What's the big deal?

Day One

After naming Marama and getting her as outfitted as I could with the entire family (baby girl included) watching on eager for me to just start playing already, Mom! Basically, I traipse around Teldrassil killing innocent, neutral animals who have no desire to harm me until I go after them. The kids watching me and trying to tell me every move to make is making me crazy! Finally, Clint kicks them out so I can learn how to play.

That's it? All I do is go attack innocent things that look like wolves or something? I have no idea why this game is so engaging. Okay, sure it let's out some aggression, but I cannot see why the male population of my home is so obsessed. I complete the little "kill all innocent animals who wish you no harm" quest.

At this point I feel a bit like the child song, "Little Bunny Foo-Foo, stomping through the forest, picking up the field mice and bopping them on the head." Fun, but why the so aggressive and obsessive?

Are they kidding me? An hour in, I have become lost 3 times, but finished my first quest. The graphics are awesome, but why the rage from the guys in my house playing?

This Mom has work to do, so I log out feeling quite proud of myself.

Which is great because my ass will totally be kicked the next time I play--or so I am told.
