Heather Papps: hello friend

i bet it feels like a first kiss and winning a game at the same time

but also it feels differently depending on where you put the upgrades, like when you level up your hp you can feel your blood pumping for a moment, or when your intelligence increases you notice your thought processes speeding up.

what do you think levelling up feels like?

Heather Papps: hello friend

when you level your HP you start noticing butterflies more and eventually you unlock the skeleton outfit (+5 against holy damage)

pardon my french, but it has to feel like taking a gigantic loving poo poo & realizing you can immediately run faster, jump higher, think better

It feels like a slightly larger version of you is inside your skin trying to get out.

Sherbert Hoover: Working hard, thank you!

games should make players get fat for a while and lose some levels, then have to level up again but their max level keeps decreasing as they age

Everquest sucked because not only could you lose a level but you also had to endure "hell levels" which is where you need 3 and 4 times as much exp as you *DING!* oh, hey I levelled up welp, time to see what new Bard songs I got!

looks like you have a lot of "leveling up" to do when it comes to street smarts

Heather Papps: hello friend

the feeling of levelling up is the opposite of the feeling of googling "levelling up" to make sure you spell it right and finding out it isn't aesthetically pleasing

When I level up, there's a brief fanfare. I also used to hear a fanfare when I got an extra life, but in the past few years I hear ominous strings instead.

putting yet another skill point in the sleep stat, despite it being horribly undertuned at this point.

That feeling of your brain squishing into the back of your skull when you hit the really good stuff.

You know the sound your sword makes when you draw it from your scabbard, and it slides out and slices through your opponent's neck, severing it in one motion while sending forth a spray of scarlet mortality?

It's nothing like that, it's more like the pleasantly overstuffed feeling you get when you eat too much lembas under the leaves of Lothlorien in the sunlight.

Ideally leveling up shouldn't make you want to share a cigarette with the boss monster you just beat the poo poo out of before taking a long nap

I feels kind of like what your birthday used to feel like before you hit [redacted] and discovered that birthdays no longer gave you any new status or privileges and that aging another year no longer left you stronger or smarter than you were before, quite the opposite in fact
