Yesterday I had the EMG test. Painful as planned, although I’ve been lucky as I could have get a 20cm needle in my muscles. The electric shocks kept me jumping from the chair, but anyway.
The little bastard nerve is quite self healing, probably was just stressed out due to god knows what. Over a few weeks it should get back as new, or so I hope. Also apparently there’s no need for surgery.
I’m close to getting back to normal. Hooray!!
It’s about time to tell you guys what’s currently happening to me.
You probably noticed I’ve not been around ingame much, and/or you are waiting for the DoR website to come up.
The fact which is refraining me from both atm is a personal injury: my ring & little left fingers are on a road to a (temporary) complete paralysis, which is obviously giving me a lot of troubles to even write this message.
I have the first diagnosis visit scheduled for 15th of December, and hopefully the surgery operation will come shortly after it.
Bear with me a little longer. It’s not like we’re missing epic raids anyway, right Blizz? 😉
I’m about to start the NGMP Foundation: No Games for Mindless People.
I’ve always liked video games, from developing them to enjoying playing them. I liked the stories, the development, the ideas behind the games themselves. Then suddenly, everything started to collapse.
I was fine with the idea of giving casual gamers a great chance. Say, new instances hard as hell, requiring attunements and stuff, then nerfed and removing attunement after some months. It wasn’t that nice for hardcore gamers (hay! don’t give cookies to casuals), but overally was acceptable.
WoW now has become so sad I almost don’t play it anymore. After the rush in buying it I found out raiding is pathetic, mostly trivial, which saddened me. A lot. Even though I was struggling with raiding back at the times, I was fine with it, because it was challenging. It was normal. It was supposed to be so. Then the nerf came, and I was like, “fine, there is new hard content up, it’s ok to give free cookies to the late comers”. Then the expansion comes.
I was expecting some challenges. I found out that while I was trying to improve myself to be a better player, “no wait they nerfed everything no need lulz”.
The saddest little game.
So, so, so, so saddened.
Yes, they nerfed it too. Hey, what do we need a master for? Let’s roll and follow a table. Dungeons & Dragons without a Dungeon Master. It’s like playing Chinese Checkers in two. Doable, but where’s the fun?
Nobody will ever say that games shouldn’t be more accesible to the public. But in these days, I’m finding out that working is more fun than actually playing. And I wish I was kidding. Money is making companies forget that no matter the player base, what keeps paying the bills are good games. Take out Crayon Physics Deluxe for example. It’s one of the most awaited games ever. I’m even planning to buy a couple copies to send as gift and play it on my 20″ Cintiq.
No matter what the companies are more and more pushing toward the “I haz no brainz plz feed me” market, which is pretty wide, and forgetting that they made some good money starting with the people they should mainly think about. Natural Born Gamers.
We all know how this is gonna end. With a lot of real gamers who would like to play a game and finish it in just more than a-hour-because-time-has-changed-people-has-no-time-so-I-want-it-easy-and-quick-omg-I-just-finished-it-lulz. So called hardcore gamers will hate even more casual gamers, because they basically stole them the fun. Repeated complainings have brought the game to such an easy level to be ridicoulus for the good ol’ gamers. Which is only natural, but still sick in the way it has been done.
I’d like to end this harshly with an italian sentence: “Ma perché non ve ne andate ‘m’pò a fanculo?” (Why don’t you just go fuck off?).
It should pretty much state clearly what’s on my mind as of now.
Some people have been wondering where did the name DeathIncarnate came out for me, so I thought that it was a good time to explain it up.
That nerdy gf of mine uses to roam around “zeh interwebs” looking for some random stuff. She eventually stepped inside the blog of a Holy Priest, read a funny article and made me read it too. Aside the fact it was actually funny, I’ve been sometimes dubbed DeathIncarnated ever since.
Group Questing
That means that while TankMaster is getting healed, so is FidoPet, OverzealousMage, and DeathIncarnate, the warlock that’s already killed five mobs, and is wondering what’s taking the rest of you so long.
[Source]. The part which made us laugh as hell, was the fact that just 2 days before we had to farm some Clefthooves, and so we did. While she was killing one mob I random DoTted 4-5 of them, and when she was finished killing her first I already started with the 6th. And, in addition, her brother who just stepped in called her useless, laughing at her DPS.
The “Egotistical Priest” has also forged another term. So if you want to know who the Holy Bowler is (Draenei Paladin actually), you should really read this. Or not. It’s not like I care either.
