This was me. Sorry-- just having a little "incident." Next time I'll just put down my iphone and take a few deep breaths. |
Np, we gamers totally understand. Sometimes we nerd rage or rage quit too. |
I think that people like to seize upon adults retreating into a fantasy realm as something childish. But I agree with Freedman, that it's all a way to retreat from reality. Sudoku, crosswords, boggle- educational realm stuff is all so serious and adults. I personally, like pretending I am an elf that can kill a dragon with my crossbow. So much sexier to me than Etsy or Pinterest... I also think that they way that some people get into team sports, and get into their fantasy leagues, paint their faces, dress their babies in the team wear to indoctrinate them early... is equally about people's fantasies of power, wealth, athleticism, etc. Just sayin'... |
You could be my best friend. I completely agree with you, but I would only kill bad dragons. |
Alright, well maybe ME1 will bump Deus Ex out of the top of my game play que. Since there seems to be some DA fans out there I just gotta post this pic: |
So, there's this long passionate discussion on the private school forum about Landon complete with sock puppets, paid posters, Jeff the admin stepping in, opinions from many lawyers, etc. After days of this over the top nonsense, Someone posts ..."go back to your parents basement and play video games". I love how our hobby is an insult to the hoi polloi. Why not "play football" or "play bridge" as an insult? Gamers are generally pretty chill, don't understand the hate. |
NP here. My halfling rogue's qualifier for whether a dragon is good or bad and therefore needs to be exterminated is directly proportionate to the size of it's hoard. |

Heh. |
Another Skyrim player here. . .I also liked the Fable games and thought the second one was okay too. Is there a third one? Skyrim is by far the best of the Morrowind games. |
Sounds like my wife's style. I swear her D&D motto is "Loot the bodies!" And yes, she's looted mine on several occasions, thanks to my notorious luck with dice. |
Season 6 of the Guild launched today!

Sort of. I’m playing the ffvii remake. The only other game I’ve played is ffvii back in the day. So... I had about a two decade break.

I want the big Ms PAC Man machine for our house.
I wish they would bring a good Frogger game back. Gamer Moms Unite!!! |
