I have had a string of bad luck. Got kicked off my sports team cause my 1st year coach is a dick head, developed asthma, got really sick, got treated like shit by other people, I'm failing a class, there's no food at home because I have no money, my backpack got stuck in the wheel of my motorcycle and almost made me crash, my parents separated, I'm sick of taking medication, and I'm incredibly tired. I ask for on thing, the ability to relax, that's it. So I play a game that I bought with my very limited source of cash. I didn't care about all the complaining about the game that "bungie lied to us" and all the other bickerings. Even the crap that goes on in the crucible was okay. But then iron banner is released and I'm so excited because I remember it from the beta. I see all the lucrative items I could get if I just grind enough rep and since I don't play too much, that's a hassle. I try my hardest to get these items from a vendor not truly thinking they are of that much importance, but to feel like I earned something that I can enjoy and show off to other players. But apparently not when bungie decides to release an update that spontaneously adds problems to the game. It was the weekend before the end of iron banner and I couldn't even play because I was getting so many errors. Baboon, zebra, eel, elk, hell I had the whole animal kingdom in my console. And even though I got upset and tried and tried again there was still hope for me, that it would be fixed in time and I could finally grind out that last level of rep that I had already put so much effort into. The event said it went on until the 14th but did not include any other specifics about time zones, so I thought I had time, but I stayed up late anyways trying to ensure I was on time. Lo and behold right in the middle of entering a game I'm disconnected, and the iron banner symbol is gone. I think this cannot be, I stayed up just to finish this thing I had put so much effort into. But it is. Alas, some might think I'm caring too much about a game, but then again when your world is crumbling around you a game could be the only thing to hold onto.
