The Quarry
“The place where I really live is HeroSpace.Obviously I do live here; this is where my body and my brain are, where sleep happens and real food has to be consumed and bodily functions experienced and coped with, where other people and officialdom have to be encountered and managed and so on … But over the years that has all increasingly started to feel like the part of my existence that just has to be got through with the minimum of fuss so that I can get back to the really important part, which... is my life on-line, and especially my life in HeroSpace.It’s as though what we call reality is the boring motorway journey to the exciting place where you actually want to be – something to be borne, even suffered, so that you can get to the place where you can do the things you really want to do. Like going on holiday, in other words. Not that I’ve done that very much; I prefer staying at home.I even stay home in HeroSpace sometimes, wandering my castle in the Moonwrack mountains. But that quickly becomes boring and I head out to seek quests, battles, honour and treasure.I have played both Warhammer and World of Warcraft in my time, but HeroSpace is the game I’ve settled on, the one I find most satisfying and pleasurable.MoreLess
