As the title says, "Should I play WoW?"

I'm probably going to play it around one or two hours a day if I get it. I have a MacBook with a GMA 950 built in VCard - would it even work for me?

Also, if I do decide to play what are the pros/cons of the game? What server should I play on? PvP or PvE (considering I will not be dumping time into it like whoah).

You say you would only play 1-2 hours a day.. But after a couple weeks it will be 2-5 hours a day.

Umm, its fun at lvl 70, kind of sucks leveling unless you have someone to level with.
I'd also suggest rolling on a PVP server, theres always better players on PVP servers, and its even easier to find groups for instances/raids on PVP servers than it is PVE.

#5 more like i wanna play but just to play with my teamates that play CS. Alot of my neighbors play it and I kinda wanna get into it. But at the same time I dont want to become one of those kids that played CS and then tryed WoW and got sucked into it :X. Just paying $12 a month tho will make me not wanna get it. Thats kinda ridiculous it should be like $7.

#7 No it shouldn't. It is the most successful game EVER, why would they charge $7 if 8 million + people are willing to pay twice that?

#7 You're complaining about the price? maybe you should get a job and quit gaming all together if you're complaining about paying $12 a month. You on Welfare or something?

$12 a month is nothing compared to what you can do in the game, not to mention it's unlimited access 24/7

If you have a job then drop the bigmac 3 times a month and you can afford the game.

No one has answered my question about whether I could actually play it on my computer. It is a MacBook with a vidcard of GMA 950 integrated (64 mb virtual memory).

#1, I started playin WoW not even two months ago, I never thought Id leave CS, and I havent. Forget the stupid idea of having to be loyal to this or that game, play what you want man. After a while in WoW, I just feel like shootin somebody, so I do, in CS. So I suggest buying the game and having what fun it has to offer(which is A LOT by the way).
