did you want to be a gamer when you grew up?
>>339038826
No I wanted to be a police officer like any kid with delusional dreams of being a hero
Now I'm just aspiring to be an aerospace engineer or an astronaut to become Major Tom
>>339038826
It's the only thing i didn't want to still be when I grew up. Today it's all that I am. I wanna fuckin die.
i didnt have choice
No because I'm 30 and we didn't realize that was going to be a thing yet.
I wanted to be a sysadmin. And wanted to play games whenever I wanted to and buy any chocolate bars and sodie pop I wanted back then.
Half of these dreams came true.
>>339038826
I wanted to do nothing, and here I am going on my 4th year of being a NEET. It's no where near as fun as I thought it would be when I was a kid.

Major Tom was a drug addict
>>339038826
nah, but I always felt I'm gonna game forever. Too dumb/unmotivated to make anything of myself, too poor/ugly/skinny to be chad. At that point, what is there besides video games and alcohol. Watching movies is alright, TV sucks ass. Lifted for couple years, updated myself from auschwitz mode to "skinny", woop-de-fucking-doo, so I gave that up too. And then I write these blogs on an internet forum for video, games, pretty fascinating stuff, let me tell you.But yeah, I've always loved video games and always will

Its not something you become, its just a hobby. The same as I make music, Im not a musician, its just a hobby. If I made money from my music, I would consider myself one.
I did choose to become a breather and one of those eaters. You know, the kind that breathe and eat.

You became a neet that could play games whenever you wanted and buy any chocolate bars and sodie pop with your parents' money?

>did you want to be a gamer when you grew up?
I wanted to be a movie director, chef, game designer or something in sports.My parents wouldn't have any of that and got me into computer programming and maths
Now I'm living an unhappy life with no real motivation or joy for my job.
>>339038826
does it matter anymore
>>339040259
I kind of know that feel. I wanted to be a fighter pilot, then I just wanted to be a pilot, then I learned that my one mental health condition prevents me from getting into any of that. I wanted to become a chef so I went into school for it, turns out I had also developed celiac disease and couldnt do even that.
So now instead of doing something exciting, I just play videogames and pretend that being good at them is somehow fulfilling and rewarding.
>>339040197
Yes, but I don't drink soda and eat candy anymore. Used to drink 2-4 liters of coke every day, but once my hands started to shake, I've laid off that shit.
Besides, this stuff is really cheap.
>>339038826
Yeah at one time. At first i wanted to be a wrestler but didn't have the talent, so then wanted to be a basketball player, but I am a manlet and lacked the skills to be even remotely good (I am better now), then I got really into video games and thought of being a game tester or developer, but I just realized that I only like it as a hobby not a career. Now I am just a dumb 20 something who wants to get into film

most people who offer anything worthwhile to the earth were drug addicts
If you're a "gamer" then you haven't grown up at all.
>>339038826
I never saw myself stopping playing videogames.
But I always wanted to be a biologist, but I slowly realized I'd probably end up as a teacher that way, so now I'm studying Biomedicine.
I'll probably also do veterinary medicine later, to be honest.
>>339040757
and thats mostly bullshit.
