I used to be much more of a gamer than I am right now. My favorites were strategy games like Age of Empires and Civilization. It seems that getting into art and writing within the last few years has cost me my passion for gaming.

It doesn't help that I have a hard time finding games which appeal to my interest.

I'm not a gamer, I'm a LARPer. Rubber swords ftw.

I'm not a gamer. I used to play Left 4 Dead (the videogame)

I'm sure there are plenty of aspies in Myanmar who also don't play video games.

No seriously though, I'm sure there's a few around, but not many.

I've been spending a lot of time playing video games lately. I just got out of a lengthy hospital stay and am only now getting back to work, sometime within the next week.

But I mostly only like older games (about pre-2000). Newer ones are just too complicated. There's too much stuff going on. And, at least I know this is true with the newer Final Fantasies, there seems to be an overlying theme of hundreds of abilities, but you only need a couple to win the game. Having all that extraneous content is no fun for me. I'd rather have to make skillfull use of a minimal number of abilities.

I've been putting some intense time into the SNES classic "Breath of Fire." Soon as I'm done I'm gonna hit up Bof II, which I also have.

I've been playing TF2 a lot lately.

Sucks that it's free now though.

Most girls are either very casual gamers or not ones at all. There are exceptions of course though.


I dunno how much fail you tried to cram into that post but you've done a pretty good job.

If that was true somebody else would have debated my month old post. :roll:
