Duncan, a corrupter

Duncan sighed as the last quest of his game brought the final cutscene. A game purchased only a month ago, already finished. Like a good book, he couldn’t put it down and was already so sad to see the credits screen. He would need a distraction, something to help him move on from the fantasy world he had grown so attached to. As the credits continued to roll, he looked online for another game to ease into. Something, hopefully, that would last longer. Finding a few games and other things to buy, he clicked confirm and would just have to wait until his new world would arrive at his doorstep.

He didn’t have to wait long. After a day or two, he heard the doorbell ring, heralding the arrival of his new digital gifts. Grabbing the packages and ripping them open, he was hopeful about his new games. But, he set them to the side and looked, confused, at the other boxes mixed in with his purchases…ones he definitely did not remember adding to his cart.
