Cormac Kelly has released this charming short film about everyday people and their World of Warcraft avatars, interviewing a few players while their characters stroll around in the real world.
It’s only four minutes long, but in that four minutes you get to meet a number of Irish players who give honest, enjoyable stories of just why it is they play the game, and what it is they’re getting out of it.
Well worth a look if you’re like me and just write WoW players off as click-happy time-wasters.

I would have liked the narration to go a bit more in depth about their experiences/issues surrounding WoW though. As it stands it seems a lot was really just description.
