The Daily Grind: Do you share any craft skills with your favorite MMO toon?

    
22

I’ve heard of folks out there who intentionally pick crafts in MMOs because they’re already experts at them – like the real-world politician who gets into EVE Online politics, or the lady who makes smithed gear for LARPers running a blacksmithy in a video game too.

But I am not one of these people.

It might be because most of my own real-life crafts talents don’t come up much in MMOs. Restoring furniture and painting and writing isn’t a skill in most MMOs! In fact, I was marveling the other day how some of my favorite MMOs crafts, like gardening and cooking, are things that I am… not even a little bit good at in real life. My cooking is merely average and I don’t like to do it, and I literally have fake plants in the pots on my porch because my thumb is not green. But I seek out games that have these things. I love the pretend version.

Do you share any craft skills with your favorite MMO toon?

Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
