MMORPG

MMORPG stands for massively multiplayer online role-playing game. It is a type of video game where lots of players can play together in a fantasy world. In a MMORPG like World of Warcraft, all the players are in the same world, and they can all interact with each other. Every player creates and controls an individual character, called an avatar, and tries to complete quests, explore the world, and find special items. Each player's progress is tracked and stored, and it's possible to make friends and team up with other players from all over the world.
