Break From Gaming?

Break From Gaming?
3 December, 2009  |  3 comments  |  Blog

Today I’m left with the question of why I actually game. I remember enjoying it. I remember having fun. I remember feeling satisfied after putting down the controller, or mouse, whatever. Today I’ve lost those feelings. I’m not having fun. I’m not enjoying it. And I most certainly am not satisfied with my gaming experience. The past few days I’ve had a bad patch of HoN games. I feel as though I’m losing every single one and it’s building the rage. Nerd rage to be specific. Speaking of rage, as I’m writing this Jon/Gray Fox is yelling at MW2.

Perhaps it’s just online gaming. Maybe playing with variables that are completely beyond my control is making me upset. I enjoy playing with other people. At least, I think I do. Maybe? I enjoy playing with people in MMOs. WoW and FFXI I enjoyed meeting new people, but shooters and strategy games not so much I guess.

So what’s a gamer to do? I honestly want to hit up FF12 again. I rented Assassins Creed 2, but I lost the pull it had on me once it was in my hands. We’ll see. I do plan on continuing HoN so don’t worry about that. I just need to be a better player myself and hopefully my experience will improve. Yay for more research.

Ah...that moment when you are sick of gaming. I guess you already know this but taking a break is probably the best thing to do. Or play something that you don't usually play.

I feel for you, hope your gaming mojo comes back soon!

It's a coming back, mon! Ya I'm bad. I know. Slowly, but surely it's coming back. I'm gonna pull out the ps2 and play some FF12 here soon. Then again... Ocarina of Time is looking pretty good. Decisions!!! I suck at making gaming decisions. =/

Last Names For Your FF14 Character

Who else groaned when they found out they HAD to choose a last name? I know I did. Not because having a last name was any more of a bother than having a first name, but damnit now I have to think of a good one. There's a reason why I typically keep the same name throughout MMOs or RPGs.. it's because I don't like others. Read more

Honcast’s Podcasts

I enjoyed doing the podcasts with Honcast staff members, Breaky and XanderK. I enjoyed chatting it up on recent games especially since Gray Fox doesn't watch them. It's nice to say "Oh my god, did you see H4nn1's Fayde that last game?" and actually have someone know who H4nn1 is. Gray Fox was learning, but most conversations ended with me giving off team rosters and what they typically played.  Read more

Rambling:
Mass Effect 2 and Console Fanboys

With Jon's homecoming a few months ago he received a PS3. For some reason I despised looking at it. It's odd how I've developed a sense of Xbox360 fanboyism. Before, my consoles lived harmoniously together, my PS2 parallel to my Xbox. But for some reason.. this PS3 disgusted me. Read more
