Felicia Day, the writer and star of web series The Guild and Dr. Horrible’s Sing-a-long Blog, gives gamers a tutorial in an important life skill: meeting girls in World of Warcraft.
When she’s not filming her MMO-inspired web series The Guild, actress Felicia Day spends her days adventuring Azeroth searching for her true love, like most of us gamers do.
Well, she personally might not engage in that type of dating, but that doesn’t stop her from helping those guys who are spending time in World of Warcraft looking for a girl who can quest with the best.
When Asylum asked her for advice to give to men hunting for chicks online, she threw out the common cautionary flag, “Well, most of the female avatars in World of Warcraft are actually guys. So if you’re a guy looking to meet girls, you need to make sure to put the person you’re interested in through that vetting process.”
For the few women who are crazy enough to want to select a mate from the hordes of Horde members online, Day recommends, “Be prepared to fight guys off with a stick because there’s a lot more of them than there are female gamers.”
She advises everyone to “join a large guild and pair with other people to go on missions. Try and meet people who are on your same level.”
“Dudes, don’t try picking up digital chicks until you’ve done some decent workouts such as power-leveling, as no girl wants to be seen with a noob. Yeah, I hate to say that, but if you’re a noob you probably won’t get a second glance,” remarked Day. “Just like in real life when a guy drives a Ferrari, it might not be an automatic thumbs up, but it does catch the eye.”
