The Joy and Liberation of Customizing Your Avatar

Typically, I hate choosing--whether it's what restaurant to eat at or which song to play at a party. My indecisiveness stems from my irrational fear of choosing wrongly, or perhaps it's FOMO on other options. At the beginning of the pandemic, this hesitation ceased to exist: I swiftly chose the Horde. Once the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned against social activities like bar-hopping with friends or meeting strangers in person who I'd met online, I returned to playing World of Warcraft to pass the time. I had stopped playing seven years ago, apparently trading one vice for another.
