Hey /v/ today I found out that I have ALS. My doctor said I have anywhere between 6 months and 2-3 years to live. I live with my parents and have quit the part time job I have while I get my affairs in order. As a consequence I have lots of time on my (failing) hands and am basically planning on playing lots of vidya and watching anime. What games are worth beating/replaying through in my final days. Also if anyone has any anime suggestions I'm more then open to receiving them
Read Fap Note, OP
In all seriousness, it's the greatest manga I've ever read

You know what that chair needs?
More wheels.
congrats on dying OP
>>340473563
Space brothers. Theres an als lady in it. Plus its actually a good show.
Play Steins gate and Life is Strange. Also Stephen Hawking was expected to die tens of years ago from ALS too so don't give in just yet.
Shadow of the Colossus/Ico are great games, even if they are short.
For animu, try Gunbuster if you're a giant robot guy. It's a 6 episode OVA.
Fuck that OP.
Before your body is completely shut down go get your dick sucked. do shit. then when you feel mentally and physically too tired to do anything. Then play vidya.

I appreciate the suggestion. I want to play shorter games/not RPGs or collect-a-thin type games because I don't know if I'll have time for them
I cant tell if the fact that you are going to pass away playing vidya is sad or poetic. Regardless I say you should play the last of us if you haven't already. One of the few games that have ever made me feel a glimmer of emotion, and its fairly short.

onani master is good but i like moleterman way better
what. just play baseball. ALS just makes you really good at baseball
Be sure to play the original mgs 1 through 3

>I found out that I have ALS
I thought I cured that like 2 years ago when I dumped water on myself.
>>340473563
Just wait for half life 3 bro, it's gonna be sick.

It is what it is. A friend of mine has had muscular dystrophy since childhood, and video games was his only real hobby since his hand muscles were stronger than any other he had.I don't know how he reacted when Skyward Sword happened.
>>340475541
I feel bad for laughing
>>340478076
Why the fuck would you spend your time playing games. Go traveling you dumb cunt
>>340473563
Zelda: Oot & MM
Talos Principle
Silent Hill 1-3
MGS1-3 + PW
Gurren Lagann
Ano Hana
>>340473563
You'll be fine, look how well Hawking is doing
>>340473563
Sorry anon that's a shit hand to be dealt.
Make sure you write down as much as possible, write down anything you think of or any ideas or thoughts you have. Write it all down and leave it for your folks after you've gone.

yeah he even somehow got accused of abusing his wife even though he is confined to a chair and cant speak. If he can do it you can do it too.
>>340473563
if its any consolation, OP, you're going to probably live a bit longer than they said (which is probably going to be precious to you in perspective). they always undercut it because you get to feel better lasting longer than they predicted and the hospitals giving you treatment look better for keeping you alive longer. so at least there's that.
>>340475541
The man is dying, let him do what he wants, sheesh
I suggest to "play" 999 at least once, ALS-kun, it's a magical game. On an actual DS is best, avoid the iOS port.
>>340473563
i have bone spurs growing into my spinal cord. Doctor said even with the surgery probably going to wind up in a chair shitting in a bag. Maybe we can be wheel chair buddies right up until you die and im left alone... again.
>>340473563
Do whatever you want to do, man.
Get high as fuck and play Hotline Miami. Put on some N'wah cosplay and play Morrowind. Take a shot every time you see an Overwatch thread. Tell her you love her.
>>340478624
This. Videogames are absolute trash.
>>340475541
I feel bad for you op but that shit was funny...
>>340478624
Yeah go traveling that way when you wind up on Al Jazeera getting your head cut off ALS wont seem so bad.
>>340479803
>left alone... again
Fuck, I'm sorry, anon
>>340474431

Couldn't they just wrap some kind of guard/armor on the point it'll start contact?
>>340480202
Jason Becker has been diagnosed with ALS in '90. Still alive.
>>340473563
Probably just kill yourself or give your body to research. I guess you can play vidya first but it might be better for scientists to have your corpse now you should ask. Don't let anyone see you ever again that's what I'd do.
>>340479826
They aren't total trash, but it's a waste to only do that. I mean, make some real memories before you die, do your best to have no regrets other than having to go so soon when you go.
If there isn't a good reason to hang around, consider ending it with dignity.
Make your wishes very clear and get them in a legally binding form before you are unable to communicate effectively and are potentially condemned to a living hell on life support by well meaning, but selfish or simply misguided relatives.
Actually no matter what you do, the last bit is important. You really don't want to spend years of your life as a vegetable or on life support, and unable to really do much other than brood about how much you fucking hate your family for not just ending it before your quality of life irrecoverably circled the last ring around the bottom of the toilet bowl and disappeared forever.
>>340473563
What were your symptoms OP?
>>340480396
>armored spinal cord
I'm healthy as a horse but sign me up. Also, double the spinal cord count, gimme graphene skeletal overcoat, 2 hearts and jackhammers instead of arms.
>>340473563
The Silent Hill series, they bring me much joy and sadness, ennui and shit. And if you've played them please replay theme 2 and 3 have helped me as much as vidya can
I'm so sorry anon, I can't imagine how you feel. For what it's worth I have an autoimmune disease that will be the death of me soon enough.

Just started watching a newer anime that i'm enjoying a lot called Kabaneri of the iron fortress. Pretty much a much better walking dead mixed with trains. I'd highly recommend it.
As for games it depends really on specific tastes because i play a shit ton of games but id recommend Manhunt if you like a psychotic, yet somewhat funny game. One of my personal favorites at least. Older Resident Evil games as well, Metal Gear, Devil May Cry, and the Witcher games have always made me happy so I'd recommend playing them if you havent already.
