Hello Realmers,
At age 25, he’s one of our most dedicated testers and started playing the game out of spite with a friend from Steam (thank you, Steam friend!). Say hello and meet Ukunavi. (And don’t forget that tomorrow starts a very cool event!)
Name, Nationality, and Age?
My name is Patrick. I’m Danish and I’m 25 years old.
What is your day job? Tell us about it.
I work in retail as a deputy manager. I’m responsible for the daily management of the place I work at.
My workday consists of dealing with customers, giving my colleagues the right tools to do their job the most optimal way, to always having items in stock to sell.
Any hidden talents or hobbies?
I don’t think I have any hidden talents or maybe I haven’t discovered them yet. I listen to a lot of music and I can listen to almost anything. I like music in the harder styles the most though. 140+ BPM and I’m good to go.
How and when did you start playing RotMG?
I started playing Realm of the Mad God back in early April 2012. An old Steam friend of mine told me that I must play this game. At first, I asked him wtf is this as I was mostly playing FPS games back then, so it was quite overwhelming going from Call of Duty and Counter-Strike graphics to the old RotMG Flash graphics with a set resolution that couldn’t be changed. I think I got to blue star after playing for a few months but then started playing other games because I lost interest in RotMG.
After seeing one of my friends get to red star I wanted to one-up him. I think that was partly the reason I started playing again to show my friend I was better.
What kept me hooked and a big reason I’ve played ever since is the new people I met within the game and started talking to.
