This game was there for me when nobody else was, just logging in, do some chores in game to distract myself, get happy at the little progress I made at the game because slowly but surely I was achieving my goals.
Just logging in at times and seeing someone in Gchat go "hey, how's it going x?" Or "just in time X I need someone to help me"
This game represents a safe space in my mind and house, just seeing images of the map and reliving memories in my mind is enough to change my mood.
Many people won't understand but I sure am happy for it
i only started playing wow like 6 months ago so i have alot to catch up on. For like two years ive been on this whole workout and health craze where everything in my life was dictated to perfectly be optimal for my future as a pro athlete and in that time i havent enjoyed video games for a while. I grew up on video games more than anything and leaving that worrysome part of my life and bringing in wow has been amazing. Its the first time ive genuinely felt excitement to play a game since i was 12 on a christmas morning. The thought of wow and learning about its lore brings so much excitement to me
