Man, I wish LL wasn't blocked at work, so hard to keep up on phone
Watched GoT last night. Pretty good episode, but a bit slow for the season start? I guess they were just catching up with last season and setting things up. I agree about butchering Loras tho.
I also watched Ep 1 of Daredevil. Dang, that was pretty good. Fantastic fight sequences too. I dunno if I want to binge the rest of it or play games though...

In a way I can't blame them, the world itself is not a pleasant place and when given the option of a mundane meaningless life vs being a hero in a virtual world with people who think the same, it's hard to fault them.
I'm genuinely curious to see what the governments will do when we hit this level of immersion. In theory it's great for staying in power, let the young folks play games they either won't vote or will only care about whoever lets them continue playing in a VR reality without problems. Ah the future is both interesting and frightening to think about.
You are not a hero in mmos your just a player. In skyrim your a hero and people stop playing that quickly. Also while I don't care much for politics I vote anyway.
Read your typical WoW quest. "Oh it's you! That badass adventurer! Hey can you help me?" You play the hero. Rather you act like it or not is up to you.
The magic of questing dies very quickly just because its VR does not mean your an anime character. The reason people play mmos for long periods is that they like endgame content or gaining loot. Neither really changes with WR unless they add life like sex and food which is not going to happen.
Making better screens and controlling your character with brain impulses is not really far in the future, taste and feel is exponential more complex.
I have no interest in Game of thrones for some reason. just seems too slow to me. haven't watched daredevil but I basically can't watch anything that streams online for some reason (this is an issue with me not my internet connection). also I'm kinda tired of superhero shows, even ones that are different.
also speaking of mmos anyone know if FFIV is any good?

Man, another shitty fucking day at work. Last minute fucking stat, still waiting for blood to arrive at lab. Fucking coworker was supposed to show up for afternoon and evening shift, doesn't fucking show up, forcing me to stay late 2 hours. Forcing me to miss another fucking BJJ class. What the fuck, seriously.

Forgive my ignorance, but what is BJJ?
I have speculation as to what it is, but I'd rather hear it from you.
