Questions Within the Questing: Finding Purpose in the “Strange”
0Half of any role-playing game is tracking down quest items to complete errands and assignments that allow us to progress further into the game, and in most open-world games it is common to explore areas that contain quest items for quests that we haven’t yet received. What appears to be a random piece of junk may actually be a critical component used to craft an incredibly powerful piece of armor, but it won’t reveal itself as such until we run into the armorer who is capable of forging such a masterpiece. The value of many of these items may not be apparent in my backpack or fetch a high price at the local shop, but they tend to reveal their true value when the story calls for them. And in most video games, if the developer took the time to not only create the item but also place it in a specific location within the narrative, there is a good chance that they did this for a very specific and important reason.
Join us as we discuss the STRANGEST things we have found uses for in video games and explore the truth that much like our video game adventures, what we are given by the “Creator” doesn’t always make sense until it is time for it to be used in our quest… and then we will find that even these odd and seemingly random items and occurrences were actually critical and required elements for us to be able to move forward. If things aren’t making a lot of sense in our lives right now, it might be because we are expecting these quest items to be functional right NOW, when their intended and designed usage is a bit farther on down the road. He may provide us keys for doors that are meant to be unlocked at another time or develop skills within us for a journey we aren’t even aware that we should be preparing for!
