    On the rare occasion I decide to do a group dungeon in ESO, I feel like I get a text from my husband “wanna go to the store.” Every. Time.

    And it’s hard to explain that I can’t just quit right now, it wouldn’t be fair to the nice little people in my PC.

          I tried tanking a few times. It’s hard ass work if you don’t have every single mob location memorized.

          Healings fun though. People actually thank you some times. But yeah I’m just DPS loser most of the time.

            A few times when I first started engaging in multiplayer stuff, I forgot to unequip the Ring of the Pale Order which prevents being healed. Oopsie daisie.

      I use to wonder the same thing with the GF when it came to Zelda. It always seemed she was in a part of the game she couldn’t pause.

      One day she showed me the game play and I couldn’t believe the amount of loading and dialog scenes that modern games sit through these days.

          Ha that I suspected but I’m the same way. I wanted to finish what I was in the middle of. Mind you there was no sleep mode on my Sega. At least with the emulators you can save state now.

    Every god damn time. Whether it’s sitting down to work on something or to play a game, the wife needs something. Hell… even my work is the same. It’s an easy job with random amounts of downtime but the moment I decide to start cleaning or just scroll lemmy on my phone suddenly everyone needs help.
