I can honestly say that I've been asked why I play game.
And I normally just shrug and say, "I play game."
But that's a lie. Because when I'm in-game, I'm at home.
From the flames of Cataclysm, to the icy mountains of Tamrael,
anywhere I venture is a place I love and know.
My entire life, people preached that I could be
the captain of a ship.
A space ship.
THE space ship that saves humanity.
But when I told them that I wanted to be anything that I wanted to be,
they told me I need to get a grip on reality.
And to them, a grip on reality means the American dream.
Working 9 to 5 crammed up in a tiny cubicle,
having .5 kids,
a 9-story suburban house,
and a white picket fence.
I'd divorce once, and I'd have debt into my early nineties
because I took some bullshit university degree that's supposed to help me in the end.
This isn't reality!
This is just a dull game.
