The first hero's name was """" (four double quotes), player MaittakB with shypox, age 11 - My hero's name in computer role playing game was a combination of meaningless symbols like "****"

 It was when I was an elementary student that the first three episodes of Dragon Quest series, one of the most popular computer games in Japan. This series also made the genre of computer role playing popular, and many follower games were on market.

When I play Dragon Quest or other roll playing game, I had hard time with decide the name of the hero and other characters. Many computer role playing game prompt us to enter the name of player characters, and in some game we are advised to enter the player's own name for the hero, because players play the role of the hero.

I didn't want to enter my name, because before I play myself Dragon Quest, I saw a few classmates playing the game and the hero of them died so often. I didn't want to see the character with my name were killed so often.


Just a few days after I began this blog in September 2009, I didn't totally face up with the fact, and made that post.: From my past post The first day I played my favorite RPG "Dragon Something"

Another reason why I didn't want my own name for my hero was my shyness. I imagined my face blushed every time the hero was addressed by the name, that was may name.

Then, what can be alternatives? Unfortunately I lacked vocabulary of fictional characters, because I didn't like to read fiction, and most book I preferred to read was science books for children and picture books of automobiles and railroad cars.

This is why I named my first hero of Dragon Quest '""""' (four double quotes), because some symbols were allow to enter for the name.

I also feel that my mind is going to burst slowly with stresses from too many unreasonable things. One source of these stresses, I suppose, is the incompatibility with the standard way of socialization especially in business scenes and my characteristic sometimes described in the context of autism spectrum disorder. Even now, while I'm thinking that standard social skills in business scenes is worth learning, I scream to myself getting mad when I learn them.  Isn't just shaving my beards enough to be a salesperson? Am I going to be disadvantaged forever because the skin of my face and my head is too dry? This is one reason why I thought that I wanted to escape my country when I was 11 and 25. This made me learn some foreign language. However, I'm learning that overseas isn't so good as I dream about, especially as long as I go to public school. W...

It's my lack of confidence that is to be beaten

Autism, is it something to be removed? Or is it just another type of human being? I can't answer to this question. I, as you see, have language, and have a job. Although my struggles are real as well, I hear that there are a lot of cases of struggles many thousand times than mine. Ones who don't have language, or with serious behavioral problem. Although my behavioral problems, mainly social awkwardness, I can't answer the question whether autism is something that should be beaten. Instead, I can answer one question. I have to beat my lack of confidence through long struggles, if I want to succeed.
