Heatman Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Gaming addiction is something that a lot of people fear to fall into because it gets nasty when it starts to mess up one's life generally. You hardly hear people say they are addicted to games but truly, there are so many gamers suffering from addiction. Clarine Bryson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I wouldn't say that I'm addicted to any one specific game in particular, or even gaming for that matter. But since I have nothing but empty time, I play all day long, often just to fill that time. So any time you see me there is a video game running nearby.

killamch89 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I don't have any addictions to games per say but I always liked playing Skyrim because of the endless possibilities you can create with modding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Family sedan Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 I was pretty addicted to gaming in my early 20's, but not so much now. I didn't get therapy, but I was just tired of how my parents were looking at me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most parents wouldn't understand gaming as it still has a stigma of being unproductive. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Family sedan Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 I still sometimes wonder what my life would have been like if I hadn't played video games ever and had just read, drew, built model cars and faced my friends in backyard sports as a kid. Would it have been like the childhood of Kevin Arnold from The Wonder Years? I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are games that I'm with like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I've played lots of games in my time, both the ones I bought on my own and the one I collected from friends to play. But the most tremendous amongst them are; FIFA soccer series, GTA San Andreas MK God Hand etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never witnessed the whole season of San Andreas before. I never played snowrunner before. Can you share snowrunner's trailer here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 If i remember correctly, unless it is a chemical addiction, usually addiction is defined to be “addiction to the point where it affects normal life”. So yeah, for psychological addictions, as long as it don’t affect your life to the point you have problems in your life, and can’t go on, then it’s not an addiction. Me, in away MSFS2020 or anything related to flight sims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I can't give my all attention to a game, in order not to affect my psychologically reasoning. I love games be it soccer, action, adventure, horror, real world etc, I do enjoy but I don't get too addicted to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously - my junior brother was really addicted to playing this game Animal Crossing when it was released. I never knew he would grow from it.
