft. The experience isn't always fun, and yet, through all of the nerfs, drama, and the ever so epic patch changes, we're all still here. Beyond the addiction of WoW and personal social pressures that keep us living in Azeroth, there is buried an answer to the question of why we play. I'd get into it here, but Ferraro, one of Alexstrasza's most loved Paladins, just did a pretty damn good job of explaining it in her blog's inaugural post. It's totally epic and I think she answers the question very well. Head over there and check it out. It's definitely worth the read.
