StaceyPowers Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 Does anyone else here find that they tend to go on endlessly about gaming when talking to other people (not just here on the forum)? I have a hard time putting a lid on it, even when I know no one else is interested, but this could just be an autistic thing. Sharon 1
The Blackangel Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) I don't shut up. If I get talking about gaming, you almost have to duct tape my mouth shut and lock me in a cave. Edited July 7, 2020 by The Blackangel
Demon_skeith Posted July 8, 2020 Posted July 8, 2020 I'll talk about it lightly to like minded people, but I won't go overboard and I'll know when to be quiet.
skyfire Posted July 8, 2020 Posted July 8, 2020 If there are not many people who are not into gaming, i keep myself silent. Because talking about something they don't know often it ends up me being cornered.
Family sedan Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 I'm more likely to talk too much about auto racing or Metal.
DudeThatsErin Posted July 16, 2020 Posted July 16, 2020 I don’t really talk about gaming that much as I don’t play as many games nowadays. I used to play more but I’m not sure why but I just don’t play anymore.
skyfire Posted July 17, 2020 Posted July 17, 2020 These days I am mostly spending my time on the twitter gaming and other social media groups where the game is discussed. It seems like these groups can have pretty good amount of folks with whom we can relate with.
confusing_q Posted August 6, 2020 Posted August 6, 2020 Alot ! me and my friends play minecraft and when we dont -for example we are going out-we start talking about it !
Spikey Posted August 6, 2020 Posted August 6, 2020 I have some friends that are into gaming so I keep my gaming discussions with them. These forums are good for that too! 🙂

DylanC Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 Once I find the right people, I tend to talk endlessly about video games with them. It's nice finding folks who are into gaming. But you're right, it can be tough keeping a lid on it sometimes -- especially with people who aren't into gaming. Honestly, I find it a little harder connecting with people who aren't into games (though I still make an effort to, of course!).
Alexander. Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 I often talk to my family and friends who are into gaming. Whether this is a story, discussing a title, or arranging a gaming night, this is a discussion point which I'll talk about. I prefer chatting about games on forums due to anonymity and this allows me to dive deeper into what's being discussed.

Yes that's true and you know that the people on the forum are passionate about gaming just like you are so that makes it easier to talk about games also.
KuroInDistress Posted August 8, 2020 Posted August 8, 2020 As a socially anxious person, I get super excited when i hear someone talk about gaming because it feels like a topic I can contribute to and am not that anxious about it. So talk about it quite alot

And the anonymity gives us plenty of freedom to talk in depth, discuss what we like and dislike which is hard to share in real life.
