Gaming is really an escape man…(gaming appreciation thread)

It's a great hobby but a toxic community.

Gaming was dope back in the day.. playing multiplayer with the boys, 2k all day all night, Madden tournaments.. I love that shyt pal

Gaming isn't a hobby for me it's passion

I'm a gamer with a capital G.

You nikkas are all casuals

Gaming is both the best (graphically) and worst (substance) it’s ever been.

You only deal with the toxic community if it's online gaming or you going out your way to read gaming sites.

Playing Red Dead Redemption 2 solo is real chill.

I don't see me not ever playing video games anymore. Even as I've gotten older, I still check out gaming news and information daily. I barely watch movies like that and I don't even check for TV shows since I haven't subscribed and paid for cable for like 15 years.

Yeah, this is definitely me. I don't go a day withouth at least like an hour or 2 of gaming in some fashion. The very rare exception when I go on vacations. Even then, depending on the vacation, I'll bring something along to play during the trip and to play during down times.

Gaming = Sex > Movies/TV = Music

Gaming > tv and movies at this point

That's been me since the pandemic i can't get into movies as much anymore

Gaming and Baseball got me through the roughest parts of my life on the real. When I was living with the in-laws a while back, I didn't have anything to keep me sane except my wife's laptop (sold everything to keep afloat around that time). I went through my goody pile looking for some games that won't cause my wife's laptop to have a panic attack.

I stumbled across Minecraft and it got me through that hardship. Gaming has always been my main chick that runs my pockets, but the coochie is fiiiIY!

Square biz. I find myself mainly watching documentaries and YouTube nonsense. For the most part, movies don't hit like they did back in the day. And this is coming from a "cinephile".

I just lost the enthusiam of going to the cinema and by the time its out for download I've lost interest.

Yeah, I dig it. When Super Mario dropped, my son and I were hyped AF.......and then came week three, and we still don't get the energy to go to the theaters, when we could just get Peacock when it comes out .


Plus, it seems like Hollywood is cheapening the product, while video games raising the bar. Yeah, we troll and shyt on gaming around these parts because "nerds", but deep inside...there's no other hobby that's going to restore the feeling like video games
