killertofu400 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I didn't have a console growing up, and we weren't allowed to play many PC games. I feel like not playing as a kid changed my relationship with gaming—like, I'm more into puzzle games and RPGs than melee games or first-person shooters that tend to be more fast-paced. Wondering if other people feel the same way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blackangel Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 As long as I was NOT enjoying myself and it kept me quiet and out of sight, then yes I could play games. If I started to enjoy myself, made any noise, or they saw me, I got beat with whatever was handy. So eventually I got to a point where I play games on mute, and show no emotion when I'm playing. That has stuck with me my entire life. 30 years. I can't play games with the sound on, regardless of what the game is due to the beatings I got when the game was audible.

Patrik Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Yes they did, but i got "how can you play games as a mature person" in my ears atleast 5-6 times a year, they still got nothing against gaming as long as i'm doing well in school and duties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 My father got me into gaming at a very young age and it's become a lifelong habit. Just like Patrik, most people frown upon my gaming habit but that doesn't affect me in the least bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initially, mine were strictly against playing video games but are open to getting involved in real life games playing before they later opened up to my playing for some limited time too.
