So, we all know the classic game-addiction model which restricts when dopamine can be released by limiting play-time, such as clash of clans with their ridiculously long wait times, how this works is when we experience joy, dopamine gets released between neurons, when we get too much dopamine, we need more dopamine to stimulate ourselves to the same way.

For example, let's take a can of soda:

You drink a can of soda every day for a year, the first quarter you really like it, but nearing the end of the year it just isn't the same anymore- this is because the dopamine receptors have closed a little, allowing less dopamine to flow through and make you feel good , you now need more stimulation to reach the same effect (2 cans of soda)

After the 2nd year, the 2 sodas also start becoming dull, so you start drinking 3... untill you get diabetes that is.

This applies to games aswell, have you ever wondered why you are stabbing low-graphic shadows while call of duty is collecting dust? Why ganes are only fun for a month at best? It's not thr game thats boring, it's you that have over-stimulated your dopamine receptors by bombarding them with dopamine day and night for weeks, while on games like candy crush have things i like to call "restrictors" things that restrict how long you can play, restricting how much dopamine you recieve.

However, why doean't this happen in celtic heroes? I can level all day long, everyday and i'm still here, why aren't my dopamine receptors so overstimulated i'm disgusted by yhe game?

The social side of the game.
In a similar way i will never get tired of my best friend, i won't get tired of my best in-game friend.
If you are on my world or see my sig often, you will know i've beem this level for about half a year, why? Because i have found i'm not a "level and boss" type of player (although, i do like that and will hopefully return to that soon.) I'm a social player, i love the community, the players on my world, and being a moderator (although i admit i'm the worst one, and have alot to learn from my more senior mods, i love what i do.)

Thanks OTM for a great game, and thank you, the players, for enhancing the greatness.
