Believe it or not, not every single MMO gamer on the face of the planet has actually played World of Warcraft. There are still those who are just now checking into the 800-pound gorilla, such as today's One Shots contributor, Maldronnar! He writes in to give us his thoughts:
I think I was the last MMO fan on the planet to play World of Warcraft, but I picked the game up for $5 on Amazon over the holidays and recently started playing with some friends from my office. Having also played visually-impressive titles like Lord of the Rings Online and Aion, I was initially unimpressed by WoW's graphics. However, as I played, the game's art style, consistent look, and sprawling, detailed world grew on me. I can now say that I'm one of its millions of devoted fans. I was playing the other night and came across a beautiful, tranquil scene while travelling towards Silverpine Forest, just east of Berin's Peril. The moon was out and nobody was around, save for a single Alliance player who didn't see my Horde Paladin, Jurdra, as he rode by. As I looked up at the moon, my Core Hound Pup by my side, I decided to snap this picture for posterity. I call it, "A Boy and His Dog."

We just started (3 weeks) playing WoW and I'd have to agree with everything Maldronnar said. I played games with more impressive graphics, but WoW is just plain fun.
