I just spent an hour or two on Addicting Games playing this game called
Sushi Cat. It's really cute. :D
I do like playing various genres, but I'm not a total 100% gamer. So what exactly is in my mind in gaming mode? Well, this is what goes through me:
1. When I'm playing a game, do not disturb me. I will flinch and possibly lose my concentration. [And possibly get infuriated with the person who distracts me] It's not like it's a life or death thing, well kind of. But it means a lot just to get those points/scores/level. It's an achieving feeling.
2. If I like the game. I get into the game. Moving around/randomly twitching while playing a game is absolutely normal. I know my body motions will not help me dodge the bullet; it's just a mental instinct. Who really wants to get shot anyway?
3. Food is an option. Yes, it's bad to lose track of the time, but hey, the game's fun. I will sometimes take a break to snack on something. Only when I achieve what I want within the game. If it's an RPG, it'll be until I reach a certain level/point of satisfaction. But food isn't something that I think about when I get into a game.
4. Depending on the game, I like to wear headphones to listen to the background song/s. Yes, sometimes if I play the game way too long, I get sick of the song. Though, if it's like stepmania/ffr/ddr, music is everything and so worth listening to. Don't yell at me through the headphones if it's something to say 'hey' about. I might not be too happy that I lost 10 arrows because that someone needed to tell me that they needed to potty...
5. If I can't get into the game. I will find some other way to admire the game. I never quite got into Conquer Online, Ragnarok, Perfect World because it just seemed to complicated. I highly admire the art. As for Diablo II.. It's a paid game. It was a real pain for me since I was used to playing Runescape, where the items in the inventory did not have a certain space.
How do you act when you play a game?

When I was a kid, I was a compulsive steering-wheel-controller maniac. It wasn't unlikely to see my eight year old self with the game paddle held at a ninety degree angle while whipping around some of those Mario Kart corners.
I don't do that anymore. I think my only habit is talking to characters who can't hear me. Particularly those on my team when they stand directly in my way.
i am a huge game so i can definently relate to these symptoms, i for one hate it when someone disturbs me while i'm playing videogames. i get completely into the games i play so when someone distracts me, it throws me out of my whole zone, smh.
i miss diablo 2. THe golden 1.08 days :)
i agree with every point though
@BaLob@xanga - Diablo 2.... who knew a "click click die" game could be so much fun.
@xXDC_luyouXx@datingish -
haha, i remember the time before I started. I was like, all you do is click and thats it!
2 years later of addiction and $100 worth of gear I made within the game. owned by a video game
I agree. I can sit infront of my tv and do a good 48 hours on my FFX. I <3 that game so much. If i am addictted to a game, no one can dare talk to me about silly stuff like food or sleep for I just HAVE to know what comes next!
I don't like being disturbed...I get very pissed off. Often times I will go hours without eating. Time passes quickly and sleep is an option when I start falling asleep as I play.
If none of that happens, then it isn't a good game.
I don't like being disturbed either. However there are two conditions where I will let such disruption slide: 1) a girl calls me and 2) it's a girl I like ;D
So my mentality would be:
"Okay gonna beat this bosssuuu"
(One hour into game, the phone rings)
Me: "Ohaaayy :D"
Girl: "Hey, what are you doing?"
Me: *pauses game* "Me? oh nothing, you know, just chillinnn"
Girl: "Wanna go eat?"
Me: "Of COURSE. Nothing important going on here"
My ex could go for the whole day without eating if he had a game he liked to play. It was amazing haha. It was also handy because his mom didn't get groceries a lot of the time. So he could keep his mind off being starving with the game.
So true, so true.
When I played Fable 2, the whole day went on without food (no breaks here).
Same thing with Diablo, and Odin sphere and so on, and so on :)
Sushi Cat is adorable, i gotta say. But i really have to admire that you're able to appreciate games for what their worth, even if they're not great. most gamers I know just throw games to the side if it doesn't hold their interest for them.
Oh the memories... I started off on Ragnarok Online as my very first MMO. It's confuzing at first but it takes some time getting used to
Perfect World is kinda complicated, but more so...annoying! but whatever...Thanks for letting me in your mind.
Hey that Sushi Cat game is cute! and fun!

@Sunrie@xanga - See a therapist.
"The Mindset of a Gamer" huh? Sounds like the word 'gamer' should be replaced with obsessive addict.
@sarahvega@xanga - BTW, you did have a typo on your reply. There's a space between "the"
and "rapist". The rapist? There's a specific one? Anyway, you need help suggesting that. Not cool, chick, not cool.
You're fucking nuts. If you're a troll, you're not a very good one.
i agree that i can get into a game so much that when i get distracted i get really mad. @NoHeroesForTomorrow@xanga i agree with u only a few things will get me to get out of a good game 1) a girl i like callin me 2) The girl wanting to go and do something. other than those things im a hardcore gamer not much can get me to stop playin my game when im so into it
