While the bulk of the game is made up of Player vs. Enemy (PvE), it has been reported that there are areas where players can engage in Player vs. Player (PvP) combat, I have yet to find one of these areas. Frankly as of right now, I am having too much fun to go looking for PvP combat areas. There has been plenty for me to do. Even thought I have only been fulfilling quests, they have been varied enough and have supporting background stories, that so far, they do not feel contrived. Looking back on my six hour play session yesterday, it did not feel like I was completing menial tasks. Granted, a lot of that has to do with the wonder of discovery that comes with any new game but somehow this just felt different. Perhaps it's because the game does not play as though it's a beta, but rather a finished game that has been on the market for several months already. While I am sure some things will change as they near the ship date, such as character adjustments usually called Nerfs, I am happy to see that Blizzard is so obsessively concerned with quality and the main reason we all play games: to have fun.
