I've only ever played one MMO (ESO). I started playing in 2019, and for the first two years all I cared about was levelling crafting and learning furnishing recipes.

During that time I had no idea what I was doing in terms of combat. Combat was the least important thing to me. Then I made some friends, played for a few years, and a few weeks ago I got my first trial trifecta (Kyne's Aegis). A few weeks after that I got Sunspire hard mode as a portal runner. (Those Sunspire portals are HORRIBLE).

I can't describe exactly what I mean, but it's something to find you're actually not completely shit at something. When I was a child, my dad would plug in the ZX Spectrum for me. But in ESO, I've worked my arse off to be good. I started off not giving a shit about group content, then made some friends, found myself playing with them, made a trial build eventually, kicked some arse.

Is this ringing any bells with anyone? Any women gamers, I want to know your stories too. What made you go from "I'm playing games" to "HELL YEAH I'm playing games".

For me it's Fable 4. Of the Fable games, I actually only really played Fable II, and I played the crap out of that game, at least 8 full playthroughs. I remember back in the day their stupid multiplayer achievements, that's why I joined TA I think. And thus began my hatred of devs putting stupid multiplayer shit into single player RPGs. But it looks like that won't be an issue with the next proper Fable? We shall see.

My husband is really passionate about GoW, and I'm sure I'll be roped in at some point to help him get a co-op mission done. But oooohhh I'm looking forward to Fable most. What are you lasses most looking forward to?
