Somewhat of a farewell...
Hi everyone. This is a rather long post, so bear with me. But before I get to the main point, I’m going to tell you a little story.
2 years ago, I was listening to the radio, when I heard the DJ say Iron Maiden had a mobile game in the works. I remember being incredibly excited. Flash forward to summer of 2016. Iron Maiden: Legacy of the Beast was available to Maiden fans worldwide. I can’t recall downloading any other game that quickly. First impressions were fantastic. A solid RPG, built around the best damn heavy metal mascot ever, Eddie the Head. I felt like an ecstatic little kid. I vividly remember my first ever 5 star: Visions Eddie. I thought he was amazing. It was only until a short while after that I found out he was infamous for being cow-milking F’n VE on the forums. I was determined to cling to him. He reigned as my champion for what felt like ages. He was somewhat recently sacrificed, near the 1-year anniversary of the game.
Now, to the main point. It’s not something I imagined myself saying, but I’ve thought long and hard about it, and made a decision. I’m putting Scone-8461, my main account, the one I’ve been playing since launch, to rest. I’ve made some really stupid decisions as of recent, like sacrificing VHE, Mystic Eddie, the Birds, and Edward the Great. Couple that with the pattern this game’s been following (Events, buff/nerf updates with fuck all content, followed by more events), I put Scone-8461 out with a bang. I said goodbye to everything: my hard-earned and sentimental Eddies, Bastion, my Magus Chopper (which I nicknamed “Joel”), and my Clairvoyant. The only thing left is the Grim Reaper himself, or rather GRE, to symbolize the account’s “death”.
However, I’m not done playing. Last week, I decided that I needed to breathe some new life into my LOTB foray. I started up an alt account, Sc0n3-8222. My new adventure began. I’ve already earned Mystic Eddie and the Witch Doctor. I’ve already made some stupid decisions, like sacrificing Eddie, Wicker Man Eddie, and Soldier Eddie, but they didn’t go in vain. I’ll take my 2 5-stars. I’ve made steady progress through Underworld. I plan to nab GRE, play Night City/all new playable content, and do everything I did on Scone-8461, but with a new account. For any of my troopers on my old account, feel free drop me and/or add me on my new account.
TL;DR: I terminated my old account with a bang, and started over. Was it a stupid decision? Yes. Do I care? No.
