130s | like, I won the contest. |
133s | It's all hitting me right now |
135s | and this is gonna be so much fun. |
136s | My husband and I, we have been together for over 10 years |
139s | and I remember when we were still long distance |
141s | I was thinking of something |
143s | that I was already kind of playing, |
144s | so I was like, you have to try this game, |
146s | you can try it for free |
147s | and we can just start slaying demons together. |
149s | Bringing couples together I guess, |
150s | we've been there ever since. |
151s | So when I won and I had to start thinking of a tattoo, |
156s | immediately it occurred to me, the Treasure Goblin. |
159s | I feel like I can identify with |
161s | the Treasure Goblin in some ways. |
163s | He's laughing all the time. |
164s | He's silly and he's a material girl. |
166s | So that's kind of how I am too so. |
169s | (upbeat rock music) |
174s | - It feels amazing, I did not think I would win. |
178s | The decorations everywhere, I didn't expect that |
181s | and I thought it was gonna be just a regular tattoo shop. |
184s | That's pretty cool. |
186s | Gaming began with my grandpa. |
188s | We would go over there, my sister and I, |
191s | to get babysat. |
192s | He was into Diablo and then I got into it |
195s | and Cain became an important character |
199s | and I kind of related that character to my grandpa. |
203s | He's just a wizardly, sagely character. |
207s | I love Cain and I love the game, so it means a lot to me. |
212s | (upbeat rock music continues) |
214s | I'm glad it came to Seattle 'cause I got to participate. |
217s | I'm gonna be able to look back on this |
219s | and be reminded that there's a whole community of people |
223s | that love this game, this exact same way I do. |
