The end game consists of obtaining the most powerful gear possible, defeating the strongest bosses, and other content that would be hard to reach or complete when you are a lower leveled character. Completing the process of leveling takes a very long time (maxing out your character), but once you have, you move on to the end game stage. The process of leveling up your character and advancing any stats or quests is known as (unsurprisingly) leveling. As you explore the world, you'll gain power and level up in the process, eventually allowing you to reach other continents and worlds. In WoW, your character will start off as a member of the alliance or the horde, and be tasked with local problems to solve.
The game takes place in the fictional land of Azeroth primarily, which is where your character starts on, though you will also venture across Draenor, Outland, Xandros, Mardum and other locations as you explore the world around you. It is one of the oldest titles in its category, and is seen as having pioneered the MMO genre. World of Warcraft is an MMORPG developed by Blizzard Entertainment and published in late 2004.
