40-45: you're stuck in the intense endgame grind and wish you could go back to just whacking shit with your sword.
Anybody know what a stealthy archer build is irl?
....sniper?
Thomas Crooks isn't exactly flourishing
Politician
Is there such a thing as a stealthy politician
It's more the idea that you're acting as a representative of your people while disregarding them entirely to get whatever you want.
I meant it as more as "Stealth archer build is the cheese option. Politicians cheese everything"
All good points. They are the champions of cheesing life. But it still lacks the solitary, unobserved, nature of the stealth archer.
In that case I would say shareholders.
Scam artist
Probably involves to much interaction to qualify but pretty warm
Tech worker probably
That's probably the closest. A work from home (or on the hoof) tech worker.
It really felt true to be, but I'm not entirely sure why
45-50: It starts to dawn on you that grinding is a waste of your time and life, and that it only makes the game makers richer and richer by keeping you bound to a game that you have grown to loathe. You also start to realize that the loot you have made from grinding is mostly worthless crap that you have no use for. Who cares for achievements and PvP medals when your back hurts, your eyesight is all shot to hell and you keep having these migraines?
I felt this way too viscerally.
Me too, especially recently. It's a feeling that had a direct role in the writing of this just the other day. So, fancy seeing exactly the same sentiment from so many other people, here and now!
I read your first sentence without knowing this was about gaming, and I was knowingly nodding my head because I thought you were talking about life and the corporate rat race
Porque no los dos?
Tfw you realise RPG mechanics is based on real life mechanics.
I can't be the only one who misread this as boeing and thought this was a weird analogy for boeing models.
This thread is just making me want to take 1 point in ranged weapons so i use a shotgun to reroll with another character.
I send hugs?
Being ultra-wealthy is like having “save game” whenever you need it.
If you screw up, you can always start again.
It usually comes from starting a New Game+
I just want to quit
i believe in you and i think it will get better for you
People love to grow deathly poisonous plants, like foxglove (digitalis) and castor (ricin), as ornamentals. It can be very illegal to refine them into concentrated poison, but that hardly matters if you're dead.
I'll be 36 later this year, and I'll be damned if I don't keep swinging my sword for the rest of me days!
40 is when swinging a sword makes your back hurt
Finding out you are trans and respeccing to a different class and all of sudden your build comes together so much better.
