WoW scares me because, while I've played a lot of fantasy RPG computer games, I'm fundamentally unco-ordinated and panic like whoa and dammit when forced to hit Significant Buttons in real time. I play Oblivion and suchlike with frequent recourse to pause and what have you, to give me time to think. This does not seem to go well with a multi-player scenario. Although I admit I do really enjoy hitting things with a dirty great sword.

WoW really scares me because I'm perfectly capable of investing three days of my life in Plants vs. Zombies without blinking, and that's hardly designed as an immersive or interactive experience. WoW has this large flashing light that says "Don't Go There."
