Posted November 5, 2014 @ ^ video There's definitely some merit in this notion. I've noticed that on occasions that I've been emotionally reserved, I can choose to involve myself, and the emotional reward is majorly heightened. Who screams on rollercoasters or fairground rides ? You might not be scared, I never am, but choosing to express yourself vocally - to be involved in the situation, enhances the experience even if it's only to laugh at yourself for behaving in such a ridiculous manner. And of course, being involved in a negative emotional situation, by the same mechanic, sucks you in and makes you feel stuff against your will. Forcing yourself to do what you hate to do is MASSIVELY draining. And being stuck in a situation where you have no choice but to do something can drain you to the point where you physically cannot force yourself to even move, let alone live up to expectations. This notion is to turn that mechanic to your advantage and force a positive reaction. Though this would appear to only be useful if you're not at the stage where 'I'm lying here, and no matter how much I coax myself or order myself, I can't move'. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 5, 2014 Things have been a bit rough again lately. These days it feels like I don't have the energy to do much of anything past dragging myself out of bed. Can't really get into/enjoy any thing no matter how much I try. Yet I don't feel as horrible either. I feel kind of apathetic towards everything instead of feeling down and depressed. Like there's no point in anything and I can't make myself care to do much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 20, 2016 Not to be rude but it's not really too cool pulling up a thread like this from 2014 when the player may very well be past this in his or her life. But I guess to each their own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 17, 2017 Maybe others in your alliance/village use teamspeak and you can speak with them while playing, gameplay can be more fun and disatracting this way, imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
