> Hmm, what should I do now?
Crimson
Oh....so nothing to worry about then....We can keep going......he'll be fine.
Player: Hmmmm...What do you think I should do now?
Player: Don't they talk to you?
CowBoy: Just fully delete your game, restart, and you won't have to deal with a doomed ass game is what I say you should do.
Player: I'm not sure if I can 100% do that.
Player: I mean don't they talk to you?
CowBoy: Who talks to who?
Player: The AIs.
CowBoy: No, not really? I mean they just act like that, they aren't really talking to you.
CowBoy: It's just a game. They aren't people, they're just little programs that act like it.
You stand staring at your friend's texts. Never had it crossed your mind that someone would just see them as a game, a program. You guess you didn't want to feel out of it. You wanted to feel like this was normal. You've been spending hours chatting to your computer.
You do wonder if maybe there are people who are going through the same thing; maybe your friend is just some special case and doesn't see them for what they really are. At the same time, you wonder if you should step away from the game.
Maybe if you just turned the computer off and back on the game would be normal. That's how you normally fixed problems with the computer after all.
You pause.
You called them problems.
Are they really a problem? They're more like people, right?
You pause again, thinking it over in your head once more.
You don't want to have to think about this but they might just be people, and yet, you find yourself wishing they weren't; if only because they were on your computer. You could spill a drink, or your computer could just crash and die for no reason, and they would die with it.
Player: I can't do that CowBoy.
Player: I might kill them. The AIs. They're sentient.
CowBoy: Really funny Player.
CowBoy: And while I was talking to you my friend over here ripped off my character's head and put it on some other dude's body in the middle of co-op.
CowBoy: The shit is wrong with all of my friends? God, I hate this game.
CowBoy: Look if you have questions you better hurry up cause I can't stay here for too long.
CowBoy: This asshat is grabbing some pot.
Player: Oh, do you really hate the game?
Player: Also where did you even get this game?
CowBoy: When did I ever say I didn't like the game? It's p cool why else would I give it to you for co-op later?
CowBoy: I was over exaggerating is all. Sorry if it sounded like I was honestly ragging on it.
CowBoy: The game is a lil weird though. I don't think the devs debugged the game correctly.
CowBoy: Really most people consider the bugs in this game to be apart of the game itself now just because it's so hard to not run into them constantly.
CowBoy: Also I got a four pack of this game for some of my other friends a month ago when it was on sale on their site. Gave it to a friend you know, two you don't, and you.
CowBoy: How did u forget this shit? I asked you if you wanted in or not.
Player: Oh, yeah right.
Player: You said something about being able to buff gods?
CowBoy: Oh ya it was so funny.
CowBoy: Ok see, the 1st gens gain more power if you use them a lot, get them to kill loads of stuff, and get them to like you.
CowBoy: So I pampered the shit out of Apollo.
CowBoy: It's not too hard to get Apollo to like you even though he acts like a snooty hardass, all I did was pamper him, and tell him he was the best and I would never ever leave or betray him.
Player: Then you betrayed him and made him in to a monster?
CowBoy: Yep.
CowBoy: That's the point of the challenge. It's also like the point of the game.
