Reverie

I got to the point I was in the level 100's - 200's and I quit playing because I got stuck and I would never earn more things to help. I gave up at that point. I know several people who still play now but they use money to get the upgrades and items. It's a game I consider about going back to play - but I haven't yet!

I really enjoyed Call of Duty Mobile! When it first came out I played it whenever I was just sitting around. I can't play it while in the car though because I guess the movement distracts me in the game. I enjoyed the maps, and I enjoyed how I got matched with people! It definitely killed my battery which made me sad.

I have one pro controller, one other controller, and 4 of joycons. 🙂 I noticed one of my set of joycons quit working, and apparently this happens frequently. My friend's brother sent his back to nintendo and got them fixed, but in my opinion they didn't last long. This could be due to usage from kids.

I got a good deal on my Alienware Monitor because someone returned it and I bought it used. It's been GREAT and I don't think I would have gotten it at such a price otherwise. Their general prices are comparable, but they don't have as big of a selection as sometimes I would like. They have a lot of the lower level of PCs/Laptops but when it comes to the higher end of things they have a smaller selection. I personally go to a store called Microcenter for better selection.

I use my gaming PC for work, watching youtube videos, and of course to post on all types of forums. I enjoy watching Netflix on it while I work as well, and sometimes while I'm playing a game. It's definitely good for multiple uses! And it handles all my 100's of tabs open with such ease! XD

I've always had a custom built PC. I finally bought a prebuild - it wasn't too bad for my little bit of gaming I wanted it for. Since I got more into gaming on the PC I decided I needed a more customized build. I love my build right now!

I have a Logitech G903 Lightspeed Wireless mouse, but I use it wired because I don't mind. I love this mouse, I enjoy the buttons on it and I enjoy that I can make it move faster. My husband can't deal with how fast I keep it moving. 😛

I love the RGB. I wouldn't say it is necessary, but if I like the way it looks better I'm more likely to get that. I have RGB keyboard, mat, and of course in the actual PC case itself. My fans have RGB as well as a few other pieces. I enjoy the colorful ness.

I agree with Until Dawn, Outlast... These games were suspenseful and you get a big say of what happens. Overcooked is fun, but goodness - it does get stressful, especially so if you're playing with a 7-8 year old. xD He always added more stress to it for me. Playing with adults made it better of course because we were able to communicate better. I hadn't thought about Mario Kart - but I suppose what the video was true. The map/Items can cause stress. 😛 I'm pretty chill with losing on the game. I haven't played Bloodborne myself, but watched my husband play it and it was a bit stressful to watch!

If they are done with all their homework/practice and etc. I'd say about an hour during the week, but on the weekend 3 hours would be acceptable. I think it is good to put a limit on it. If there is an event going on in the game - I might consider longer, or they may have to take a break first and do something else such as reading for a bit, but then can go back and play more once they take a break. I would want to create healthy habits for kids. They need to learn that staying stationary for long periods of time isn't the best. So as long as a break is had, reading, writing, another hobby for a bit, a walk, then they can return to it.

2022 I definitely spent more time on the PC! I had gotten a new PC built and spent most of my time on either Call of Duty, Runescape, Destiny. Mostly Runescape and Call of Duty during 2022 though! I had played a few hours on the PS5, but primarily the PS5 is used by my husband.

On Call of Duty for example - I enjoy playing with randoms and then becoming friends! That's how I met a good chunk of my online gaming friends! I really enjoy jumping in a lounge and people are talking trash to one another! 😛 On games like Destiny where it requires multiplayer - I prefer to play with friends because it's easier to talk them through things and get things done in an efficient way!

I often play games to get away from reality. I enjoy getting away from real life a bit and playing these games. I'm not necessarily sad, but sometimes the stress of real life can get to me. Jumping onto a game and having a goal to focus on can help provide a distraction! Call of Duty and Destiny were always my best distractions! Maybe that's why I always return to them. 😛

I know Grand Theft Auto was often played by people too young. Still til this day I hear about kids playing this game and I'm quite concerned about that. These kids quote it, and they refer to the strip clubs and etc that are in the game. All I can do is try to move on from the conversation. I know for our generation, our parents probably just assumed it was child friendly. I know mine didn't care too much, they knew it was a game and weren't concerned about me being influenced by the game. I hadn't heard of the other games mentioned other than Legend of Zelda.

I love the remaster of Kingdom Hearts. At first I wasn't glad that it'd be available on other consoles other than Playstation, since it was a Playstation only game for quite some time. I'm over that now at least. The game is the same just possibly more better graphic quality for our newer TVs in my opinions. Gave me more reason to play through them again!

I haven't played it. I want to though! The last season was good - my husband was not a fan so I was having to play by myself though so it'd be cool if there were other people interested in playing to play with! Interested to know more about how the season is going!

I find Minecraft more enjoyable with a group of friends. I enjoy creative and being able to create castles and stuff! 😮 I like being able to build things with a purpose. I do like the other mode - but I just don't see much point in building anything THAT great. You're busy trying to build a camp to survive the night, and then you have to go and find diamonds. That was my favorite part though is digging down to the middle of the earth and finding the diamonds. 😛 My husband wants me to play again, but I just needed more of a break before being able to put more time into it. I bought it on my playstation 3, xbox, and he wanted me to get it on the pc too.

Whenever I go to an older school arcade it's the game I instantly go to look for. I'm not that great at it all the time, but I love the concept of it. It is a simple game - but goodness you can get stressed as the ghosts get close to you! I like how these games are still playable at arcades today. I have also gotten versions of it for the PC, and the Switch which was fun in its own way. I just prefer to play with a joystick because that really gives you a throwback to the pacman experience!

On Call of Duty I was a part of a clan, ended up being one of the leaders. The clan originally started in maybe Black Ops 1 - Dirty30Elites [D30E] I came across a few of the clan members on MW3. I joined in several games and joined the clan. We all played closely together on MW3, Black Ops 2, and Ghosts. Ghosts is kind of where we all slowly quit playing together as much. Ghosts was the last push for us and then some people went on to different games or real life. I LOVED it. We had 100 members and it was incredible. I loved Clan Battles. On Runescape I'd been in a few clans. I joined one I found on a forum and it was okay - but I never was too close to anybody. I quit the clan when I returned to Runescape. When I joined again I got invited to one clan, but wasn't a big fan either. I finally joined a clan where I was talking to everyone and was helping others. It was great. Well the leader was jealous that I was becoming more liked than he was so he kicked me from the clan. xD Quit worrying about clans so much then -my husband and I created our own and have a few members under us - but meh. We mostly just kept our Discord chat for Runescape general discussions and all runescape people were allowed to be on it and didn't worry about the clan specifically on there.

Yes! and since it has characters from Final Fantasy - I think that was their goal for it be semi-similar to having that group of friends that come together to fight darkness. It's a good theme and was great for me at a younger age.

I loved the first Spyro, but I REALLY loved the Spyro Season of... games that were on the Gameboy, I was addicted to those!

I know Destiny became F2P, but you had to pay for DLC's. It's an interesting concept to keep people interested in playing. Runescape F2P isn't too awful either now a days! I tried to play the F2P Fortnite when I knew it went free, but I just didn't enjoy the game personally.

There were some switch games I thought I'd be excited for - but after looking more into them I'm not AS excited 😧 The only game coming that sounds worthy of excitement is Starfield. It looks like a lot of fun, there has been quite a bit of hype but I've heard it wasn't as great as people hoped for.

I often watched youtubers that were trolling in Call of Duty. It entertained me. These 3 were my often watched channels: KOSDFF tK, Ms HeartAttack, YoutubableHD. They all pretty much quit Youtube and mainly stream these days, but I don't follow schedules well so I kind of quit getting to watch some of these Youtubers! I miss the days where these videos would get posted frequently.

Kingdom Hearts always pushes you to remember to fight the darkness. The light always wins! It's one of my favorite messages. Also with that, it reminds you with friends anything is possible. I also have to agree with those who mentioned Animal Crossing. The NPC's are very positive even when they are being upset with you lol. You can consistently see growth within your island and that's encouraging!
