StaceyPowers Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 If you had to pick one videogame that somehow represents who you are as a person, which would it be and why? I would choose BioShock Infinite because I see life as a sea of variables in which I am always looking for and striving to be a constant. Booker and Elizabeth would sooner not exist as they were than allow themselves to vary from the constancy of what they deemed an ethical path, and I admire the hell out of that.

Juneberry Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I have to say, the game I've been playing recently represents me pretty well. Harvest Moon: A Tale of Two Towns has to do with polar opposites (I'm borderline- I see the world that way most of the time). It involves living a quiet life, which I generally do... And to some people, these games are just awkward, also like me. I can probably think of other games that represent me too, though. This one just felt fitting the most right now.

The Blackangel Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Hatred. Nuff said. But for those wanting more info, I get to go around slaughtering unhindered. No moral constraints, no cares for who it is that I kill. The world is finally black and white. None of that “gray area” bullshit. Misanthropic desires sated. Bloodthirst quenched. Stress relieved, until tomorrow. Then we begin having fun again. I guess that also offers a bit of explanation behind my hollow teardrop tattoo.

Bullshit. Just because that's what you would pick doesn't mean anything to others. Don't project your opinions onto others and tell them that their opinions are wrong if they don't mirror yours. That's a very entitled statement. Solipsism is not an attractive trait. Edited April 23, 2020 by The Blackangel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly you've some nerve complaining about me claiming that Lester the Unlikely, a blanket stereotype represents anybody when you're claiming that Hatred, another blanket stereotype represents you. The only difference is I'm not being serious. Get a grip! Edited April 23, 2020 by Crazycrab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only difference is I'm not being serious. Get a grip! Maybe you should mention that it's a fucking joke? Saying that I have nerve? You're damn right I do. I don't put up with bullshit. I don't give a fuck what game you pick. Pushing it onto others is what I give a fuck about. I don't care if it's a god damn joke in your eyes. It's not one in my eyes. There are people that don't and can't tolerate having shit shoved on them. Maybe you should try taking your head out of your ass. But a word of ASSistance, that's a lot easier if you don't put your foot in your mouth first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that both your reply and @Juneberry's have an overlap in that both of you picked games that in some way reflect a black and white world/opposites/splitting--maybe something easier to connect to and more reflective of our inner states than the ambiguous world outside. I can relate to that too. Ethics in video games are so simple: kill all the assholes =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I wonder if anyone is kind of obsessive with games like Sonic and Contra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a couple die hard Sonic fans that despise SMB. But I could count them on one hand and still have fingers left. As for Contra, there are definitely super fans, but I doubt there are any obsessive fans. Maybe it's just me, but the first stage always reminded me of the Vietnam War. It just looked a lot like what was to be expected in the jungles there. Weird I know, but I always think immediately of Vietnam when Contra is brought up.
