Do you enjoy being a gamer

If you don't feel like reading, check that picture I made in photoshop HAHA!! [b]Do you enjoy being a gamer Bnet?[/b] Personally I love it. I really enjoy the gaming community on the internet. Gaming is getting more mainstream, which some people may not like, but I think it's cool how families are all playing Nintendo together now. It hard to find someone who's never heard of Super Mario or Pokemon. So I think gaming is a big part of our culture now, and I feel pretty happy to be a part of it. I just wish some people were nicer online, that's my only gripe about other gamers. What do you guys think?

  • Yes. As you can probably tell my favorite series is Metal Gear. I also love Pokemon, Zelda, and Mass Effect!

    • Yes i agree but there is nice people online but they can be hard to find. The worlds a cruel place and we need to make the best of it.

    • Sometimes. Other times I feel ashamed that I'm of the same species as other "gamers", not to memtion the fact that game companies try to suck all the money that we have in our wallets.

      I really like being able to have a unique alter-ego. Becoming someone within a game is just as important as becoming someone within your real life. There is only one difference, but Kirito from SAO doesn't believe there is any from life and in-game. The difference I see is that only so many people can appreciate who you are within a game, but the world can appreciate how you define yourself within "reality." So my answer is Yes, I do enjoy being a gamer. But I wish to define myself within the confines of reality also.

      Most of my friends are gamers, that may be because I was a gamer and I associated with like-minded people, or those friends encouraged me to start gaming. It's about 50-50. I'd consider myself the most hardcore gamer in my group of friends, in that I probably play more than most of them. Despite this, I'm still not as bad as some other gamers out there, and I definitely have not denounced the outside world just yet. I'm gonna' be hiking 200km in the Basque region this summer with all my gear on my back. I'm not as fit as I would like to be, but I'm working on it. It irks me that gaming seemed more attractive to me than sports, which of course is good for fitness. I eventually gave up the only sport I enjoyed, but gaming was definitely not a reason for that, that's another story for another day. It also irks me that it seems to get in the way of my college work and other stuff. Even when I'm not playing games, they manage to suck up my time indirectly through browsing B.net. But do I like being a gamer, overall ? I suppose so. Who knows what I would have done in my spare time if I didn't have games. Drugs, anti-social behaviour ? I got some good friends out of it, and B.net seems to be a pretty cool place when you get past the trolls and hate.

    • Yes but when I think of all the other things the world has to offer then it doesn't seem so good.

      • I love being a gamer, Ive been gaming for as long as I can remember. Normally I don't tell people I'm a gamer since most people see gamers as a bunch of nerds with no lives, but regardless of what people think it has never stopped me from gaming.

      • That's a difficult question that makes me imply many things as to what you're actually asking Do I like being perceived as a gamer? That also depends on how one perceives a gamer to be, so I don't know, probably not Do I like gaming? Yes, I do, do I like playing the games of this generation? Hardly

      • I like it but I wish I didn't. Every moment I waste playing games is a moment I regret wasting when I'm in X exam room and I don't know anything because I was playing games instead of revising.

      • I love being part of a gaming Community, but it sucks to be a gamer during a good game drought.

      • I loved it pre-New Hawtness. Flood was awesome, and there was no flamers against Halo. All this website is filled with people who hate Halo, and are waiting for Destiny.

        I've played games my whole life starting with Donkey Kong. Don't really know what else I would do :) btw if anyone wants to play Reach message me! I made a thread about it but got *no responses. Does anyone know a great place to recruit people for Reach other than b.net? It seems no one here is interested.
