I didn't explicitly ask for anything, but I keep my Amazon wishlist maintained for this time of year. Also- despite the implication of the first post, I don't think there's a damn thing wrong with asking for gifts as an adult. If you know someone is going to get you a gift regardless, and you can name a couple things in their price range, why not let them know what will be appreciated most? It's better than letting them spend money on something you'll never use. You just have to handle it like asking Santa for things as a kid- that is, you can't expect your request to be granted. You have to hope you made the nice list so you'll get it. :P

This. My sister and I explicitly tell the other person what to get us. Here's a list of 5 things. And we always get something off that list. And this is mainly because she has some weird aversion to gift cards.
Also, probably a safe bet to say that everyone who participated in Secret Santa did in fact ask for a game or two.
Neither of those games are currently listed in your collection!They’re both just digital licenses so I don’t really consider them collected.
So I'll be the sole one to admit, yeah I do still get gifts from my parents on Christmas and yeah it's usually video game stuff. They always feel the need to buy us things every year, so I still indulge their generosity. I told them a few easy to find titles off my Switch wish list, and I ended up getting several. Then I did the Secret Santa here and one other place where I got several games off my retro and modern wishlist.
I bought a crap ton of games for myself this holiday season, probably around 20 or so. I'll post a pic in the recent adds thread.
I've given up on asking for games cause everyone refuses to buy them for me.So I don't ask for anything anymore but I do buy presents (games) for my self because everyone insists on buying me stuff i dont want.

I feel you on that one, or maybe you were just a bad boy? My issue are that people ask me what it is I want, then I show/tell them exactly what it is I'm interested in, then they proceed to...
...not get me any of the things on my list.
I'm not trying to make it seem as if I'm owed anything, absolutely not. I'm happy to receive anything. But if you're not going to get anything on my personal list, maybe stop asking for it and getting my hopes up?
I think I'm just being trolled yearly. It makes me sad. :( At least they were considerate enough to troll though!
Food is always nice during that time of the year though.
Without any intention of being/sound rude, you are some lucky mothafucka ;D
