The other night I was running a PUG in World of Warcraft (I’m a masochist, what can I say?), and I ended up in a group with another Druid who wouldn’t stop talking about his class. He kept telling us all about his amazing abilities, as if we had never heard or conceived of such wonders before. It was like wandering into a TED talk with monsters.
But I can understand this impulse to share details, skills, and abilities about a class you really, truly love. You want others to be as excited as you are, and so you get verbally enthusiastic about your profession. You become, in essence, a class crusader.
Is this you? Have you ever done this? Were you that Druid in my group, and if so, do you have a PowerPoint presentation that you could share?
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!
