I've been playing WoW since it came out. I've never felt immersed in it. It's pretty, no doubt, but the static nature of the world (which changes only when I have to shell out another $40 or so for an expansion), breaks any true immersion it might otherwise have for me.

It's a fun game ... but it's not as immersive as a text-based environment, for my tastes.
