How I became a game bot developer: Part 1
Introduction
I’ve got a crazy story to tell you about how I became a freaking game bot developer. See, ever since I was a wee little gamer, I’ve been obsessed with the epic worlds that video game developers create. It’s like these games are these insane alternate realities that you can just get completely lost in, you know?
Anyway, one day I was playing this game called ArcheAge — it’s this massive multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) that’s basically a never-ending grindfest. I mean, you’ve gotta spend hours and hours just gathering resources and doing boring tasks if you wanna level up your character. And I was like, “Man, there’s gotta be a better way to do this.” That’s when it hit me — what if I could automate all this repetitive nonsense with a bot?
Now, at the time I was just a young pup with only a fraction of the knowledge I have now. This was over ten years ago. So I did some digging and that’s when I stumbled upon this game bot community called Bossland. These guys had already created bots for all sorts of popular games. I was like, “This is exactly what I’ve been looking for!”
And that, my friends, is where the real adventure began.
