I have a lot of responsibilites now, I'm a busy adult and I dont play any video games frequently. However, there's one video game I used to play for many years, and still play it from time to time. Its called Maple Story.
Well, you see... Maple Story is an MMORPG, but its special in that it features a relatively simple gameplay and you can easily get used to it. It uses a side-scrolling platform game mechanics, so it can feel relatively simple to play and easy to learn.
Its a game I started playing since about 12 years ago, so I'm very used to playing this game and have complete control over my playing time and thats why I never stopped playing it completely up to this day. I can integrate it into my life without letting the game take over my life or make me feel guilty of myself playing it ever. Its like a gift from heaven to me, this game.
The current game changed a lot, so I play an older version of the game back when it was at its best. Its called pre-bigbang - (big bang was a game update to Maple Story which had changed almost everything about the game, and these changes were bad and made the game not enjoyable to a lot of people).
Maple Story is relatively well known online game, so maybe people here on WrongPlanet have atleast heard of it, even if you havent played it before.
There are so many other video games I want to try, but I just decided not to try any new games because I fear I would become addicted and feel guilty by playing them too much and wasting too much time on these games.
Video games have always been, in some way, associated or connected with children, so some people consider video games as a waste of time when you become an adult. I, obviously, disagree with that perspective.
