This is more for discussion, maybe some of you can handle it
I didn't even game often, but it constantly occupied my headspace. I spent tons of cash on Nintendo and steam just to barely play game but look forward to them. Or I would play them and it would just feel like a huge time sync and not fun.
I'm 40 now with 4 kids. I always justified it as a way to bond with them or something I deserved. I would say it was not as bad as doomscrolling or social media.
What kept me in the most was just memories of gaming. I just couldn't recreate the happy times. But I kept trying anyway. I tried moderation but I just cannot do it.
I decided to quit them all. It's liberating not to try for achievements or set arbitrary time limits. I no longer spend mental energy seeing what slop is too woke And acceptable.
I feel like this is something I should have done when I had my first kid years ago. It's a complete waste of time beyond some good mental exercises many of you cocks shamed vidya, and I salute you for it.
Everyone reading this under 40. Don't waste years like I did.
It'd the only mass media for which this is true. Movies and comics were always kiked and no living person remembers when music and books *weren't* kiked.
Pre-00s gaming is an interesting cultural artifact in that we can see something that doesn't explicitely hate us.
remember how Christ Mazta broke the cannon and remade orcs as "noble savages" and in the expansion made the humans "foolish racists who deserve destruction"? yeah they definitely jew'd the warcraft series and they did a very weak job hiding it
how do i know? search for Thrall's real name and you'll find your answer
But that's what "Thrall" means already.
> archaic
> a slave, servant, or captive.
"Go'el" means redeemer in hebrew, which what Thrall was to his Orcish people.
