Is there a greater gains goblin than video-games?
I think I spent 2700 hours on gmod
This board
Nope, 2758
Lack of motivation
I put 3000 hours into Dota 2 and around 2000 into CS while also training 4 days a week in martial arts. It's possible to do both, but I did lack a fulfilling social life
Last I checked I had over 12k hours of playtime on steam alone, plus another 2k~ ish in games outside of steam.
Try spending over a year of your life logged into WoW.
a desk job
Some of the people ITT seem to play video-games full-time. If they have desk jobs on top of that, they must look like that dwarf in Morrowind.
what do you do in gmod? every server is different and idk the rules
Fuck you, I used to lift weights while fishing for lobsters in Runescape.
Netflix/Anime
Pornography
Alcohol
Tobacco
Drugs
Coffee
Tea
tea and coffee?
>video games are gains goblins
Just as much as a deskjob I presume, I play video games and still work out.
If you sit down for too log, it gives you low blood pressure and you'll feel weird.
God I fucking love minecraft
I'm currently running an 87 mod stack I cobbled together myself. Five hours passed yesterday while I was building a machine and I didn't even realize it. I'm going to play this game until I die
But yeah women are probably worse
enjoy watching paint dry
As much as I love video games and have played them all my life and have some great memories (raiding in WoW, playing dota with friends, mw2, etc) it definitely handicapped me in terms of social stuff. If I ever have a son I'll probably try to make sure he does at least some form of sport.
No scientific inferences ever provided for this stupid bullshit.

There is evidence that suggests reading the Bible, going to mass each Sunday, and accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior plays a significant role in increasing your test levels and getting you laid. Christ was a lot more prevalent in people's lives historically when test levels were at their highest. Who are known for being scrawny? Scientists. What religion are scientists usually? Atheist.
I can't argue that.
Imagine if you spent that time learning a language or an instrument or an academic field (or working out)
have you, nigger?
I have 7k in DoTA and I never came close to even being good at it. Escapism is a hell of a drug
That's such a bullshit comparison. All of those things are way more intense than fucking around in a video game. Besides, more doesn't mean better when it comes to improving yourself.
I decided to only play video games cross legged. After about an hour my legs keep falling asleep and my deal with myself is, if I break cross leg sitting then I give up the game.
I think if I really put my mind to it, 500 hours in become a Gamer Beastmode God and it's amazing. I think I'm done with this game, I feel confident enough to try learning guitar
Same bro. I'm 21 and have probably logged over 8k hours if I had to guess. I'm ottermode so not out of shape or anything. Started picking up guitar and between that, lifting, cooking, gym and work I don't have anytime for Minecraft. Actually feels really good
Get a guitar. I starting learning a few months ago and it's super addicting learning all of the classic rock songs Ive always listened to
Not him but I have a guitar since 2011or so. I can play decently but I can't play shit from memory, I need the tab or sheet in front of me =( am I retarded?
Do you drink or smoke a lot? If so you gotta cut it out. I'm still really new to guitar but I find you need to focus on one song really hard and you can memorize it easily. 2 weeks is a solid time to learn a song 100% if you practice hard every night. Also there are some really easy songs that have 2-4 chords with a fun strumming pattern that are easy to learn like "a horse with no name" or "wagon wheel", "wheat Kings" are all songs I'm working on
imagine if he'd spent that time sucking cock behind the local subway
doesn't really matter, time spent having fun is time well spent.
It's a good tip, thank
I wonder this all the time, user
ugh these guys are trying to make me not yank my peepee >:(
Yeah. Work.
Fucking kek

Spent 4k on Counter Strike 1.6
I've been really good at dodging this goblin since lifting. However WoW Classic is going to be the end for me boys. With WoW, you can't have 2 mistresses and I'll have to break up with the iron mistress. It was nice knowing you all while it lasted.
ignorant and unironic bait but anyway, heres a (you)
not everyone is doing it for muh scientific evidence.
simply ask yourself what you or/and your body desires and you know what people can controll you with.
P. much the time I spent on Morrowind
Pathetic.
At least do 3x week maintenance.
>Is there a greater gains goblin than video-games?
Smoking pot.
Played tuba for 13 years. All that did for me was make me lose my love for music.
>being dependent on harmful substances to enjoy life
Oof the contradiction
>following Christ for the purpose pf committing adultery
Unless you are talking about sex within marriage in which case i do apologize
I know it's retarded, but I'm addicted to the sense of progress and the """tangibility""" of having a rank or high level in a game. I know lifting is good for this too because you see numbers rise up progressively, but games just hit the dopamine itch so well.
I've been thinking about quitting gaming, but in the next few days there's a new PoE league... fuck man.
Awful mental health.
>draw for a long time
>decide to take more classes to improve my skill
>end up hating drawing for a long time since I drew what I was suppose to draw
I feel you. Though I wouldn't say I'd be as proficient as you were playing the tuba.
vidya doesn't affect gains negatively you zoomlet faggot.
Vidya lets you stay in instead of going out drinking.
I too spent that much time playing TF2 until I was 17
Smoking and drinking wouldn’t effect that desu. I smoke weed regularly but have a huge back catalog of songs memorised on my guitar, as well as a strong understanding of theory, all self taught. Just put the hours in
Jow Forums for me.
It seems most of you play only competitive online games or time sinkers. What about single player games? There's such variety of them and all the studies and help sites only mean online games when they say about gaming addiction.
How do I spend so much time on something that doesn't improve my life in any way shape or form, fuck
I have very short attention span with single player games, after a certain point I just forget about them and leave them unfinished
if you have a productive day in which you work well towards improving yourself then there is nothing wrong with rewarding yourself to a bit of harmless leisure. positive reinforcement
only if you have no self control
>enjoying life at all
oof
>oof

single player games are all trash
It's like saying all fiction books are trash.
nah. they have shallow gameplay mechanics and the story is written by failed hacks that didnt make the cut for hollywood. books or films are vastly superior if you like the story while multiplayer games have much better gameplay since they dont rely on poorly scripted ais
Dude what is superior theater or cinema? What is superior literature or music? Why people always forget that games add the aspect of gameplay, of interaction and that is why it's important. It's not movies or books or music it's a different type of media why do you judge it by other media's standards? It seems you only know games like CoD and Skyrim.
>other media's standards
because i could invest my time in a good book/film instead of a mediocre videogame?
even stuff like dark souls are mediocre since you can simply learn the mob patterns and you can't fail. multiplayers add the human component esponentially increasing the skill required to perform well, this is why they are superior
5k hours in dota 2 and im only a 3k shitstain

Fuck off wenches
I think the Batman games are really fun single player and probably an exception to what you're saying here.
Yes.
Apathy.
I don't think you understand what hardcore Vanilla WoW is about friend. You literally eat, breath, sleep (barely), WoW pretty much almost 24/7. The South Park episode Make Love not Warcraft was really succinct at portraying hardcore WoW players. You really don't have time for "3x maintenance" Not at all.
I don't want to live in a world where time spent having fun is time well spent. Certain things in this life are SATISFYING, and can only be earned after hours of hard work and drudging through something.
only one of these gives up anal.. be nice to her
Nah, I'd wager all 3 did/do at one point.
I uninstalled Steam yesterday after 170 Hours of CS:GO, 800 Hours of BO2 and 3668 hours of DotA . Yeah, games are gainz goblinzzz but only if you're a lazy fuck in general. Especially when it comes to school/college.
>dat feeling when you got 45€ from selling the vigil triumph sword for Sven.
It seems that you percept games only as functions.
Inferiority complex.
Sandbox ttt and modded hl2 campaign
dude, I stopped after the 300th hour. how the fuck can you waste that much time without stopping earlier
spent more time lying in bed and being sad
Those are not games. You faggots blam games but it's not about games. If somebody asks you about what you play it will always be some multiplayer shit or mmo or other time sinker. You're just lazy fucks.

Fuck steam, just uninstalled this goblin
Idk mang an hour or of playing vidya with friends can be a nice way to D E C O M P R E S S
You can play videogames, you just need self control kek
Minecraft gives my mind a way of escaping the poorfag lifestyle.
based. im probably 8000 hours into 1.6 myself
Pleb tier most played list
pretty much this
the only trait you need to be successful in life is the ability to make yourself work on a task for a few hours straight. what you do outside of that doesn't matter.
desu I dont even know how anyone doesn't get tired of a game after the 300-400 hour mark, shit gets stale
That's the problem, I have no self control
>no vidya
>no fap
>no poo
>cold shovers
>raw onions
>mewing
>fat "high test "women
>no pillow
>no alcohol
>no life
I wonder what you retards will fall for next.
yeah, girlfriends
