None. I was playing Conker and watching South Park. The rule was "If I hear any of this come out of your mouth, it's gone." Luckily I was around 12 and not a little shit and online play wasn't really a thing.

when I was in elementary school, the teachers told my parents video games were making me violent, so I was barred from playing anything more violent than minecraft
all the other boys in my class were playing halo reach and call of duty, so I was left out causing me to drift towards the tards that played pokemon and shit
I eventually got away from those tards after sneakily downloading steam on my mom's macbook and playing tf2 when she wasn't home
glad I didn't become a tendie, but it is depressing thinking of the alternate timeline where I got to experience halo at its peak with my classmates

my religious helicopter single mother banned me from playing all M rated games, some T rated game, and Pokemon until I was in high school. She also didn't let me use the internet through my entire childhood so I was an obnoxious little shit who would go over to friends' houses just to use their computers until I could get a job and buy a laptop. She also didn't let me engage with anything sexual and took away my Red Alert 3 pinup poster from my bedroom wall as well as my rei oppai mousepad.

Fine, you want more?

David Wallace didn't start writing fiction until college, and immediately went on to publish a book when he graduated.

Nabokov didn't write a single line of anything until he was in his late teens.

Thomas Pynchon changed from engineering to English in the middle of college and went on to be nominated for the Pulitzer prize.

Bram Stoker started writing at the age of 43 and didn't produce Dracula until he was 50.

Bukowski started writing at age 49.

I'm not gonna hear any more doom and gloom. I've given you enough examples.

I was only allowed to play stuff with an appropriate ESRB rating. I did get to play M games at friends houses some though, like WWE or Halo.

>>738033174
Allowed is a verb, it doesn't require "to play" in order to work since "to play" is assumed by the lack of allowance involving pokemon. It's a slightly more archaic way to use it since most people will include more in modern times but it's not incorrect.

>>738029329
I wasn't banned, per se, it was more like we were too poor for my parents to buy me things like pokemon cards and Gameboys. I had snes, and there weren't any real game restrictions. I had a small binder of some first gen pokemon cards that a friend gave to me, that was about it.

My religious family was a bit more lax involving these kinds of things. Basically my games had to promote good works if I was allowed to play them. For example:

>link from the Zelda series technically uses magic, but it's moreso a tool to help save the world from an evil bad guy. You could beat ganon to death with a fishing pole
>Harry Potter was off limits because they were just learning magic and summoning demons for the fun of it, the bad guy couldn't be beaten without magic

Essentially, if I was gonna play any kind of fantasy game, they wanted me to steer away from being a mage or wizard, and instead take up the reigns of a sword and shield wielding paladin.

They never specifically banned me from playing anything really but there was one time where my mom saw me playing Manhunt and saw me do one of those violent executions, she straight up took the CD out of the console and broke it in half and didn't let me play any games for the rest of the day. Now at the time I didn't really understand as a kid why she was so mad, but now that I'm older with that hindsight, I realized I get it. If I saw my kid playing something that messed up and violent I would be pretty pissed too but I wouldn't break the CD in half though that was too much, it was just one of those woman moment that my mom had.

>Bukowski started writing at age 49
are you fucking baiting? Ham and Rye, which is about his early life up to his early twenties, states multiple times that he began writing young. He didn't become FAMOUS until his late 40s, early 50s.

I'll even give you a worse one, John Fante, the man Bukowski called his "god", his main inspiration for writing and the man that made him fall in love with literature. The guy lived the most mediocre possible life as a writer, retired from publishing books and poems for most of his life, only writing movie screenplays, never being recognized for any of his work, and it took a then famous Bukowski, who was much younger than him, to go out of his way to promote his work for him in a attempt to resurrect his legacy.
It did work, and they're now both acclaimed writers worldwide, even to this day, but don't kid yourself, Bukowski was miserable and considered himself a failure for most of his life, whilst Fante gave up on literature and only came to be recognized when he was basically at his deathbed, blind from diabetes, and having to recite his writing out loud so his wife could write it down

they were both ignored and unremarkable for almost their whole lives, taking 2 to 3 generations of readers to start paying attention to them. How many others with similar stories just faded away, never to receive any recognition for the rest of history?

I went to a christian elementary school. Pokemon wasn't allowed on school grounds and some parents wouldn't have it in their house, because it was satanism.

I think it comes down to technical skill vs. creativity.
Playing musical instruments (if we're not talking about composing) is something that requires more technical skill.
There's technical skill involved in writing but I think people value creativity more in literature.

From my unscientific personal experience, when artists start to draw as kids they become technically skilled very early but lack creativity.
They copy the styles of artists they enjoy until they get older and develop their own sense of style, although many never get to that point and just draw anime fanart bullshit.

I'm not religious but that's unfathomably based. Did they play through the entire games before deciding whether to let you play them?

My dad would watch me play through several of the games. He wasn't too big into Final Fantasy because, and I'm quoting him here, "alot of the characters look like fags". However, he loved fight games like Aerofighters Assault and Ace Combat.

Come to think of it, I kinda take after him in his tastes in games.
>>
>>738030674
My mom and dad actually did a pretty decent job of picking games I'd like before I was able to start earning enough money through chores and small summer jobs to buy my own. My dad bought me Earthbound because "what boy doesn't like fart jokes" and because he read about it in some magazines and knew I liked "games with stories," which was basically how he referred to RPGs. My mom got me a bunch of cool games like Faxanadu, Milon's Secret Castle, and the LoZ series.

The last game they bought for me was FF7. They both remembered me playing previous FF games and decided to get me an early birthday present while they were out shopping.

My parents were the same. I've since questioned my dad how exactly he knew what games to buy and he had no idea, but he must have had some magazine or coworker or something advising him.

He got me the obvious good stuff, but also the likes of Secret of Mana, Illusion of Gaia, ActRaiser, Earthbound, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Lufia, and Star Tropics. Don't know how he did it.

none, but every time they saw me playing and there was a character that used magic they would remind me that magic isn't real, whenever a character followed an in-game deity they would remind me that this is wrong, fictional, and if they were real they would go to hell.
My grandma would straight up say that everyone in every video game was satanic regardless if it was fictional or not, except in sports games.
I was a really annoying atheist at 16 because of their constant hounding.

So you're cool with kids living with cancer until they die before they get a second digit to their age? Or children being literally raped to death in longnose sacrifices?

Oh no he does care. If he didn't he wouldn't have sacrificed his son for us, or would have just given up on us after our fall.
You're also confusing "being an asshole" with "having moral standards, and acting as if they have actual weight on your soul".
That said, Evangelical boomer "Christians" are really just fucked in the head.

No, the point is that, rather than sacrificing an animal every year so god will "passover" you, Jesus' sacrifice is the fulfillment of the covenant, his sacrifice essentially breaking the covenant and replacing it with a very, very simple command: believe in me and ye shall be saved, don't and you get to burn in the crucible of hell. IF you believe in me, good works should naturally follow (i.e. don't kill your neighbour you stupid fuck), if you don't you don't believe in me. If you pay lip service but don't actually believe, you go to hell. Simple.

God does care and made moral commands, and denying that he has made them is inherently sinful.
Evangelical boomers are going off of shitty translations and shit that their pastor made up (i.e. roleplaying as a wizard in DnD is a SIN and you will BURN if you don't repent according to the bibble, praise Jimmy!)
I presume the "not an asshole" part means that you're engaging in objectively (according to the Bible) sinful acts and denying that they are. Sorry to say, but you will burn if you actually believe in that stuff.

nta but french here, around the 90s we had that problem where news outlets would tell people how this or that was satanic and how it would make your kids dangerous psychopaths. They jumped on literally everything, video games, musics, ttrpgs, etc... 99% of the time it was targeted at foreign stuff.
Today you'd be laughed at for saying things like this but people who were adults then still occasionally parrot those points.

I used to sneak around the house. I figured, as long as I stay under their line of sight, and remain still in places they don't expect anyone to be there, they never notice me. I was really good at it too.

I practiced how to tiptoe without making a sound. I even managed to sneak up on people from the front, using distractions. Family gave me the nickname "killer whale" because of my weight and my habit of just popping up out of nowhere. People think I was inspired by Metal Gear, but I was more of a fan of Siphon Filter than anything.
