Guild Wars 2

Grinding

For those of you that don’t know, grinding is a term used to describe the process of engaging in repetitive tasks during video games. Playing for hours on end until your cornea burns and eyelids as heavy as bags of flour, surprisingly doesn’t appeal to everyone.
You have truly surpassed being determined and become a grinder when you’ve all but milled away your graphics card, eyesight and finger tissue from the relentless clicking that you’re dejected soul can no longer control. Frankly put it, grinding is a socially expunging, ludicrous fixation of hilarious agony that is ridiculously made into an abbreviation known as ‘self-harm’ if you read slowly.

Irony

Isn’t it ironic that even with over six hundred and forty-two hours played of extreme friendless bloody fatigue that I find myself opening a mystery box as if I don’t already know what my future holds? The concept of obtaining this beautiful charm of pixelated glory was too much to handle for the teenage dropout, whose eyes glistened at the thought of the riches that would follow as he clicked the ‘buy’ button and watched his earnings flow down the Lions Arch Sewers.
Soon after feeling the initial burn of a painful regret, the empty character would stand in the Trader’s Forum with spiteful resent, glaring at what he regarded as a dull, brass toy in the hands of others. The thing that always made him curse, and this was the ironic bit, the item he longed for had the same drop rate as an unfortunate gut defect he had contracted since birth. Celiac, a 0.01 percent chance of getting it, with a one in a hundred ratio, his father had it, his grandad did, heck, even his kittening mothers grandma had it, now that’s irony.

I have written this purely out of boredom and fun and thought I’d share it with you guys. Feel free to comment below on what topic I should cover next.

Right now I just do Dailies to get my ascended amulet

I’m talking about a topic to cover where i can talk about it sarcastically, with humor. Something like perhaps jumping puzzles, legendary weapons etc.

We dont do sarcasm on the internet, sorry

Rizzy, this isn’t serious. Most gamer’s can relate to this and might find it funny. It was just for fun man, relax

Oh and, for the record. My armor looks alot better than the one on your post.

Im cool like a fool, brah.
its chill.

The only game I can ever truly remember grinding in was Elite: The Final Frontier. Or X2-The Threat.

Of course that game is grind, but I used to think like an hour had passed, and I’d look up at the window and the sun was rising.

Good times. lol

Haha, exactly. I mean the new Super Adventure Box i think is great and all but LOL, you need 250 stupid baubles for one bauble bubble, then need 50 + 1 g just to buy something decent, and there’s not even any armor. I was laughing with my mate yesterday about how they can change something fun into this painful grind for something that is completely worthless and achievable at any level.

You’re making that much more of a grind than it is. Check this out.

If you do zone 1, you get 2 bauble bubbles for beating the boss, once per day on each character.

I already picked up the backpack today and I barely spend any time in SAB compared to some anyway.

lol, i love gamer’s man. You shouldn’t have to run something more than 3 times (which is bad enough). To be honest there is a perfect path from zone 2 where you can use the shovel and literally get 1 per run. It took me and my mate 2 hours to get the weapon skin and after the first ever run I completely hated it and it crushed all sense of fun that it had to offer. Not having a go but it’s very stupid I think.

I’m celiac and I find this offensive.

I’m kittening celiac for kitten sake lmao
