I’m going to take a wild stab in the dark and guess that she’s attractive. Does that remove the mystery for you?

I never got past shooting the hell out of buffalo. Buying supplies, traveling, and everything else revolved around making sure I could finish the class shooting buffalo. I’m a very competitive person, but finishing that game meant nothing to me.

Oh, you finished the game? How many buffalo did you kill? Not as many as me, so I don’t care.

Boy got a new PS5 for Christmas. I enjoy playing Football, Baseball, Golf and Basketball with him. More for time/memories together….certainly no “gamer”.

That's what I thought when she first told me about it but she doesn't video herself. So all anyone gets to see is her game screen or the little avatar (cartoon person) she uses when just chatting.

Hell no. I do real stuff. My son’s first college roommate referred to himself as a gamer. Big pudgy soft looking dude with the whitest skin I’ve ever seen. He flunked out the first semester. Confirmed my stereotype of gamers. My son said he was weird.

I play video games sometimes so would be considered a gamer by people on here and do "real stuff" so your stereotype could be very wrong. Like most stereotypes though, you'll believe what you want and ignore the rest to confirm what you want.

Absolutely. No addictions in the 80s. When you ran out of quarters you were basically done. Ha! And you had to be home at the prescribed parental curfew time. In my driving years, mine was typically midnight. If I called collect and hung up, that meant I was running late but still alive.

I cannot imagine staying up all night and sleeping all day gaming today. It’s a thing and destructive IMHO.

It occurred to me that no one has mentioned that highschools and colleges have embraced gaming as a sport. Yes, you read that right, a "sport." They have teams and competitions and some get scholarships. At a college my other daughter visited they were told that the gamers were to be referred to as athletes. This was hard to swallow for a young lady who spends so much time conditioning and who puts her body through so much to play the sport she loves. I told her I'd have gotten in trouble for "accidentally" calling them mathletes. roflmao

Could be. What is your level of fitness? I attribute my stereotype of “gamer” to the generation gap. From what I’ve seen, it’s accurate more than it’s not.

As much as gamers try to justify their activity, it’s not real. It’s a make believe place they go to. Why they need their escape reality I don’t know but there’s nothing really productive about it. The real world is where actual accomplishments are made.

Occasional video games are no different than watching TV, televised sports, series, movies, board games, reading etc. People can take all of those to excess couch potato levels. Just about anything done to excess can create negative outcomes.

What about reading a novel? Would the same apply?

No. Not even remotely close to the same.

If you are referring to people who play video games to excess then I agree. The same could apply to watching too much TV, televised sports, series, movies, etc.
