The serious business of Gaming has not gone unnoticed by the global powerhouses like Microsoft. Gaming is one of the six massive investment areas that the tech giant is focusing on and it makes me laugh when individuals jab at my lifelong indulgence on this “not so niche” area of computing.
In the meantime, this weekend I took some time to level up my 3rd character in readiness for the next Global Event in The Division. It’s always fun starting from scratch and it gives me a good excuse to opt-out of real life. I was joined by a few friends along the way and avoided toxic or youth gamers.
In a way, I guess we re-invent ourselves in real life to suit the situation and our personal goals all the time.
