Every time there’s a big video game launch, MMORPG or otherwise, I see people joking about calling in sick or taking vacation time to play it. And I always wonder: Do you really? Or are you just teasing?
Maybe I’m boring, but I don’t think I’ve ever done it. Skipped some classes back in the day, maybe, but I don’t think I’ve skipped out on work. Then again, maybe that’s because I’m knee-deep in MMORPG stuff all day long anyway.
How about you? Do you ever take time off of work or school — legitimately or otherwise — to play MMOs? What was the last game that provoked you to do it? And most importantly, was it worth it?
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!
