This VN destroyed my will to live. I cannot truly live because I have no "love". Fuck this shit. If dying weren't such a pain I would've done it thousands of times over. No of this is real. It's all a trick.

Sekiro made me realize limits are within the mind and that I can do anything as long as there's a youtube tutorial for it

Literally any game you play will 'change your life' to some extent. So, all of them.

P4A, because it exposed me for the fraud I was, and while learning fighting games, over time the mentality pushed me to put effort in the things I want to achieve instead of thinking I was good enough to just deserve it.

Dark Souls when I was 14 years old made me realize that games can be more than just hobbie

Playing Okami while my dad had cancer when I was a child was a nice thing to escape to.

I've made a wild amount of friends directly or indirectly through smash bros melee

Portal was first quiet and alone game I've played that doesn't have any action payoff at all besides the end-game maybe, and it sorta changed the way my brain paces itself compared to when I was younger.

I started washing my hands after I was looting bodies in Fallout 4 and Curie told me that I should wash my hands. I never thought of washing my hands for any reason at all, always found it boring, but after hearing that line from Curie I wash em all the time now.

I said that I started washing my hands after I was looting bodies in Fallout 4 and Curie told me that I should wash my hands. I never thought of washing my hands for any reason at all, always found it boring, but after hearing that line from Curie I wash em all the time now.
Funny thing is that I am a medschool student so I should know better about washing my hands but it's just so boring, thank god Curie changed my mind.

Castlevania: Mirror of Fate. I used to be depressed and have suicidal thoughts but now my hate for Konami gives me the strenght to go on.
Aiden Taylor
I'm gonna sound like a huge fag, but Persona 4
It made me realise how easy it is to be social and pretty much brought an end to my social anxiety

Danganronpa. Me and my girlfriend bonded over it when she first showed it to me. Due to other circumstances I might not be alive right now if she wasn't with me when we first got together, so by proxy danganronpa saved my life.

Team Fortress 2 was my first multiplayer online game and sucked me in for 1000 hours over my final high school years.
Wish I never touched it now but fuck I had the best time of my life, took me down a rabbit hole of online interaction that took till my mid twenties to control

I blame you for causing this pandemic
Logan Johnson
all of them by making it worse
I should have spent time on learning actual skills
Carson Martin
>learning basic hygene from an npc
this is one of those laugh or cry moments

You have to remember the NPC meme isn't totally fabricated. I'm talking about the user, not the character in the game.

This convinced me to become a programmer. Not really the base game as much as the whole modding scene that game has. I've always been more or less interested in computers and programming but Minecraft and Forge (community's API and Modloader) gave me a chance to apply programming in something I was genuinely interested in outside of the realm of programming tutorials and your typical repetitive first projects that you never finish because you get bored. I did not even create many mods, just a few small ones, but that experience made me firmly believe that I want to do programming in life. This gave me a kick-start on learning and after that I started reading a lot of tech-related stuff, researching modern technology and how they are built, their architecture. It is truly fascinating for me how one voxel game with putting and destroying pixelated blocks made by some swede on another part of the globe as a side project managed to affect me so damn much.

As corny as it sounds DMC3. I remember liking Vergil so much and agreeing with him when he said " Might controls everything. And without strength, you cannot protect anything.". It motivated me to start working out and bulking up and even to this day i still work out in the fear that i might become to weak when it comes to defending myself or someone i care about in an actual threatening situation. Vergil had a big impact on my life as a teenager.

I hope you and your girlfriend get COVID-19, tasteless ironic-weeb faggots.

Star Ocean 3.
Sent my emotions out of control for the first time.
I don't like thinking about it now because of what happened with Star Ocean Anamnesis.

One of the the very few games that genuinely has the weight and strenght of content to actually positively affect someone's life even if he isn't somehow screwed up.
I discovered Pathologic 1 back in 2008, the same year I finished highschool. It was the old version of the game, before HD re-release, with the insanely messy, barely-legible translation, and even then it was absolutely a fascinating experience.
It made me change how I view the medium entirely. Made me realize that games have the potential to stand up to any other medium in terms of narrative potential and artistic merrit, made me fascinated with the genre, and generally helped me to shape how I few fiction.
Later on it genuinely helped me in my academic career several times, and it sometimes still does. It's the kind of work that you can go back to for decades later, and like a trully great book, it will keep on giving you new insights and new benefits.
Not all impact on me was positive though. It was one of the main reason why I started posting on Yas Forums regularly, instead of only occassionally lurking. Something that became an addiction I deeply regret today.
P2 somehow managed to move the formula even a step ahead. The fact that it was burried by the critics will never stop being the biggest mistake this entire medium has ever experienced.
