One of the main reasons that online games are always attractive, drawing countless gamers, lies in the creation of an “imaginary” world where we have the opportunity to express our true instincts, forgetting all the worries, pressures, and stresses of life. However, this doesn’t always bring about entirely positive experiences. In fact, the intense PK moments in games can sometimes push many people into a state of despair. A typical case is that of the female gamer below.
Recently, on the forum of the online game Reverse Water Cold – a well-known martial arts blockbuster in China, a female gamer surprised everyone by recounting her tragic story. As she shared, she had to quit gaming after enduring a lot of grievances that lasted over the past 3 months.
Specifically, this female gamer’s story unfolded while she was doing a regular quest when she unexpectedly saw another player “dying” on the road. Feeling compassionate, she resurrected that unfortunate character. However, no one expected that players from the opposing faction would accidentally witness this scene, and the female gamer suddenly became a target, marked for revenge. For three consecutive months, every time she left the city, this poor gamer was relentlessly PK’d by other players.
Complaining on the forum, the girl not only didn’t gain any benefits but also became an even more pursued target. Initially, she announced her retirement from gaming, but just half a month later, she “sneakily” logged back in. However, the results were not much better. As soon as she left the city, her character had to return to the city for recovery again. Extremely frustrated and annoyed, she officially declared her retirement.
Witnessing the story of this female gamer, many people felt sympathy for the excessive toxicity of that faction. But what can be done? The world of online games is like that, the strong beat the weak, and it is really hard to demand fairness.
