Baby even when I'm dead and gone

When the night is calling
No matter who I become
You will always be my only one, my only one, my only one
When the night is calling

That reminds me of all the shenanigans we used to get up to in EQ.

One of my favorites was druids turning into trees and hiding the entrance to the high elf city.

Another was enchanters using the item illusion spell to turn themselves into elevator buttons so nobody could raise the lift in the wood elf city.

Also, using mind control in wow to make people jump in the lava in black rock mountain.

Old school Everquest PvP was awesome. There was a blind spell that made the other players computer screen go completely black, it even hid the UI.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
I spent my adolescence wanting to make video games so I went to college for a computer science degree. The math was very hard and I was not good at studying so I switched to an English degree (emphasis on Creative Writing) instead. After graduating with a BA I worked a series of poo poo jobs such as driving an ice delivery truck, working the graveyard shift at a gas station, and being the DJ/Emcee at a strip club. Then I took a temp job in a call center and six years later I’m part of the Project Management Office in their IT Department, in a role that I feel very well suited for and find very fulfilling.

The point is that everyone is the sum of their parts, and as long as you can learn something about an experience you’re growing yourself. And if you can then frame those experiences into positives then you’re better set than any paper degree will get you alone.

Although part of me is a little bit jealous of people who can play video games for 10+ hours a day. I’ve been getting like 1 Monster Hunter quest in a night lately, if I’m lucky.

putting a bunch toward dealing with some credit card debt kicking around from the holidays so I can finally feel like i'm not under it all the time and the rest in savings. was considering getting a VR setup but I don't think I would use it enough to justify dropping upwards of $1k on one.

So what's the game even called?

Yu-Gi-Oh Legacy of the Duelist: Link Evolution

Also as you go through the reverse duels the decks get competitive mean. This isnt a game where your opponent will sit around with a dead hand for most of their turns, Joey friggan Wheeler in the final battle with him is dropping multiple ritual cards like the bullshit Lord of Red out of his hand so enjoy as turn 1 he hits you for more than half your life and is able to counter any trap card you put down.

It’s actually NARCos, a demake of the classic arcade title that runs in a simulated operating system
