I'm in rehab for my drinking and there's some teetotal bullshit going on where there's no vidya allowed. All I have is this piece of shit ideapad 3 with an integrated graphics chip.I was chugging gta:sa at like 12fps with low graphics.All I can get working stable so far is Darkest Dungeon, OpenMW and ZDoom.Help me out /v/
>>726053974Well you have OpenMW, so what's the problem?
Slay the Spire on your phone.
>>726053974>I was chugginghehnice freudian slipanyway, rehab doesn't want you getting rid of your addiction that's why they don't permit any kind of mental stimulation they want you relapsing when you're out and coming backlike a cult
>>726054248Not OP but I don't agree with this post
>>726053974go get beaten by your dad again charlie boy
Emulate GBA, easily enough fun games to many months. Try PSX, not running gta sa sounds rough but try an older emulator maybe, that shit ran on anything
>>726053974Focus on your drinking anon, good luck
>>726053974lowspec gaymer
>>726053974put the laptop's specs into GPT and ask it
>>726054248Shit rehabs do.
>>726054248fuck yougood luck with rehab OPmaybe grab an old roguelike like ADOM or Nethack
That sucks. You should drink to deal with the boredom.
>>726053974Do you have a mouse? Headphones?Best bet would be to play some of the classics and other games where fps isn't a big deal.Alpha Centauri would work and is a solid top ten game, even today.FTL and Into the Breach would run fine, SNES/Genesis/DS/3DS emulators, Star Control 2, Age of Empires/Mythology would probably be fine too.
>>726053974For me it'd be a GBA emulator with Warioland 4 and Pokemon Crystal
>>726053974PSP and DS games
>>726059235i do have a pair of bluetooth earbuds and a cheap mouse.>>726060360how does that go with kb+m? any recs?
>>726054216this but dungeon crawl stone soup as well
>>726053974>I'm in rehab for my drinking and there's some teetotal bullshit going on where there's no vidya allowed.Work the program dude
>>726053974Age of empires 2BlitzkriegDeus ex
>>726053974Don't use OpenMW, instead use MWSE and get the "voices of vvarfenfell" mod, it gives every npc voiced diolouge using their actual npc voice
>>726054248This Their whole 'higher power' thing they do is to make you more likely to relapse and forgo personal responsibility
>>726062814It wouldn't be necessary if free will didn't exist. You will only be happy when you accept that you exist to be a slave.
>>726057841poorfag rehabs do. rehab facilities for wealthy people are exponentially more comfortable and effective compared to facilities covered by normie healthcare. normie rehabs are a disgrace and an insult to people seeking help
>>726063017Rich people are the only people who matter. Everyone else exists to be their slaves.
just dont drink lmao dont do drugs it's not hard just stop eat/drink/smoking whatever it is you do lol
>>726053974Drinking, porn, and masturbation are not addiction, you just bored because you dont have a productive hobby (no, vidya is not productive). Like try to write or draw or something, learn music, i dont know. You just lost gazillion of your goybucks for useless rehabilitation treatment that can be cured by a simple pencil and paper
>>726053974>how do I escape my escape with another escape when they won't let methis is how retarded you sound, and are right back on the track to drinking again
>>726063565>drinking is not an addictionDrinking is an addiction in its most literal meaning, you develop a physical dependency. 99% sure this is bait
>>726063729>>726063565>>726063287>>726062814>>726058084demons
Why not just watch youtube videos instead? Do you really need to play games?
>>726063287Unironically cold turkeying worked with my sugar consumption.
Terraria with the legacy version that was added last April, I think the 1.1 version of the game. Shouldn't be too heavy to run
Roller Coaster Tycoon. Best of luck in there, anon
I dont get it. Its extremely easy to NOT do something. Just don't do it. Its only hard to do things. For example its extremely easy to stop eating junk food just dont eat it. But its hard to go to the gym as that requires active effort. So just dont drink alcohol? Its like when I was a teen my mom said I was addicted to video games so I stopped playing them entirely for 3 years to show her I wasn’t addicted at all. How do people struggle with NOT doing things?????? This is extremely confusing to me. Not doing something requires zero effort.
>>726053974fistful of frags
>>726064394This is a certified dinner speculation post, the opposite of a breakfast status post. This post was brought to you by frontal lobe maxxing.
>>726064620I dont get it though. How is it hard to not do something? Like if you told me I had to go to the gym everyday Id be liek fuck that no way too much effort. But if you said ok dont eat any chocolate for a year id be like ok no problem. Not doing something is easy. Just dont do it. This is genuinely extremely confusing to me. Its like when they had me on pain pill for surgery I had and they told me they would be addictive and I'd have withdrawals and shit but I just stopped taking them when they ran out and I felt fine and didn’t feel like I had to have any more.
>>726063887They are in the same level of 'addiction' as porn and masturbation a.k.a. escapism in form of entertainment and recreation that people mistake as addiction. There's literally no substance in alcohol that could hook you up to that product for the rest of your life like drugs. Not trying to offend OP, in fact I try to help him (and his wallet) out of this stupid manmade gaslight by society that are keep mistaking escapism as an addiction
>>726065040Maybe you just have a very addiction-resistant personality, or are just mentally strong. For me, just gaming is already like a drug
>>726065493One of my friends back in high school told me I was too lazy to get addicted to anything so he may have been correct.
>>726053974openrct2
>>726065640That's not a terrible trait to have.
>>726053974try out a roguelike like tome4, caves of qud etcemulating gba / snes / ps1 isnt a bad idea eitherif that doesn't do it tryshows / manga / books
>>726065475What do you define as true addiction, and what separates alcoholism from other drug addictions? You could say it's the degree of severity, but where do you draw the line? I'm having a hard time understanding the separation between escapism and addiction. Isn't compulsively escaping to any activity and being unable to stop it, addiction? I will not comment on the rehabilitation issue as I don't know shit about rehab.
