A star is born
November 22nd, 2009 10:31 pmWell, not really. A star was buffed would be more technically accurate. In fact, it was just me.
My guide character (Bharani) was buffed this morning. Living up to her name, she already is causing troubles as not all of her game flags are working properly. The issue has been escalated to Sony and the nice person who takes care of guide accounts. My Senior has been doing this for 3 years and has never seen this issue before.
As part of my orientation, I learned about some former guides that died during their service. Due to their contributions, their guide characters have been immortalized in game and they reside in the special zone where only guides can visit. Two of the guides were killed by drunk drivers, another had a heart attack at a young age and one was a lady who become a doctor in an effort to cure her own disease - sadly passing in her 20's.
It's just a game ... but wow.
Because we were able to finish my orientation, my Senior was able to include me in a quest they were running. So my first day was a busy one! It was fun to watch things unfold and nice to be able to help just a wee bit.
