hatred

>Tfw my cousin came from Afghanistan
>He walks in my room
>I'm playing battlefield 4
>He sees me playing it
>Within minutes of him entering my room and watching the game he starts screaming and yelling
>I tell him calm down man it's just a game and laugh
>He starts crying and starts talking about his dead squadmates
>I tell him stop stop being a pussy and play battlefield with me
>My aunt comes in and starts to calm him down and tells him to come back the living room

Jesus Christ if he didn't want to get reminded of the war why the fuck would he go into my room and watch me play? He knows I love to play shootan games. Fucking crybaby

I agree with the rest of your story, but you shouldn't call him a cryaby for having mental illness. Considering you post on this website, you proabably have it too.

played it already, it was pure K I N O

night in the woods

Animal Crossing
Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare
Pikmin(maybe not so much)
Shovel Knight

Brutal Doom

in what war where you in user?

I remember reading many times that playing shootan games can ease PTSD. Maybe you should get him into it.

Not him but it is, it can be part of what's known as "exposure therapy", part of a CBT treatment.

Army?

Talk to me about it, OP, I'm in too.

Tetris supposedly helps with PTSD

What about games that cause ptsd?

>Go off to war for a few years
>Finally back home, can't wait to get reacquainted with my old hobbies
>At my cousin's place, go into his room to see what videogames are fun to play nowadays
>He's at his computer, playing some shooter game, stand there and watch for a bit
>"What the hell is this casual bullshit?" I think to myself. "Why is everyone sprinting around? Is his health just... coming back? What? Why is there jelly on the screen?"
>Trying to work out what this abortion of a game even is... it looks kinda familiar
>The squad system... the vehicles... one guy seems to be a medic and another was throwing ammo around...
>Just as the match ends and this farting bass dubstep sound reverberates out of the speakers it dawns on me; this is the newest Battlefield game! BATTLEFIELD! I LOVED PLAYING BATTLEFIELD 2 AND *THIS* IS WHAT THOSE FUCKING BASTARDS HAVE DONE TO THE SERIES???
>I can't hold it in anymore and start screaming incoherently
>My noodle-armed Gen Y cousin tells me to calm down and play with him
>Thank christ mom comes to the rescue and gets me the fuck outta there as the tears roll down my face

Minecraft is pretty autistic but it's a good game to get comfy with, especially with SinglePlayer

The Great Console War of 2012. It was hell.

play RS1/2
not even joking
best way to get over an issue is to dive right in

I regret to inform you that that war has never ended. Only now Xbots have fallen, leaving Nintenbros, Sonybros, and PCfats to duke it out in a never ending battle of Console Wojaks and Goldface spam.

yeah simulator are good
just look at how untriggering my city is right now

Necrovision.

calm and serenity

I once had an entire county die off because of this bullshit.

minecraft and/or no mans sky on pacific mode and with a blunt in hand.
