Are you game enough?
Howdy to you folks that have nothing better to do than to read my rantings. Since you are reading this then I can safely assume that you are bored and want to find something interesting to read here? Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm also looking for that something interesting to do/read/play for the past 3 days already, so you won't find interesting stuff here. So BUZZ OFF already!
Still here ah? I guess you must be more bored than I thought, so I guess I'll share something with you bah~ It's been quite a long time since I seriously played a game. Seriously play a game meaning being obsessed with the game until you can play til late into the night and the first thing you do when you wake up is to boot up your computer to carry on where you stopped earlier in the wee wee wee hours in the morning. Well, I did that for the past 2 days and I actually completed the 4 CD game in 2 days! After that, I really don't know whether I should be proud of it or be ashamed that I didn't spent as much time in my project.
Back to the main issue, at the last day of playing, meaning second day since I started playing, I was like rushing through the main plot to complete the game for the sake of completing the game. It was like there was some side plots or side quests there screaming for my attention but I just ignored them and wanted to get the game over with. I'm sure some of you may have shared my experience before and is saying, "Chey, no big deal mah. Like this also have to write out meh?". What I'm trying to say here is, what if this kind of attitude doesn't just apply to gaming, but to more important aspects of life?
For you all who THINK I'm going into another boring lecture on relationships then guess again. I'm going into a extremely boring lecture into life. ;P I'm sure you all are aware on the various stages of life, birth of an individual, adolescent years, years of mugging, teenage years, hitting the 20s, finding work, finding a partner, hitting 30s, having someone to carry on your (husband's) family name, raising your little devils, hitting 40s, worrying about your not-so-little devils, hitting 50s, bonding with your teenage/young adult devils, hitting 60s, hoping your not-so-young devils will take care of you, hitting 70s and finally a meeting with Mr Maker (aka meet your maker).
So, I have pretty much summarised everybody's life in this little paragraph and let's say this is a game, a game of life. So I have started to play this game for 20 over years (my age is confidential) already and at this point I am at the finding work/finding partner stage. Seeing the already drawn out path ahead of me, will I just complete the game blindly and as quickly as possible, ignoring the side plots, aka interesting events that may happen along the way, or will I have enough energy to jump into every single side quest just to check out whether its interesting anot?
I hope you are not lost yet, although I'm feeling abit lost myself. Honestly speaking, I wouldn't want to play this game merely for the sake of completing the game, but neither do I have the energy to complete every side quests there are. Hence the question of the day is, What is the meaning of life? Hah! Just joking there, the real question is, How game are you when it comes to living your life?
For me, I would hope that there are cheat codes available. How about you?
