When I first started playing I was somewhat timid and nervous around other deer.
I have developed this anxiety when playing many MMOS games.
In the first 10 minutes I was trying to avoid adult deer and running off into areas where no one
was because I thought since I'm a noob no one would want me around and whatnot.
Thinking "AHHH, I'm a new they are obviously veterans I better run and hide!"
This is a way of thinking and responding when starting a new online multiplayer game
because the abundance of bullies in online mass multiplayer games.

But it wasn't long when I began to learn the unique language and interaction in this game.
Other fawn and Older deer began to approach me. Inviting me to dance to run and bond through
the forest. I felt so care free so accepted and so relaxed. I have never been so immersed in any
online game except for maybe Guild Wars 2 and Shelter 2.

I am autistic and there aren't that many games out there that for relaxation and therapy.
I feel like I've finally found a game that can completely be therapeutic and give me happiness.
I say happiness because I truly felt joy while playing. I don't need goals, objectives or dangers
to keep me engaged in the game.
I just slip away into a Forest and become magical deer and I enjoy myself for just existing.

Thank you Auriea Harvey and Michaël Samyn for making this special and amazing piece of art.
There's nothing else like it out there and I hope it's here to stay for years to come.
