I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
What was the last one you played? I got burnt out on football games.tree_ wrote:All the Maddens. I can get so hooked on these stupid games. I play online matches and get pretty good (I broke the top 20 in the world several times) and get so competitive it can be enraging. I almost broke my controller once. Madden is maddening. I'm taking a long break for now.
Because it's so cutesy. I was never ashamed to play a bad game.Monkey_Driven wrote:Both of the games mentioned so far are really good games. Are you ashamed because you played so many hours or that you played a bad game more than you should?
It's very cutesy. That Tom Nook is an asshole though.CopperTom wrote:Because it's so cutesy.

I also play every new one and make a new franchise. Currently rocking out the Bills. Love their uniforms.tree_ wrote:I play every new one that comes out... so the newest one.Monkey_Driven wrote:What was the last one you played?

I always feel like I could have been doing something more productive. I'm obsessive with games though. I can't just play for an hour and then put it down.Monkey_Driven wrote:Why?BurtReynolds wrote:all of them. I feel really guilty after playing all of them.

I'm kinda like this too. I rationalize it by reminding myself I have to be extroverted at my both my jobs and it's much-needed me time, but I also think I just like the escapism. The real world sucks a lot of the time.BurtReynolds wrote:I always feel like I could have been doing something more productive. I'm obsessive with games though.
