StaceyPowers Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I’ve been having a rough few days, and have been more or less clinging to Dragon Age. I think this is a habit I picked up from another friend who also tends to absorb herself in Dragon Age when she’s feeling anxious or having other difficulties. It is a good game for it, since it is easy to immerse oneself in the detailed world of Thedas and its characters. What about you? When you are feeling down for whatever reason, are there any games in particular that you tend to play a lot? @The Blackangel @Alyxx @kingpotato @killamch89 @DylanC @LadyDay @Shagger @Crazycrab @skyfire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shagger Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) Gaming isn't something I tend to do when I get like that, or at least I don't deliberately choose to game because I get like that. I'm more likely to don my headphones and listen to some music, maybe even go for a walk as I do. If I want to game, but feel like I can't be dealing with any more stress, I'll replay a game as I find that familiarity more soothing and comforting that playing a game I don't know as well.

LadyDay Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Sorry you're not feeling well Stacey, I hope it gets better soon. I don't tend to play games when I'm feeling like this. I tend to draw or read or watch TV. If I do play a game it tends to just be whatever I've been playing at the moment anyway. Or The Sims 4. Comfort in the familiar.

kingpotato Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 I just go for Skyrim and I repeat the same cycle, attacking a dungeon/fortress, loot, sell looted items and repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xianders Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 The Witcher 3 maybe... I do not know. I very rarely feel depressed, so I find it difficult to answer this question. Mostly I don't play, but go for a walk in the Park or just walk around the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 It all depends on just how down I’m feeling. I’m on medication for depression and bi-polar, so I have some serious mood swings. I’m also on several antipsychotics. But that aside, when I’m down if I’m playing, then it varies. It’s always something I’ve mastered. Never any game I’m “just ok” at. Nor is it something I suck at. If I get to a suicidal point, then I play nothing and sit in silence doing absolutely nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Skyrim is my go-to game when I'm feeling down because I can do almost anything in-game and it helps to take my mind off the issues that were bothering me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
