So I was unable to play destiny yesterday since the internet at my hotel wasn't working.
While I couldn't play, I felt sad and upset that I couldn't do my bounties or the daily. I felt like I missed out.
After I got back home today and played destiny for a few hours, I felt really happy and satisfied.
Something bugs the shit out of me though, that I missed out on one day. The one day I haven't logged in to play since launch. Its really frustrating.
The world hasn't ended, nor has my life. I just feel like this game has taken the top position as my favorite pastime. Its usually some sort of video game anyway(or book, movie, TV, board game, music), its just interesting that a game designed to be so monotonous can leave me wanting to come back again and again.
I think they found out a way to inject crack into my eyeballs, just from looking at my TV screen.
Thoughts are welcome and thanks for reading my first post.
I appologize if this ends up in the wrong category.
Edit: You guys are awesome. Thanks for all the comments so far :)
Edit 2: Holy shit guys we're trending the top 10. Way to go addicts lol
Edit 3: When I created this post, it was mainly for my own need to address my connection to this game. I felt I needed a way to see how far down the rabbit hole I had gone, so to speak.
I welcome all comments regarding others personal attachments (or detachments) from all types, not just gaming. We are all capable of indulging too much in something we enjoy. The key is to not let it consume you and find help if you feel it might.
That's the hardest part for me. Identifying and admitting when I start to indulge too much.
The comments posted here since this began have allowed me to see that WE are not alone. WE are united.
I want to thank everyone for their support, their information, their stories and personal experiences. Its you guys that I'm addicted to. You guys make this game fun.
Now get the F out of here before I roll you all up and smoke you.

PhDs working for bungie trying to achieve this. They have succeeded with a formula that keeps people playing (thus buying dlcs etc)despite hardly any content or "emotional content" such as stories memorable characters etc.

Welcome to the world of MMORPGs

We're one the same pal. The only problem is, I travel a lot so I get that frustration a lot. And the incessant whining everytime I visit the forums doesn't help either.

Yeah, without a doubt more addictive than any game I've ever played before and I have so many more frustrations with Destiny than I've had with any other game before too :-P Add to that the fact I have 3 different characters and there goes my life.

Being addicted to a bland game like this is really, really sad. But welcome to the club.
