New Video Game

A customer testing Earthwar 3 at a video game store is eager to collect a weapon and start fighting zombies. The game looks convincing, but safe-house staff Damien and Ethan repeatedly pull him into an argument about who deserves credit for their work. Skipping dialogue, walking away and lashing out only lead to more unwanted conversations. A commander and even a zombie become further obstacles as the promised action gives way to petty personal grievances.
