Hello,

I’m a mother, housewife & I’m also a guild leader of a great guild with lot’s of fun & friendly folks in it. I’ve also been disabled for quite some time now, the disability makes it extremely difficult for me walk or stand more than a few moments at a time. Due to my disability it’s very difficult for me to leave the house and I rarely do except to see my doctors. Since I’ve become disabled my husband and I have discovered a shared love of gaming. We began our foray into online gaming about a year after launch of Guild Wars and we loved it immensely, and had been very much anticipating the launch of GW2 since it was announced.

Yesterday was our 8th wedding anniversary. Since it’s difficult for me to leave the house, my husband surprised me with a day off from work (as well as with a few other nice surprises ). So I decided to take the day off from being guild leader. This means I didn’t log into mumble, where I pretty much hang out during the day, though I may be AFK sometimes and not actually playing the game.

Anyway we spent the day exploring Blazeridge Steppes discovering all the little nooks and crannies in the zone, we even did both the puzzles. And well it was just an amazing way to have a sense of exploring and wandering for somebody who can no longer do those things with the person she loves. I really want to say thank you to Arena Net for making such a wonderful world for me to explore and delve into and while it will never be the same as the hiking we used to enjoy so much, you have made it completely possible for me to forget about those things I can’t do any more for at least a little while because your world is so expansive, immersive and beautiful.

So thank you very much and keep up the good work

Me and my boyfriend are both gamers, but he doesn’t really like MMO’s…He’s more of a console gamer. xD! One day I will make him play some online game with me.

That’s really sweet. Congratulations on your anniversary!

Amongst the sea of complaints that always plague MMO forums it’s nice to hear stories about how gaming helps people once in a while

I’m in total agreement with Kana’s statement “Amongst the sea of complaints that always plague MMO forums it’s nice to hear stories about how gaming helps people once in a while”

That pretty much summed things up

I hope he was a chef and sent you a piece of chocolate cake. I imagine a little in-game picnic would have been fun.
