What's the most autistic/pathetic video game related thing you do?
When I ride the train home late at night from work I listen to the Persona 3 OST and fantasize about being in the game. It's one of the many ways I cope with being a fucking loser with a dead end job.
when i play a survival horror game i keep a loaded gun on my desk within arms reach
Elijah Carter
when im playing a video game and get thirsty sometimes ill pause the game and go drink water
Benjamin Ortiz
What are you gonna do, shoot the screen?
Charles Mitchell
I won't collect items or break boxes that are inside the homes of friendly NPCs. That's their stuff, it's not my right to steal it. Based.
Isaiah Gray
Nothing in a long time, but when I was in first grade I was huge into Ocarina of Time and during recess, I'd pretend to be Link riding a horse around with this fat girl who'd pretend to be Epona. We never hung out or talked to each other outside of that, and I was pretty well liked by other kids. She just wanted to be a horse and I wanted to be Link. I'd also get too hyped up during boss battles and jump up and down until I was like 13.
David Green
I say "oww" when I get hit in games.
Landon Davis
inserting my OC into games/universes
how they look and act never changes too and I use the same one. The only thing that does change is if they're physical or magical which I still have not decided to this day yet on a specific class
Oliver Foster
IT'S CALLED WIPING ALL OUUUUUUUUT
Brody Young
I go to sleep redoing games and movies like added missions, levels, scenes, plot points or bosses so that they appear in my dreams
Anthony Thompson
i was into fallout and what i did was grab a backpack and go outside looking for bottlecaps and store them on my backpack, then go back to my house and throw all the caps i collected into the trash can.
I self insert in video games in my head before going to sleep, accommodating the story for my existance. I'm always the same person with the ability to hop between dimensions but I lose my memory in doing so. Currently I'm in the pokemon world (Kalos region). Ironically I never self insert while actually playing the games
Evan Perry
I go to bed early so I can catch up on my 3ds library(I literally only play my 3ds at night in bed), but then proceed to pause what I’m doing every 5 minutes and phonepost here for 15 minutes before returning to my game and then getting the unignorable itch once again to check to see how many (you)s my shitpost/bait thread got. It took me like 4 hours to get through one courtroom section in Ace Attorney because of this stupid iPhone zoomer attention span I’ve acquired.
Sometimes i pretend that some protagonists are the same person because it makes them more badass that way
Jeremiah White
Listen to video game music and create stories of myself but in a better life to them.
Austin Green
I speedran some games. There's some definite sort of zen appeal in it where the whole thing becomes muscle memory through repetition, but I could never do it for years like some people. m.youtube.com/watch?v=b56N17d4WnM
Dominic Baker
Was playing Persona 3. Dad walks in.
Jordan Foster
i play gta online (which autistic enough in itself) almost exclusively in empty lobbies
all i do is my little solo grind routine and collect cars and i don't seem to get bored of it
i have taken a few several-months-long breaks throughout the years but i always end up coming back
Around the age of 13 or 14, I've been self inserting my OC into games and animes I like and been trying to connect all of them into one universe. I'm 25 and I still do it to this day. One of these days, I plan on writing a script for everything and pitch it.
Isaiah Davis
I fantasize about walking through a multi-story office complex at night, preferably a top secret one related to aerospace engineering because it reminds me of the game FEAR.
Shit made me chuckle, at least he's self-aware.
Jacob Phillips
wrong
Jason Baker
just because you and your nerd friends do it doesnt mean everyone does it you stupid fuck
Jace Phillips
i desperately wish anything paranormal or out of the ordinary could be real like in videogames, powers, ghosts, aliens, demons, whatever, this world is so fucking boring. also i sometimes walk and look to the sides like isaac in DS1 when im in a dark area.
Carson Walker
t.npcs
Jacob Lopez
That's not extremely autistic, just commonly autistic. I don't do it, but I've read a lot of weirdos, even on this board, do it.
Because the chance for adventure doesn’t exist for most.
Aiden Roberts
Only until I find a place where I fit or belong, that'd be enough for me
Christian Smith
dude its not really pathetic. You are fantasizing, what is pathetic about that? I fantasize often being an ashen one from DaS and shit. Its fun isnt it? how is that pathetic
Ethan Nguyen
Escapism is the weak's way of coping with a harsh reality In that regard, you are pathetic
