    45-50: It starts to dawn on you that grinding is a waste of your time and life, and that it only makes the game makers richer and richer by keeping you bound to a game that you have grown to loathe. You also start to realize that the loot you have made from grinding is mostly worthless crap that you have no use for. Who cares for achievements and PvP medals when your back hurts, your eyesight is all shot to hell and you keep having these migraines?

        Me too, especially recently. It’s a feeling that had a direct role in the writing of this just the other day. So, fancy seeing exactly the same sentiment from so many other people, here and now!

      I read your first sentence without knowing this was about gaming, and I was knowingly nodding my head because I thought you were talking about life and the corporate rat race
