wow
goldYou can only group and talk to players in
your own faction. You also can only view and befriend players in
your faction when using the in-game social commands. The intent is
to make you feel like a member of one enormous team, while at the
same time setting up the other faction as an enemy or, at best, a
rival. Thus, wow goldif you wish to play
with your friends, you will want to all join the same faction.
Other content, such as the zones you can visit and the quests you
can accomplish, are also organized by faction.
Some quests can only be completed by Horde
players and others can only be completed by Alliance players. Some
zones offer cities and interactive NPCs for one faction, but are
completely hostile to the other.
