| | World of Warcraft Updated Hands-On Impressions - The Horde - PC News at GameSpot |
 | | As with other such offerings, World of Warcraft is a role-playing game that lets you both create and adventure as a single character in a persistent world while simultaneously allowing you to gain experience levels, treasure, and better weapons and armor by fighting monsters and completing quests. |
 | | As we've seen previously, World of Warcraft's character classes currently differentiate themselves from one another by relying--to different degrees--on different types of armor, weapons (like swords and axes), and magic spells (which are powered by magical energy, or "mana"). |
 | | Having played through the previous phase of the beta test with the Alliance races (humans, night elves, dwarves, and gnomes), we were surprised to see that much of the architecture in the Tirisfal Glades area was highly reminiscent of the Elwynn Forest area--though, admittedly, it was much more run-down. |
