There’s nothing more exhilarating than emerging victorious from a fight that you thought you would lose. The other day I was mindlessly going through a pretty basic mission in Dungeons and Dragons Online when suddenly one massive, gigantic slime suddenly burst into dozens and dozens of them. I was swarmed while the dungeon alert counter climbed all the way up to red (which is Bad) and frantically ran backward while shooting as fast as my mouse button allowed.
Yes, I did survive. Yes, I am here to tell my brave story. Yes, a Kickstarter is launching soon to fund a statue in my honor.
