This happened when I was playing The Sims for the first time.

My life improved after that day, drastically. I can say without hyperbole that playing The Sims opened my eyes to what a life wasted looked like.

Yea I get this with the Sims as well. I miss the days of being able to run around Sunset Valley and have fun. Now whenever I try to play the Sims I get stuck in a routine of wake up, try to max mood meters, go to work, come home, try to get some skills trained for an hour or two before bed and repeat and it feels bad man.

Why does Nintendo treat its fanbase as kids?

Learning to cook is really easy, everybody should at least be able to prepare a few basic dinners for themselves.

Lifting is not so easy, my wrists are too strained from years of video games.

>>383524220
Persona games feel weird because I'm pretty antisocial in real life.

>>383525897
Holy shit

>>383525658
Yeah, this was chilling to read, especially after finding out what happened to all his friends.

>>383526398
Oh I've gotten pretty good at cooking and my deadlift/bench game is on point. I've even learned how to draw/3d model and work in Flash, and work on vidya games in Unity.

They all got old and either got families or were rotting away alone and either retired or working dead end low wage jobs. One of them also died. Pretty real stuff for a pokemon game.
