So basically, I'm not allowed to post here without ridicule because the circlejerk forums cred posters or whatever have decided i'm to be belittled at every turn for having an avatar that features an officially drawn sprite of tails that has a butthole. That couldn't be the comedic value of having it as an avatar, nah better just call that poster a fag because the other try hards are doing it. If I had made this exact thread I'd have been called a fag and it would be gassed immediately, because I'm not part of the cool kids club.

i do sometimes wish i could break away from what has become an addiction to video games, but i guess i'm just not there yet op

i dislike the word gamer because it makes me cringe every time i hear it

If you feel like you're becoming addicted to gaming, you might want to see if you can find something else to spend your free time with for now. Try a different hobby you might have been slightly interested in at some point, or focus on sharpening your skills at something unrelated to gaming. Cooking, exercise, typing, perhaps something work related, it's entirely up to you.

A true gamer knows when to back away and reprioritize their lives, and that they always have a refuge in their own gaming universe.

I've never heard the word gamer irl, although I often discuss video games with people who play them.

I've been having this problem too, but it's kinda difficult to validate taking a step back from games with the last Christmas break of my life half a week away and sooooo much free time to game until january. New Years Resolution, maybe?

Until then I'm gonna play a gently caress ton of smash and pokemon

As long as someone plays video games, even if it's casual cell phone games, they're a gamer. It's the hosed up people who hate games but call themselves gamers which need to be purged.

I don't necessarily have a problem with these people. It's just frustrating trying to find gamer friends irl when it's hard to distinguish level of gamerness.

the word gamer works fine to describe the hoi polloi who might just play League of Legends or just play military FPSs, but what do we call a true Gameficionado, who holds a passion and knowledge for most types and genres of video game experience?

It really and unironically is, considering games need a combination of music, artwork, interactive design, architectural design, story & dialogue writing, and everything has to work within whatever operating system & hardware the game's software will be designed around. Logically, if there were ever an ultimate combination of the arts to form the ultimate artistic piece, it would be a video game. feel free to put me in impzone.rtf but just think it through for a moment and you'll know its true.
