When I first played World of Warcraft I hated it. I bought it on release back when I was still on 56K dial up internet. I was so excited when I got it and then I found out I needed to download a massive patch which took all night.

When I signed up for an account I lied to my parents and said I needed their credit card just for sign up, I didn't tell them there was a monthly fee.

I started as a Night Elf Druid and I just... didn't find the game that fun.

That all changed when I had two friends over and we started taking tuns playing the game. We all got hooked absolutely hooked on it and started timing each other so we could all get a go. One of those friends went on to almost fail high school from his WoW addiction. I used to go over to his house and we'd both use his dial up internet to play on our computers. I have no idea how it handled it.

After a month or so my parents realised there was a monthly fee and I had to stop playing. This was classic WoW so I don't think I was anywhere near level 60.

I came back every now and then when I could buy a game card rather than paying via credit card but I didn't really get into the game until partway into my second year of university.

I found a lump on my neck and ended up getting diagnosed with cancer. I had to take a year off uni to go through chemotherapy and I think playing WoW was something that really got me through things. It was during the Wrath of the Lich King expansion and I poured countless hours into the game.

I loved the world, the gameplay and the people I met. I don't think I've ever experienced the same thing in any other game.

This game holds a special place in my heart. I was in my first or second university when it came out and spent many late nights playing multiplayer in my dorm room with friends (including the occasional game of drinking Halo).

Me and my best friend invented all kinds of games in the multiplayer, from mongoose jousting to sword only, invisibility and super speed.

The campaign was also great fun in multiplayer and the extra challenges you could add with skulls really added to the replayability.

It's just good ol' fashion shooty bang bang fun, you can't go wrong with it.

This game feels like the culmination of everything Fromsoft have learned from the Dark Souls series. The gameplay feels smooth and the quality of life additions means it doesn't feel like you're fighting the game.

The world is beautiful, filled with interesting NPCS and fun to explore. The combat is challenging, rewarding and the variety of weapons and builds makes the game extremely replayable.

The bosses are some of the best in gaming and the satisfaction you feel when you beat one is hard to top.

Playing through and discussing ideas with my friends is an experience I don't really get from other games.
