Title: How Much Love Do You Have For Video Games
Post by: oldgamerz on May 06, 2018, 04:31:56 pm
My love for gaming is about a 5-10. however my love for having video games in my collection is about 10-10. my other love is music in which collecting music gets an 5-10, listening for music it's a clear 10-10.

what's your scale and how much enjoyment do you get out of games and whatever else you collect?

Gaming is 10/10. Collecting is like 5/10.  I treat game collecting pretty casually as I just like collecting stuff in general, which I've had to tamp down on over the years.  Action figures are kind of a thing, but that's a mixed bag just if something jumps out at me, though I kinda have a growing Godzilla collection, with about a half dozen figures right now.

I could not possibly quantify my 'love' of gaming with a number. I played my first games in Kindergarten, but got properly interested when I was 13. I'm 35 now. That's two decades of my life with gaming as a key element. Gaming magazines are how I made friends in high school. Gaming lead to anime, anime lead to Yugioh, Yugioh is how I met my fiancé. We play games together! We have friends get together for gaming nights- usually board games, but sometimes multiplayer stuff. When I get home from work, I turn on YouTube and watch Let's Plays. Or reviews. Or research pieces on gaming history.

I do have interests outside of gaming. I sew, I craft, I listen to classic rock, I bug my cat, I watch Marvel movies... but I think I'm well beyond just saying I 'love' gaming. I live gaming. So- take that as you will, I guess?

It really comes and goes.  Right now, I'm so busy that I don't play games at all.  I haven't played anything in a month.  I just don't have time. 
I bought something last week, but it hasn't even been unwrapped.  It was Ironman XO-Man O War for Saturn.  I don't even have a Saturn.

Right now I hate my collection.  I'm having to move.  Moving this many games, systems, accessories, and other shit is just a nightmare. I honestly considered selling it all last night after I moved my 3rd arcade cabinet. I have too many games.  I need to pair it down and just keep what I really want.  I don't need all these Wii games.  There's no use in it.  It's just taking up space.  I need more shelves and more room to put them.  I'm trying to keep things from feeling crammed in my new building, but I have too much shit! [/rant]

I'll keep my collection.  I'll love it when I get it all set back up.  It's just a jumbled mess that needs a lot of work, and that equals a lot of stress.

Moving sucks

Easily a 8/10 if not more. It's been my childhood and hobby since I was born when I started watching my dad play smash bros. melee and castlevania.

I love video games. For me it's a perfect way to escape the reality and relax. After work I often play CS:GO. It's not like any other flashy shooter. Recoil isn't random, maps aren't lazy and open, economy is important, teamwork and communication is vital. That's why I often play it with my friends.  It's easy to learn but hard to master.
