The leaving of a great old time friend. Problems, difficulties in real life, loosing interest in a once fun game.
It comes with the idea of the MMORPG, its a community of people, they are called guilds, clans, linkshells, groups. A close group of people that come on the game to play and have the comfort of others in times like these. To some its just people, for others its as close as family. When one leaves, we mourn, we may not know it but we do in some kind of way. The last meeting of a group of people to say goodbye to an old friend, who may never be seen again in the MMORPG world.
An MMORPG is just a game, for some like myself, its a lifestyle, a passion for gaming, its not the gaming that keeps us coming back, its the people in the game, known only through text. Its the family of another world. Even though we may not know what each other like, or even each other's real names. The people get along just as in the real world, they form friendships, we go through problems just as if it was the real world. Its a long lasting friendship, even when one breaks apart from the group, they are still remembered and hoped to come back one day. To see everyone again, to talk like they did once back then. MMORPG is an escape for me, its a world beyond the real where there are not as much worries.
I used to play this game, now one of my best friend's does, I'll say Ky, her character's name if anyone knows her. Don't know if she wants her real name released to the net. She told me one of her best friends had left, Rayik I think it was. I decided to write this for her, for her friend Rayik. To tell people what the MMORPG was really about.
