So yeah, I was thinking about World of Warcraft, about why it's so successful, and I was also thinking about workplace exploitation, and how much it sucks when you get screwed over IRL.
And then I caught on a connection between the two, which I'll admit, really made me laugh.
In my experience, commendable traits like integrity don't amount for much in the real world. They really don't. Work hard, and use your initiative as much as you like, it doesn't matter. Any extra money you may make who you work for, the boys at the top will just pocket for themselves. Quietly.
World of Warcraft, on the other hand, is a different story. Demonstrate an eagerness to learn, show up when you say you're going to show up, and put in the time and effort towards improving your character, and you'll go places. You'll see things you've never seen before, do things you've never done before, and be decked out in gear you'd never have dreamed of owning.
World of Warcraft, my friends, is a better judge of character than the real world. You read it here first.
