Nero-Sama Aenrhien Oh god, Skyrim has completely taking over my life. My mom has discovered that taking it from me is a good way to make me do things, because it will get done immediately if not sooner, just so I can get my game back. sad Here I am at these crossroads again,
wondering what will ever become of me.
And now and then I'll take one on the chin,
because I wear my heart upon my sleeve.
I've failed in life and I've failed in love,
but one thing makes me rise above.
So I sing, to let me know what's real...
and I sing, to teach me how to feel... Now my wife does it. T___T
...and this is why being single has its perks. I can do what ever the ******** I want ^^

T___T I am also a grown a** man, and yet it's still something they do. xD It's like "you get this back when this thing here is done", then 20 minutes later I'm like "okay so... that thing there is done, gimme my game back b***h". She did the same thing to make me finish my NaNoWriMo thing, I still had 20k to finish and still had my game back by the end of the day. ...Mind you, most of that 20k consisted of some variation of "damn it I want my game back" sweatdrop Here I am at these crossroads again,
wondering what will ever become of me.
And now and then I'll take one on the chin,

Deranged Hero "I've put Skyrim on hold while I play Skyward Sword(and thoroughly enjoying it.)
But just now... I had the realisation that it's nearing the end of November.
Where did you go, November?
It wasn't too long ago that I was couting down the days to Skyrim.
...I feel so out of it. Generally my boyfriend is around to kind keep me grounded when I play video games, but since his internet connection has crapped out I pretty much just spend my time playing games.
I get up, eat maybe, play until lunch and if I'm not being lazy I'll eat, play some more, if I need to clean up a bit I'll do that, then play til dinner, eat, then play until the early hours of the morning.
I love yet hate it at the same time...
Though, if I didn't have anything to play I'd be going nuts right now."
(And before anyone says anything. Yes, I have no life. I'm waiting on someone who is supposed to be getting me in contact with a Doctor, 'cept they seem to have disappeared off the face of the Earth. It is very infuriating watching time pass and getting nowhere drives me up the wall. Video Games are a great distraction, y'know so I don't fall into a depressive cycle... which happens more then I like.) The depressive cycles...been there. If it means anything I also have no life. When I'm not doing school work or (when I remember to) getting something to eat, sleeping, whatever, my time is largely just used to make sure I don't think too much. I play video games, write, dance around like a dork to songs. Tumblr is the greatest thing that's ever happened to me and while that's sad I also don't give a ******** least you're trying, right? I don't know what this message was supposed to do, some charming letter of solidarity perhaps or just the muttering rambles of someone who just came out of wanting very much to just...never wake up again a week ago, but there it is ~ Wish you luck with your search.

"My anxiety drives me into depression, so when I start getting overly anxious about things(aka thinking in general) I pretty much push everyone away and curl into a ball of angst. Then I just fight with my boyfriend, which makes it worse until I step right to the edge... and somehow pull myself back. It's crazy, and has been getting worse lately(specially so around my birthday, but I've managed to avoid it this year. Hurrah.)
Video games give me a reason to get up in the morning(as much as I'd love to say it is my boyfriend or other such sappy things, it's just not...), otherwise I might not at all.
I don't want to sound like "Oh woe is me" I just... I'm stuck where I am until I fix myself enough to be able to function in society(as it is, I can't talk to anyone I don't know - in person that is). The wait is just frustrating when you see everyone around you succeding in life.
But ah well, I hope next year is better, so I can put this one behind me. Cross my fingers for less Doctors assuming outrageous things(as it is, according to Doctors I'm a sex-crazed, drug addicted schizophrenic. Though... the first two were from an Indian woman claiming that I must be because western society or some crap.)"

Not that you have to, but sometimes it does help talking to someone going through similar things - especially the anxiety thing though I tend to experience it through conversion, getting physical pains and aches when thinking starts looping the depressive track. In any case my PM box is always open :] By they way, you don't sound whiny. Any more than I do, at the very least. Talking helps and it took me an absurdly long time to figure that out, longer to find someone I could trust to talk to. He's...well, there's issues there now, but in the past my friend really did salvage what little sanity I have left.

He's...well, there's issues there now, but in the past my friend really did salvage what little sanity I have left. "Haha, maybe, we'll see. I'm not one for discussing my problems too much - in depth I mean. It easy to talk about things that don't affect me as much, or isn't a current problem.
But with conversation, and even the THOUGHT of talking to people - makes me break down crying. Yes, in public. My body does not care where I am, who I am with... if I'm in distress I cry. It's humiliating. People won't take me seriously. I don't even WANT to know what people think when they see a young man crying for what seems like no reason.
I've just learned to talk about something means I'm taking up people's time, and if it gets me no where it's a complete waste(I have this... if I can't do it straight out, I won't do it at all because failure isn't an option. Something my mother has instilled in me.). I've only really started talking the past... three years.. when I met my boyfriend(and I'm trying to share more with my best friend, but... it's not easy to talk about things with people who haven't really expierenced the same things as you) but as of late talking to him about it is more stressful.. because we both know I can talk about the same thing over and over but it doesn't change the issue itself. Right now, video games are my temporary salvation because I can pretend that I do not exist and then my problems don't either."

"Is there anyone else that is interested in/playing The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword? I think it's brilliant despite what I've heard from others and I've had absolutely no trouble with the motion controls(which a lot of people have been hating on apparently. I played TP on GC just FYI so this is my first time playing a Zelda game on the Wii). Also note that I'm not much of a Wii gamer, sure I've played a few games, but none that really utilize the motion controls.
Also... I really, really dislike gamers in general. Then again, I don't like most groups associated with things I enjoy in general and avoid them. But gamers are the most frustrating because they feel the need to b***h about every little thing in a fantastic game... they just don't want to enjoy anything, I swear."

It boils down to the fact that there is this preconceived notion that you have to hate on every good game, even if their is basically nothing wrong with it, cuz its the hip thing to do. Take COD haters, they hate just to be hating. Sure the COD are carbon copy's of the last, but the games are still good or no one would play them.

Oh I know man, I know. Those type of folks give gaming a bad name. The stereotypical 5 second attention span players, that don't like to read any on screen text. That act a foo on xbox live since it gives them anonymity, since no one in their right mind would say the same things those kids say while playing on xbox live in real life. I like FPS but I tend to avoid the MP aspect like it has the plague. I feel like the industry had lost's its way and must include MP with everything even if it doesn't warrant MP. I wouldn't mind this as long as the single player experience doesn't suffer from the inclusion of MP. That's one of the reason's I love Beth so much, they DON'T want to add MP and will dodge the topic at every point. I'm still a bit pissed that Mass Effect 3 had MP introduced to it, then again that had EA's dirty hands all over it. I don't mind if a game includes 4 player online co-op but not every game needs head to head MP combat. Sigh my rant could go on, but I'll stop it here for now.

"The only MP gaming I like is co-op or 4-players sittting around a console. I don't like online MP AT ALL. These days if you want even just TWO people to play co-op or together you need two copies of the game and two consoles... let alone anymore. When L4D came out, my siblings and I were all over that, only to find out that it was only two-player... there is three of us. Another game that does this is Borderlands. Up to four player co-op... but you'll need atleast two consoles and two copies of the game to reach that.
I used to enjoy playing Halo with my siblings, free for all, just killing eachother. Once even got my mother and father into it. My mother was on my side. She managed to kill someone. Me. I was on her team.
Probably only time I played online was Halo 3, with my older brother. We were outnumbered somehow(I think we were against three people) but we kicked their asses by setting up ambushes in certain areas. But now I'd never touch online gaming even if I was paid to."

There just something about Halo MP that doesn't seem as infected by the plague that seems to infest COD and Gears of War, and other MP games. Maybe cuz in Halo it takes skill and is all about map control and not just spraying and praying and camping and noob tubing.

I'm pretty sure most people have heard of The Escapist.com and more importantly Zero Punctuation. Any who they also have a series of comics on the site as well, and this one has to deal with Skyrim.
Also "Yahtzee" has his review of Skyrim up, you should all go check it out.
