Hrm, WoW is in its own genre. I can't say it affected my console games at all.
But, ah, too much WoW hate going around here! If you're wondering what the appeal of the game is, I'll say this much: it isn't the story. It's developing your character with friends, and interacting with others in the world. Grinding levels on your own is obviously going to be boring (if that's what anyone was doing). PvP in particular is my fav.
I don't know anyone who plays the game for the story. I don't see that as a problem, as games don't require stories anyway. We're not playing Final Fantasy, here!
