Hi, it's nice of you to read this story it's literally me just reliving my days back when games were a bit misdirected. For example some videos games back that had a one thought out line of a generic story, generic graphics, generic characters, Ect.

I'm only telling this story in a more fantasy based way, cause that's how I imagined myself during that time playing those types of videos games. Anyways, I won't ramble on about the pro's and con's.

I'll even give you guys a hint as to what the MC looks like.
