Playing video games (and their computer brethren) is one of our favorite things to do with our free time. But when you sign in online, you’d better be prepared to face off with a whole planet’s worth of other players. It can be tough, but also rewarding. And there’s nothing like having your buddies at your back when it gets really intense out there in cyberspace. Here’s how it feels to us:
Taking your game online can be a little scary. Things can get very competitive.
Choosing a handle to use online is easier for some than for others. Think wisely, the name you choose might stick with you for quite a while.
The way you design your character says a lot about the kind of person you are.
Need to distribute some experience points? Min-maxing strength over intelligence has its upsides, and its downsides.
When it comes time to get into battles, you’re going to need some serious coordination and expert tactics if you want to pull off a victory. Running out alone usually just won’t cut it.
Pro tip: never take your eyes off the mini-map.
We didn’t all start off as experts, so remember, it’s always nice to help a n00b in need.
Just when you thought you’d hit a wall, you level up! This calls for a little celebration.
And then your loved ones intervene… it’s time to come to dinner. No, seriously, dinner is ready. Now. Let’s GO!
But… you gotta play just one more game.
