The Horde Faction in "World of Warcraft"

Video Transcript

"In this clip, we're going to talk about horde factions. Once you've installed the game, once you've downloaded the patches and expansions and things, once you've if for example you take the Burning Crusade expansion and you solved that and you're ready to play. And you've chosen your realm and you've chosen a realm because that's the same realm that the people you want to play with are on. What you want to do then is choose a faction. So what you'll do next is you'll go down here to create new character and then you'll be presented with options. If you look at this row over here, these are alliance characters. These are alliance races that you'll be able to play. But in this case, we want to talk about horde characters. Horde characters and alliance characters can't talk to each other in the game, the communication doesn't work, they fight each other, they don't get along, they use different cities. Horde cities for example like Ogremar and would not get along with a city like Ironforge which is an alliance city. So what we're going to do is we're going to talk about the different races that make up the horde faction. You have the orcs, you have the undead, you have the tauren you have trolls and you have blood elves. So what you want do is make sure that your faction is the same faction that the friends that you're going to play with are also playing. Because like I said earlier, if you're playing an orc, you won't be able to play with your friends if they're playing things like gnomes and draenei. So horde have certain advantages and disadvantages based on their race and their racial characteristics. But really the important thing to decide is whether you want to be a part of the horde faction or the alliance faction. And based on that, you would choose horde."
