Sup Sup Forums, quick question,
How do some of you more normie individuals split time between your significant other on your platform of choice? My wife wants to play TW3 after watching me play it the other day. The problem is, it's probably the greatest game I've ever played and I don't want to share. She's been playing the past 3 days in a row so my progress has been completely stalled.
>tl;dr: wife playing vidya overlapping on my vidya time. wat do?
p.s. no spoilers i'm only level 11
Do the old Bonhart
Burry her under the floorboards.
build her a computer and game with your wife dipshit
Tell her no.
>This triggers the nu-male
Are you playing on PC or console?
If PC get her a console and GOTY edition for xmas
If console get another console and both play side by side (me and my girlfriend currently do this one and its fucking sweet)
What you really have to do is get some sort of system going you know. Where you can tell that bitch, it's MY video game time. What I do is leave remind her that Vesemir dies so that she'll fuck right off.
>asking Sup Forums for wife/girlfriend advice
>nu-male
wanna know how i know you're a virgin?
sadly it's on our ps4. I guess I could go out and get the pro but I don't have the space and honestly I'd rather my living room not be too cramped with 2 tv's.
WHY
>wanna know how i know you're a virgin?
Well I'm not, so not only are you upset but you're also wrong. Imagine being you right now, lol.
suck her dick OP
ask if you guys can work out a system. you play one day, she plays the next. simple enough.
you guys are adults and should be able to work this out on your own
ciri dies
vesemir dies
eredin is an unsatisfying fight
you can romance yennefer and triss but they both end up cucking you in the end
you can bang the other sorceress with no repercussions though
>Giving up literally half the time on your hobby because of your house vagina
You kids these days.
Just
Tell
Her
No
for fuck sake
Sup Forums has rubbed off on you too long pal.
>ciri dies
You suck at the game then.
Get her a machine of her own
Bonding is worth any price
Also I don't think you should have a wife and a gf at the same time
>playing games on a computer
Thats fucking gay
>Well I'm not,
suuure
More like I rubbed off to Sup Forums
only if you're tech illiterate
user, it's generally not very smart to chase your wife away from something that you also enjoy doing. she's not sitting in on poker night or being obnoxious during the game, she just wants to enjoy TW3 too.
Witcher 3 threads where cancer to begin with but this bait is a new low.
Then she can watch you play. Its a video game for fuck sakes.
>acting like an actual five year old who doesn't want to share
>think this is okay in any relationship
how is your relationship going?
how is this bait
Its going alright thanks. Been living together a few years now and just recently helped her put together a decent PC.
>tfw my gf loves to watch me play witcher 3 because she takes it like a good movie
Feels good Sup Forums, you should try it.
Worst ending, poor life choice, sucks being you
how does she feel about you not letting her do the things she wants to do?
I'm not a teenager, and neither is she. As a result, she does as she's told.
that's the reply i was looking for. thanks for the lulz
>user, it's generally not very smart to chase your wife away from something that you also enjoy doing. she's not sitting in on poker night or being obnoxious during the game, she just wants to enjoy TW3 too.
Great, now apply that logic to yourself. Your wife has been preventing you from doing something you enjoy for 3 days, tell her to fuck off. Take turns like big boys and big girls, this isn't complicated.
You're welcome.
shes gonna want to have her own save soon. start preparing to pass the controller bro.
Usually my girlfriend will watch anime or play games on her 3DS or something while I'm working. When we're both home, we usually either watch stupid shit on YouTube or she watches me play a game.
I kind of wish we'd actually play more games together though. We were playing Yoshi's Wooly World, but fuck is that boring and totally not designed for co-op.
Read between the lines. The OP has a lot of elements that either triggers certain elements of Sup Forums or incite shitposting.
lmao user, i'm just wondering how else Sup Forums does these things and if anyone had any good stories about gaming with a wife/gf/bf/girl(male).
I've played vidya for many many many hours across many different platforms and titles, it's ok if my wife wants to play a great game like TW3 and share an experience with me. i hope you grow out of your bitterness user and find someone you can be yourself with.
ive been married 10 years. this user has it right. if she wants to play you figure something out so she can get her own console. as a man dont be the rug of the relationship, thats her job.
>share an experience
>hogs the console for 3 days and counting
???
I'd be fucking thrilled if my girlfriend wanted to play a game I was into at the moment, but not if it's cutting into my time that badly.
>nah man my girl loves watching me play vidya
no she doesn't
Buy her or yourself a pc and play it on separate systems and then share and compare your experiences depending on the choices you made in the game. It increases bonding with your wife positively when you both share a hobby and experience it together.
Either that or give up playing.
she's utter shit at the game. its taken her that long to get to level 4. it's really endearing to just see her smash square and do the dsp WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWW when she gets gangbanged by wolves.
its rare to see my wife play vidya and its awesome to see her having fun in an arena that usually only i care about.
why is that so hard to believe. My wife watches me play games all the time. Even asks when im playing "X" again.
I havent played pikmin in years and she brought it up last week.
Don't argue with people on Sup Forums, most of them don't even have any social contacts. I am glad your wife genuinely enjoys playing video games.
All I can do with mine is doing puzzles and playing board games.
sounds good man. i'm glad you guys are bonding over a hobby.
it actually isn't that uncommon. my gf likes watching me play certain games too. she especially liked watching me play last of us,
>she liked watching a movie with you
wow, that sure is hard to believe
So why the hell did you make a thread asking for help dealing with your partner when you don't care?
>tfw want to show my gf something cool in a new game I got
>tfw gf doesn't want to watch me play anything except for shit like Spelunky, Overwatch, survival shit
Would be willing to trade for a month or so, she can cook some mean french toast.
Managing time with my girlfriend is always very tricky. Part of the reason is that I really enjoy my time alone so I'm not exactly easy in a relationship. I don't always need to be alone, but I need it at least a few days a week. Hours, sometimes days.
Not because I don't enjoy her company or whatever, I just have been raised in a very private household where my parents even didn't see many people outside of work.
Anyway, I really enjoy it when she takes an interest in playing my vidya, which is fairly often. I don't mind it if she stalls my progress per se, if I really want to continue, I'll just tell her I want to play. Take turns or some shit. Isn't difficult.
Honestly I don't see the big deal.
lol my wife does that shit too except she always bugs me about finishing TLOU(i don't have the heart to tell her it's shit).
>getting married
your own damn fault
do what i did when i was younger and didnt want to share with my brother. get another ps4 and another tv. with the ps4 account system the way it is you dont even need 2 copies of the game if you have a digital copy.
fuck guys i was lent this game but i just cant get into it. i feel like i was lied to when i was told i didnt need to play the previous games or something
fuck her until she can't move anymore then play your game
>consoles
This shilling is getting pathetic.
There's references to the previous games and books, but the amount of retcons and simplified plot lines make the books largely irrelevant.
Honestly that's Witcher 3's biggest weakness is the fact it's so easy to jump into without prior knowledge of the games and books.
I get what you mean it's a lot of shit to take in at once, just continue though and pay attention.
i dont think she enjoys playing games as much as she just enjoys spending time with me. I can play any shitty MMO and she will play. She will even farm materials for me when im at work.
wrong image...
you sound exactly like me user and it's not really an issue that she wants to play. if i was really that much of an autistic sperglord to get mad at my wife for wanting to do something i like, i doubt i'd be married in the first place.
i just wanted a witcher/wives of Sup Forums thread.
i mean for example the villain is a spooky ghost rider and his crew or whatever? i feel like theres something that im missing that would make him a lot more threatening or interesting if the game is going to revolve around this guy
> no spoilers i'm only level 11
The funny thing is by playing even that far you've likely spoiled many things that in the books would be pretty major spoilers for the whole series.
For example who Ciri's biological father really is, that's something you don't find out until after you've read all the short stories and all the books, you really only figure it in the very last book.
>talking about vidya is shilling
why did i even respond.
The game portrays the wild hunt very poorly, just explaining that he is apart of the Elves from another world in just the codex.
Eredin and his crew are just poorly done in a lot of ways despite how awesome they are in battle.
Alexander??
>French toast
Breakfast is easy.
Is the Bloody Baron a good guy after all or not? I just accepted his quest to find his wife and daughter. He seems nice, but I have the feeling there is something shady about him.

Sometimes honestly I don't think I'm suited for a relationship. I just value my time alone so highly. I really enjoy time with her too. I feel sometimes though if I'm not alone doing my own thing, I'm being held back.
I think really though it's that I'm just not used to having a relationship again and the sudden jolt to the system of most of my life being alone and not really caring about whatever girlfriend I had at the time. I need to adjust properly instead of just thinking "oh no I'm being held back".
Anyway, my girlfriend is very interested in the Witcher. I would love to be able to have her play with free reign like your wife. My gf though can't handle realisitic violence sometimes, and the fact she has been a victim of rape makes things difficult when showing a grim series like the Witcher. I'll be showing her parts of the Witcher but specifically things I know that won't send her into a bad place.
Basically I got to monitor and control the exact situations when I play the game.
that's not how the witcher works. rarely is anyone purely good or bad
Nigga get the fuck out of this thread, that's one of the best quests in the game.
Either a second system or playing together while one watches and switching who plays depending on time played- or, if it's a game where it's quite possible to die, switch on death(but if a run goes on for too long, switch since those games tend to be shorter).
Decisions by either rolling a dice or some short match of some other silly game, like rock/paper/scissors, tic tac toe assuming that's its universal name.
You know, like you probably did in the past with a good friend.
be happy your wife enjoys vidya
Alright fine jeez
you will get back into the swing of sharing time with another person. it isn't so bad if you pick the right person to be with. my wife understands that I like to just do my own thing sometimes, i'm pretty introverted and she is mainly extroverted. it sounds terrible but in reality we balance each other out really well.
hopefully your wife can overcome her emotional and mental scars and play tw3 unadulterated.
Speaking of people watching you play games I have a crippled brother who can't play game anymore. He used to be able to play games and we used to play games together but now he's too crippled, he can't even hold a controller. For a time there he used to watch me play everything which seriously got annoying since his loss of control made him a pretty major back seat driver always rushing me to play it his way, which usually meant skip all the side material, stop me from trying to get perfect scores and just rush the story and move on to the next game. While I'm the type that likes to take his time get all S ranks, do a no kill/no alert run, find all the secrets on my own without a guide, do all the side quests, kill all the super bosses ect ect.
Now he just has streamers, mostly the SA faggots and most of the day from when I get him out of bed and feed him his breakfast, all the way until I feed him dinner and get him ready for his bath/bed he's watching them. On one hand it's liberating not having the backseat driver telling me how I should be playing games on the other hand he'll often spoil games I'm still playing because he's already watched someone play most of it and anything major his streamer missed he just looks up on youtube. I do kinda miss when we got experience a game together but not enough to really want him back out here telling I should just go and who cares if I only got an A rank.
i love the peanut gallery comments and genuine concern from my wife when playing vidya sometimes. she gets so assblasted when i accidently shoot the horse and not the rider when playing bf1 sometimes.
Beat her up a bit. Then when she has the baby go bury it somewhere in a hole.
> she gets so assblasted when i accidently shoot the horse
Mine was the same with Mount and Blade because most of the time as a horse archer it's easier to just aim for the horses heads and once they're on foot you can just circle around them and pelt them with arrows.
kek, im not an angry drunk holding out for titles.
In itself, I enjoy the time with her immensely, even if it's us doing our own thing in the same room. My problem is getting the correct balance of time alone. Time management has never been my strong suit, so I just gotta learn through experience.
My gf is pretty introverted, she gets very drained in social situations. I wouldn't call myself introverted per se, I can socialize easily, lots of people wantt to hang out with me, etc. None of it drains me, I just vastly prefer to be alone most of the time.
I would want her to be able to play it(provided she's terribad at games) but I don't think she'll ever get through her emotional scars to be able to confront similar things in a fictional environment. Honestly it's pretty good how she is, while she can't handle that sort of stuff, she doesn't blame the game or something.
Learn to share, buy another system, or be a dick and tell her to fuck off. Pretty obvious what your choices are.
lol same. my gf always goes "aww" when i kill and skin an animal in Far Cry.
also if i'm doing good in a game she'll compliment me. i love her.
My gf is disabled, not crippled, but disabled to the point that controlling games is very difficult for her. She hardly learned how to walk and balance how to look one way and move her feet at the same time, so just applying that to a game is very difficult for her. Even Spyro is very difficult for her, though she has been getting much better.
She's more of the watch and occasionally make a comment type. Since she doesn't know shit about vidya but wants to learn, she usually there taking in the experience if she can't play it herself. Not a backseat driver type, but I do take in her comments and suggestions.
Couldn't you just play a game randomly out of the blue for him? On occasion or something. Find a game that you are interested in and try to find out if he has ever seen anything.
If you wanna spoil yourself of the experience His wife had a miscarriage he buried it near the mansion that's why his wife left and also because he used to drink and beat her up. You can lift the curse of the stillborn to turn it into a friendly guardian spirit. Depending how you complete the quest he either kills himself or goes away with his wife to find a cure for her. He feels guilt for his actions and really wants to be a better husband/father
>Couldn't you just play a game randomly out of the blue for him?
I could it's not like he really has any control over his life anymore, I could plop him in a corner and force him to watch anything really. If I were cruel that is.
>Find a game that you are interested in and try to find out if he has ever seen anything.
The thing is he's usually seen everything I'm even remotely interested in play. He's also the type to watch those day one rush the whole game steams. So by the time I even buy the game he's probably watched a full play through. He has enough control over his hand to still sorta use a very light and highly sensitive mouse if I prop up his wrist so his hand in dangling just right and there are no crinkles under his mouse, and his arm is just right, and his fingers are in the right positions, and if the moon is in the right phase and we sacrificed to the correct god. Who knows just how long he'll be able to do even this with his degenerative disease. Just a few years ago I didn't have to prop up his arm and spend 10-20 minutes setting him up so he could use it, I'd just give him the mouse and he could use it.
So from one point of view it's almost a blessing that he even gets to watch whatever streamers he wants whenever he wants to watch them and who knows how long he'll have that ability. He might have to go back to watching me play games wrong soon enough.
I hope you're not lying about all this shit but one day if I ever get into controller manufacturing I'll try and remember this and make special hardware for disabled gamers at low cost.
What is the disease if you don't mind me asking?
You man up and support your bitch by getting her her own gaming device faggot

Well at least everything ended before V came out. That game killed me inside.
What, haven't found a girl like that on r9k? How odd
Do you want to take relationship advice from people who can't even interact with other people like normal human beans?
>having to share your pc
Build your wife her own machine. God I'm glad my wife doesn't play vidya, I can play in peace.
>basic shit like not forcing your wife to a dull life of videogame spectating during the only time off from the wage slave occupation is apparently beyond the average user
Just ask that she respect things remain spoiler-free. Who cares if she gets further if you guys aren't talking about it?
