I thought Darkon was going to be cool, but this looks even more interesting. It’s a documentary film about the ways, positive and negative, in which MMORPGs like World of Warcraft, Everquest and others have affected people’s lives. You’ve got the addict, the shut-in, the bloomer, the romantic, it looks like every popular kind of story associated with the genre is represented here, and the people look pretty real.
Sometimes I think I have a problem when I get deep into TF2 or FFXII for a weekend, but this is an entirely different lifestyle. I look forward to checking it out. Plus, you get to check out other people’s rigs and setups, which is always interesting.
Very interesting indeed. It’s infact undeniable that MMORPGs are getting more popular and also affect our life so much. There are even people who gave up on their day job to focus on gaming.
I wouldn’t take it seriously, being a subject in the film they greatly distorted, exaggerated, reedited and flat out lied about the story I provided them with. I was also promised that my name would be confidential Dan Bustard dannicus617@gmail.com myspace.com/4danielb
