Comic #903: Minesweeper (Patreon)

I actually had a completely different comic idea planned for today, but a new idea came to me while I was playing a completely different game. The original idea I will probably use next week.

While I was playing Diablo 4 I noticed several players failing a particular mechanic. I was quietly judging them and then it occured to me that I was literally in their shoes a few days ago when I had no idea how the mechanics worked. I knew I had to put Keydar in those shoes.

Now that the comic is finished, I kind of wish I added a couple more panels in the middle, where Keydar could have really laid it on thick about how it pays to be patient and empathetic towards other learning players. I feel like it would have given the punchline more impact. However it would have also cluttered up the comic a bit with extra exposition and dialogue.

You can be the judge.
