The World of Warcraft is an immensely popular massive multiplayer online game. Gamers play the game for its epic gameplay elements. The common topic concerning the World of Warcraft though is Nihilism, which means nothingness and pointlessness, whereby gamers who play the game are doing it for a lost cause. These gamers may think that life and reality is pointless, play the game to give themselves a virtual purpose, realize that the game is pointless as well, but continue playing anyway because they feel fulfilled with a sense of satisfaction. Because the characters in the game are played by real players, the personalities of everyone are similar to reality. Even attributes such as racism, politics, and morality come into play in building an alternate universe. In truth, there is no war in Warcraft, but the game elements make the player believe there is. Although the World of Warcraft is a virtual universe which doesn’t reward the player in reality, it has become a popular game as an escape from the sad reality. It is up to the player to decide whether to devote to his/her real life or his/her virtual life.
