You ever notice how the people who get "addicted" to games don't really like games generally speaking? It used to be when I'd hear about a "video game addict" I picture real life Gregor with 20 consoles and 1,000 games completed hammering away on his Sega Saturn chasing that Sokyugurentai 1cc inbetween the dankest most obscure PC-98 titles, that he doesn't need translated because he dedicated his life to mastering the language of true videogames, Japanese. Imagine... Being so gamer you ruined your life... What level is this dude even on. Shit I want to meet him, what wise words would he have? Where should I start with the 3DO library, gamergod?

But its not. Its just some retard who got hooked the hottest dopamine skinnerbox of the week and makes bad decisions with his money/time. I'm not even sure how this happens. Half the time the game isn't even passable its just some mobile time waster.

I love games, more than most things, but even then I've pretty much had my fill after 2 or 3 hours. I wish I was addicted because then I'd at least have a character trait but instead I'm just bad at life and I play games instead of watch TV.

Hot blog cumin@ya.

Really doubt that any functional adult have more than 3 hours to waste on a game from Monday to Friday.
Weekends are guilt-free days if you have nothing else to do, though.
>>
What weirds me out is how some devs use the term "addictive" to describe their game. Like faggot, I don't WANT to be addicted, why are you presenting that as a good thing? Games are suppose to be fun, not life-consuming.

It's not even so much the feeling of guilt, it's that once you finally made the time to sit down and play a game you realize you aren't able to enjoy it because you're so damn exhausted. It feels easier to waste time on the internet. You become accustomed to looking forward to the game that the longing feels more enjoyable than actually playing the game.

vampire survivors is truly a game for women and tiny babies. the 2nd run I played in this game lasted like 40+ minutes and then I uninstalled it. how retarded and trash at games do you have to be to derive enjoyment out of something so passive?

"Addicted" is basically just slang for saying they're really into something.
>>736337096
Same here. They're usually trying to say "it's so fun you'll keep coming back for more!", and not "You'll develop a crippling dependency on our game and become unable to live without playing it unless you receive intense detox and therapy."
Quit taking shit so literally, srs.

This is how most games survie, look at Skyrim, you go around killing shit, no matter what the excuse you are given to go somewhere, your killing stuff, thats what most retards do while coming up with their own retarded excuses for why they play this "RPG" when theres no roleplaying to be had. The average person playing video games doesnt think about anything besides sittin down and doing a repetive task without disruption and thats it.

That's why it's called an addiction, same with alcohol or drugs there's no winning with that, you're not supposed to start playing gacha games otherwise you WILL get addictive because they're designed in a lap to fuck with your psychology

There are no thoughtful wine connoisseurs because there isn't as much difference between drinks as they pretend. Sure there's tasty booze of many kinds, but there are tasty fruit too and I don't see fruit sommeliers. It's all scam to inflate wine prices.

Vampire survivors is the shittiest game ever and I will never understand the appeal of playing it or what's in the brain of the people that say they enjoy playing it
>>
>>736336075
thats just normies to ya, even the games they play are "short-form". truly disappointing, its why i dont dicuss hobbies with my coworkers.

If you're exhausted on the weekend then you need to fix your diet and exercise more. You can get to bed at 9 or 10 on Friday night, wake up at 7 or 8 Saturday morning, get your regular tasks out of the way (cleaning, vacuuming, garden work, grocery shopping etc.) and then have time to play games from 1pm onwards. And if you get enogh shit done on Saturday then you have most of Sunday to play games.
