Yes, this game can easily become a hobby in and of itself. I liken it to the glory days of tabletop role-playing, when groups of friends would get together every weekend and play until the wee hours of the night. It's not like most games that you play for a few weeks, beat, and move on to something else.
I always found it funny that so many folks are reluctant to try it out, since they might end up enjoying it so much they might spend too much time on it. Heck, I love games that are so fun they're addicting. Isn't that what great gaming is all about?
I am so reluctant to try it because the setup/download patch procedure is just horrendous and then there is the fact that you really need to invest an awful lot of time in this game in order to enjoy it. I tend to be rather picky how I spend my time. It's just too steep a threshold for me and my time is too precious to waste on WOW :(
