It was difficult to pry myself away from World of Warcraft. It’s simply impossible for me to play the thing casually. It eventually came down to an all-or-nothing deal, and so I had to shelve the thing so that I could move on to other games. I could have done a ten-part comic series on the game, but there are limits to my self-indulgence. With uncharacteristic restraint, I’m packing a few of the unused ideas into a three part series, and letting the rest go.
This is my extended farewell to the game: Azeroth Travelogue, Part 1.
