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
WoW, GW1, StarCraft and all the music back then helped me so much as a kid from a broken home. Keeping me out of trouble till I was a late teen but still giving me escapism.
“So here’s your holiday, I hope you enjoyed this time, you gave it all away, IT WAS MINE! So when your dead and gone, will you remember this night, twenty years now lost. It’s not right.”
