Worth every penny. It's such a privilege to play a game so good.

I imagine these evil eyes staring up to me while she sips the tip of my cock.

bloodborne, when I fought 7 enemies at the same time with the reiterpallash
it was like.. I was reading all their moves
>>378673227
Battle Brothers. Took a weekend off work, bought a few cases of Franziskaner, a shit ton of Swedish fish, and never left my house once except to get some pizza. Shit was cash.

Nier: Automata

anno 2070
Does it every time I play it.
Problem with these states of mind is they can be exponentially difficult to get into.
I'd love to try meditating to my own music, but I don't have the fuckin' flexibility or bloodflow to sit in indian for fucking half an hour let alone 10 minutes
Ive tried so many other shmups to try and recreate the feeling this game gives me.
Very few come close, and none match it.
>>378673227
STALKER
I've never even finished the game, but nothing can match those evenings into nights I played for at least 8 hours straight with the lights off and went sneaking around at in-game night times.
Also WoW when I was like 14.

War Thunder, I killed 8 tanks with a fucking AA truck.

When I played Last of Us for the first time on grounded, I ended up losing track of time and playing for 12 hours.
>>378673227
Tropico 4 campaign
God damn that shit was so fucking fun.
>>378673227
MH, on a regular basis. I feel like nothing else really does it, and I'm not happy the series is progressing towards casualized animeshit when all I want is hunter-gatherer stuff.
Titanfall 2
Melee
Dragon's Dogma just yesterday.
But i kind of burned out already.
>>378673227
Nucular throne. Takes a few tries, but when you get flowing in that game you feel fucking invincible.
When i killed Laurence in Bloodborne.
>>378675564

I mean you could try reverse image searching the image it would have been quicker but sure.
Crimzon Clover.

I thoroughly enjoyed playing that game and traversing the environment looking for shrines.
I climbed the twin peaks before I even got to kakariko
Heroes of the Storm when I picked it up during that shitty cross-promotion event and stayed after it sucked me in. It's the way everyone else moves and how teamwork happens that does something for my brain I haven't had in a long time before.
I hadn't played Dead Rising until a few weeks ago.
I burst out laughing when I found the lawnmower.
Fun game.

Uncharted 2 when Nate is fiddling with skelzor

>30 hours
>1 win

I'm sorry but I just cannot enjoy that game. The Survivor AI manages to reach a level of retardation unprecedented in video games up until that point and since.

I know that feeling and i'd pay anything to find out the underlying triggers that activate this 'flow' state of mind in me. When i was younger i got that feeling all the time in WoW. In hard progress raids i was always fully immersed to the game and barely ever made mistakes. I also reached gladiator twice during TBC and duelist several times later on, that feeling of being in complete control of what you are doing and making decisions on an instinctual level is the best. These days i cant control my brain to any extent and only rarely enter the flow when playing competitive games (or doing anything else for that matter). Now that i think of it, Rainbow 6: Siege is probably the only game that still triggers it in me on a regular basis, on some evenings i play on high-plat level and on others im like low gold and always seem to miss every shot by an inch.
Truly happy though? Im afraid that its triggered for me through nostalgia in 95% of the cases (when it comes to videogames that is). The last 2 examples i can immediately recall were parts of Witcher 3 and Bloodborne, its been like 2 years since.
Automata. Such a beautiful experience.
