How has video game addiction ruined your life, Sup Forums?

I'm a bit heavy on the spending recently due to non vidya related reasons but aside from that it really hasn't hurt me at all.

You're just a beta faggot. Not everyone who plays videogames does it at a detriment to their own life.

t.normie shit punk as motherfucker

They cost me the first girl I ever truly loved.

>he made video games his life

Kek

I get to live with family so that means I have food and shelter. Not sure why you're so angry, I'll bounce back.

>have successful career in software development
>recently lost a ton of weight
>looking good and feeling better than ever before
>still single
>never had sex

Eh, videogames have been okay

I don't do chores.

That's it I guess.

That sounds like a you problem

video games cost me nothing, they are merely a coping mechanism for the ruin I bring on myself through broken personality and work ethic from a mishandled upbringing and no motivation to better myself, if there were no videogames I'd do something else, but my life would remain the same

How can you get addicted to vidya
I can't even get fun from them anymore

>unemployed
>overweight
>have sex all the time

my hope has been stricken from me. The quality of modern gaming and the death of some of the best genres for the sake of mass marketed horse shit sickens me.

>Active social life
>Straight A's in Uni
>TA job
>Part-time job
>In shape

and still have time to play vidya

get your shit together OP

I spent my youth playing vidya games instead of getting fucked in the ass to compensate for my aimlessless in life.
Now its going to be reasonably harder to get fucked in the ass so much.

Clash of Clans?
World of Warcraft?
Morrowind Online?

These are my drugs

>addiction

I almost wish I was. Getting shit done in vidya and seeing the backlog diminish is certainly more satisfying than refreshing Sup Forums the whole day.

I can kinda understand the other ones, but Clash of Clans, really? Isn't that a phone game?

Still play vg pretty much every day any hour im not working

Also my parents were poor as shit and i was a fat beta bitch as a preteen so you can do anything, no excuses

> video game addiction
implying i even play games when i sit at the computer all day.

I've doing outside and social activities since i was a child and up until university and i was always mistreated by people or made fun of or talked behind my back. Then that bitch that was my first gf dumped me after 3 months because i was "too kind" and i decided fuck it,i might be less miserable if i close facebook and break my phone and become a NEET. Now its only my dad giving me shit and not every human i know.

My life was ruined long before I started playing video games.

Videogames are cheaper than drugs and something to talk with people about. You don't have to talk to strangers about how many hundreds of hours you've spent on erotic visual novels or whatever shit but there's still plenty of games that it's "cool" to be good at. A friend at uni won money in a fifa tournament and people didn't give him shit for it, my roommate was in the Melee club and the four of us would play in the living room to blow off steam after studying.

Liking nerd shit isn't what''s holding you back in life, the fact that it's YOU that likes it is the problem. If you're charming and attractive nobody is going to look at you like a gremlin for admitting you play games. Henry cavill went on TV and said he was in a raid for WoW when he got the role of superman. Somehow I doubt he has trouble getting laid.

Video games are a hobby, and like any hobby they aren't enough alone to make you a complete and interesting person that women wanna fuck.

And my phone is always on me, meaning any time i have a moment I'm on it. Whether it's me taking a shit, in a work meeting, waiting in line at the checkout, or getting my car washed I always have it out an playing.

This OP, not everyones a fucking loser like you.

These are the type of games I have up at the top of my steam playlist, yet I also have a hot gf, have had sex with many girls and my gf is actually coming around today in just a few hours.

But notice how my playtimes aren't 5k hours like you fucking no lives? Yet all the people with 5k+ hours in do it on casual shit games like TF2 or fucking CS Goy. Instead of playing trash games for fucking ages, try playing some actual good games for once faggots.

my life was already shit. I use video games to distract myself.

pretty shit taste in games but i agree that people with thousands of hours in casual shit should be gassed

Do you hate every last one of us?

>Men of War

KYS right now.

>muh ww2
>HR, not even the original
>not even 200 hours in any game
>DUDE I HAVE SEX BRO WHY DO YOU PLAY VIDEO GAMES SO MUCH
why are you here, is this a pasta?

OP here, good for you but why are you so mad? I love video games and always will... I just can't stop. I own every console, even the Switch, and don't care now what happens because I gotta get that platinum trophy or achievement unlocked. I've accepted my fate being I am in my late 30's now.

Just the fags with shit taste and who make "vidya ruined my life" and "vidya isn't fun anymore" threads.

>muh WW2

Men of War can be modded to any era you fucking spastic. There is also Call to Arms, (modern warfare) and Battle of Empires (WW1) and MoW: Vietnam as well. But there are better Vietnam and Cold War era MoW mods for AS2 than MoW Vietnam itself. The Star Wars mods for Men of War are also fantastic. There are also variety mods for a shit ton of stuff, like even GTA, I had a San andreas mod and had Ballas and Grove Street Nigga's fighting each other. Also there are US Civil War and Napoleonic war mods, and also mods that add in factions from Stalker. Men of War is the GOAT video game series.

>HR

That's because it's longer than the original. I have played the original as well and DX1 >>>> Human Revolution by a long shot but HR is just a longer game. I need to replay DX1 though sometime.

>muh 200 hours

Every faggot that has 200+ hours in something is an autist who has 95% of his playtime in something like fucking Dota, Lol, CS or TF2, and every other game has under 10 hour playtimes. I have a lot of variety, I have a shiton of games well over 20 hours because I play different games all the time. I actually try to play all of my steam games, I just play Men of War the most.

Men of War is the greatest series of games ever made retard.

Just accept that vidya didn't make you a loser. If vidya didn't exist you'd be wasting your time on some other gay thing, probably comic books.

I'm addicted to videogames BECAUSE my life sucks.

not the other way around.

This, no matter how overweight I get I can still pull in black chicks.

>Makes me happy
>Cheap lifestyle

no, you have shit tastes son.

Men of War sucks hairy cocks just like you

>quit uni
>NEET
>still living with parents at 20
I just don't know what to do anons, I could get a job if I wanted to, but I can't seem myself working full time at a job I don't enjoy. None of the uni courses interest me or else I'd go back, I left because I was bored to shit after the first year.

Vidya didn't me, I ruined me.

If you don't like Men of War, you are literally a casual fuckstain and are worthless.

KYS you faggot, I bet you complained about micromanagement and couldn't deal with the fact that each soldier had an induvidual inventory. Salty fucking virgin faggots could never be good enough to master a game like MoW.

Get rekt faggot. Go back to your faggy JRPG menu sims cuck.

Why not learn a trade?

>given literal free job because of neet lifestyle
>acquire recently overseas and thus fob gf
>still play games 5 days a week

Works for me.

get a job before you turn into me

>I can't seem myself working full time at a job I don't enjoy
Do it not before you're in a much worse position and have no choice. Please don't make that mistake

aw, where did the bad man touch you user? Point it out on the doll.

>find gf that plays XIV
>fuck like rabbits
>move into apartment together
>eventually breaks up to do her postgraduate stuff and move to france
>now i'm playing less vidya and eating better and working more

hasn't, really

Not so much now but addiction to WoW and other games back in secondary school (yes british) basically destroyed my social skills and now I have no motiviation to do anything but now that I'm done with school I need a job because my parents keep moaning at me to get one, I won't consider suicide until they've moved on, I owe them that much at least.

Amazing, you barely play video games.

no u
fucking faggot nerd go some some dick

Don't listen to that clown OP, as long as you aren't NEET scum you are doing alright in life

Black women are the lowest of lows. Have some standards.

>virgin freak tries to make a comeback

HAHAA holy shit you little cucks crack me up. Just think that in an hour or so my dick will be balls deep in my gf's tight pussy and yours will be on your hand again.

Fucking cuck loser. At your point, you may as well just resort to watching Blacked porn, I don't think you could get any lower.

>The whole point of life is having sex
>with as many people as possible

Why do you people even do this? This sounds like a pretty sad life

That's probably the problem.
They're making them more unfun, so you can't get that satisfaction you'd get out of other hobbies.

>Used to be qt skinny twink neet
>Get a wagecuck job, gain weight
>Now have a little bit of chub because I'm encouraged to eat food and work makes it so I can't shave my body hair very often

y live

>Black women are the lowest of lows. Have some standards.
>At your point, you may as well just resort to watching Blacked porn, I don't think you could get any lower.

It gave me an easy retreat from the world through the years which made me introverted and robbed me of meaningful experiences.

I'm a manchild now

ASSFAGGOTS loser detected.

>mfw a faggot who has played about 12 video games total his whole life but has racked up 5000 hours on 2-3 of them thinks he plays video games more than someone who has fully completed 300+ video games and collectively probably has 10-15k hours in games.

Get fucked and stop playing the same gay shit over and over again.

you're a typical white beta cuck loser

Video games didn't ruin your life you did you fucking idiot.

Then find one you do enjoy. I'm 20 right now looking for work and i can't find shit because no experience and i'm living in a goddamn 2nd world country. Do stuff while you can.

Those posts were made by 2 different people.

So wait if i have not lost my job or gained weight due to video games am i addicted or not?

i may be fat, still got a 8 inch dick though.

have you had sex?

How?

Guys I'm not a virgin.

Depending on how fat you are you really negate the benefits of having a large dong by being fat.

Addiction of any kind only happens to weak people. They need to be weeded out anyway.

dude how?

I was just about to reply that at 22 you still have room to go out and do what you want but then I read the end of your post.

Better kill yourself

Woah

What do pucci taste of?

witch!!

I miss being a NEET. But whenever I have extended leave and binge vidya, I miss doing productive stuff. It's a vicious cycle.

Salty milk and dollar bills

take some advice from /ASP/

take a shower
lift some weights
gain height
have sex
get a clue

i believe this, his sister's pucci def leaves that taste on your tongue.

>gain height

just get a new job and lose weight, it's not hard

Of course. You've already robbed me of my future, all could have known the wonders of innocence, but you chose this path, and for it you shall burn.

It's more of a combination of video games, internet, and video entertainment that fucks with me. Mainly just causes me to be much more of a lazy piece of shit. Constant source of procrastination.

Hasn't necessarily ruined my life, but it probably slowed it down. Not that I'd be some awesome alpha male dude if these things didn't exist. '

I doubt I'd be any closer to sex if video games or the internet weren't a thing.

normalfag so mad

No but thats moatly due to me being ugly and nit talking to anyone in general

this. but though i cant even bring myself to play older games. guess its just me.
id rather go outside and ride a bicycle

man this is top notch bait, the cuck and kys really add to the flavor but the
>HAHAA
is a bit much, just a bit though
you've earned those (you)s

20 times 300 is 6k hours. And that is assuming every game I played is 20 hours, some are longer, like MoW, but some are under 20 hours as well.

But if you'd pay attention to my posts I think having too many hours in a single game is bad. The better thing to do is increase your game count, not hour count in just 1 game. It's the mark of a casual, thinking you are so hardcore so you spend all your time in 1 fucking game. You are right that 200 isn't dedicating yourself to 1 game. Why the hell would anyone dedicate themselves to 1 fucking game? There are so many good games out there. You are a fucking faggot if you only ever play 1 game. I don't care if you have 10k hours in 1 game, if you only played 1 game you are a newfag casual shitstain in my eyes. This is only amplifier by the fact that the type of people who go marathon sessions on 1 game, their game of choice is usually gay casual shit like LoL, Dota, TF2, CS Go or Overwatch. If you have OVER 10 (ten) hours in those games, you are a casual shitstain for not dropping that gay shit sooner.

>Still single
>Never had sex

Life status: Not ruined

>alimony and child support is sucking you dry

Life status: Ruined

Be grateful to vidya for saving you from marriage in an era where women are encouraged to exploit your sexuality to get in close and then throw you in the garbage once they've secured your wallet.

Quite the opposite. I became more focused and ambitious as fuck.
On my way to get a computer science degree. Got advanced law diploma before that. Thirst for knowledge has gotten through the roof. Almost like an achievement for knowing everything, the urge is there.

Started working out and running, got somewhat jacked and significantly stronger and more confident.
Maturity level increased as so many games like Xcom on iron man mode teach you to stand behind your decisions. No saves, every death is permanent, every move must be calculated and accounted for. Leave nothing to chances, and always have a plan B,C,D,E.
Game like Darkest Dungeon taught me how even from a darkest corner of a dungeon a virtuous people arise. No matter what life throws at you, you pile up the stress and at your breaking point you DO NOT break, instead you virtue the fuck out. You shatter stress and agony, and assemble victory and power from it. When everyone breaks, its up to you to be the last light shining the pathway and dragging the whole team out.

Be both physically and mentally fit, always and forever. When everyone breaks but one guy, be that guy.

also got my own house and a car at age 27. Realise that life is just like a game with no saves. Everything can be related to a video game one way or the other, use that to your own advantage.

I plan to make a custom Ancector Ring from Darkest Dungeon out of gold and rubies. Will always look at it to remind myself the importance of a clear and virtuous mind. Clean mind means clean unobstructed thinking powered by virtue.
