StaceyPowers Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 I have figured out one of the reasons gaming makes me happy is because it is the area of my life where I feel the least inhibited, and just am free to explore and indulge the spirit of adventure. Is it like this for others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Yeah - gaming gives you the ability to live out your wildest imagination and especially games that you can mod, you can let your imagination run wild and create anything.

Family sedan Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 In a basketball video game I'll go for an insane amount of steals. Most basketball coaches (especially defensive minded ones) would never let a player gamble that much. The opposing player may sneak by, so you've gambled and lost. Gaming feels way less inhibited to me than real life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it like this for others? Yeah, same with me. The games provides us an environment where are we are free to do anything. Specially those open world games, it makes you lost in that fantasy realm. When I am in too much of stress or tired, it really helps me relax. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NPCs don't even seem to mind. StaceyPowers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That reminded me a thread, where someone call me a murderer because I mentioned I kill wild dogs and pigs in Tomb raider game. Lol. 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Sometimes, I do call it my little Isolation point or chamber because it's all for me alone to explore and enjoy till I get enough satisfaction that I was after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
