Do your parents support you playing video games?
nope
My father owns a PS4 and my mother likes Nintendo games.
i don't think they really care either way
>>345414830

It would be better if that was the real Justin
>>345414830
They're doubt so I doubt they mind much.
>>345414830
They never minded as long as my grades were good and I wasn't getting into trouble. My mom hated caving and letting my dad get my brother and I a N64 for Christmas back when I was 8 though.
>>345414830
in a way
Ill kick your ass and your pussy dads ass too you underage faggot
Sage this thread
They don't support me in anything.
Every thing I do, I'm dumb for doing it and should just stay at home taking care of them at all times. That's why they had kids after all.
Mum hates them with a passion, fuck knows why since she sits in social media 24/7. Dad used to play them with me occasionally.
>At least he's not out selling drugs

>>345414830
i'm an adult living on my own so it doesnt really matter
>>345414830
My mom likes to watch me play but she says she doesnt like to play them herself because it makes her nauseaus.
My dad thinks it's for kids but he doesnt really care.
My uncle was the one who got me into games, love that nigga like my second father.

>>345414830
My mom just finished final fantasy xiii. Says she doesn't like the sequel because playing dress up is dumb but she'll play through it anyway. She's also played through kingdom hearts 1 and 2.
My dad used to play Vidya with me and my bro back in 2005. The last game he played was MW2 and got to 10th prestige before he stopped playing vidya all together.

I'm afraid it's too late for that, we're getting older.

>>345417889
How does it feel knowing your mom likes teen boys?
>>345417927
Your father has good taste.
My Dad doesn't mind any of my hobbies and just wants to see me happy. He asks me questions about vidya and weeb shit sometimes but that's about it.
He liked the older Splinter Cell games back in the day.
My Mom doesn't really give a shit about my hobbies. She likes extremely casual stuff like Candy Crush and Farmville.
She actually bought me my first N64 though, and I probably would have been a normie if it wasn't for that.
My dad and I used to play through all the Halo games together until 343 fucked it all up with 5. He still enjoys the series on his own though.
My dad is actually way into VR since there's games that actually give you quite an exercise instead of being a potato. I swear this shit has mainstream appeal, only problem is price.
My parents don't care, I've got a job and finished school.
My dad watched me play red dead redemption once and was really into it.
My mom also watched me play shit like dying light and she always closed her eyes during any kind of execution or gory moment.
>>345418017
Any game with timed lobbies like cowadoody. But honestly, you'd play 3 matches, get bored and eat the rest of the stuff browsing /v/.
>>345414830
That's a fake account. Justin's twitter is @Jwonggg
>>345418261
Price isn't an issue since all technology gets cheaper as time goes on
I don't think they care much either way. My father wishes I would be into something else like automotive or a "useful hobby" as he calls it.
Mom could care less as-long as I'm happy.
My mom is dead and I couldn't give any less of a shit what my father thinks.
>>345414830
100%, we're a gaming family. Mom's gone now, but my Dad still plays RPGs and sim games (not Sim games, though), and he shocked the hell out of me last year when I found him playing Einhander and he was doing pretty well.
>>345418270
This desu
I have a job
I pay rent
I pay for the internet
They don't care
>>345414830
Nah, They still haven't grasped that this is my escapism yet.
mfw They still think i play games because i enjoy them, kek.I'm so lonely
>>345414830
no, they don't mind that much but sometimes my mom gets visibly triggered when i play in front of her.I still love her though.
I used to play Worms with my father he really loved that game. Then he died and I never played worms again.
>>345418471
Well that's kinda true but I'm talking right now. I mean PSVR will come out soon but it just isn't going to be the same only having a single camera to track. You can count out games like SPT and Holopoint.
I still play CoD 4 with my dad every once in awhile.
>>345414830
Parents just don't understand why people likes videogames when VGs exist since 1990.
My mom too busy smoking weed all day to care.
And my dad literally plays more video games than I do.
I have a college education, and a lucrative career materializing. My parents have both already accepted that I am better than them at life, so they're basically afraid to criticize me. My sister is the only one with enough balls to call me out on my pointless hobbies.
My parents don't really care honestly as long as I have a job and I get my degree.
My step-dad plays vidya, but its all normie shit like Madden and NBA 2k
>>345415523
>They're doubt
>>345418085
No, I just don't own any multiplayer game, the last multiplayer game I bought was Day of Defend: source and before that it was Call of Duty 4.
I still find videogames fun.

>>345418531
>Mom's gone now
She moved r-right
My mom doesn't really care or ask about it
My dad keeps pressuring me to do other things but doesn't make that big a fuss about it, he's tried playing a few things but they don't really keep his attention. The last thing he tried was Pheonix Wright on iOS, and he got stuck on the second case.
They also tried to stop me from bringing any consoles or my PC to university, just letting me bring a shitty laptop, but I got tired of that pretty quickly and just smuggled some PC parts in so that I could have something to play on.They didn't know for the entirety of my degree
>>345414830
Why does nearly everyone store their mother's number under "mom"? I put her name there just like any other person.
>>345414830
Pa likes vidya but doesn't have time for them, and doesn't know what he should play
Just watched EVO SFV grand finals with ma and pa, ma didn't really understand anything going on and commented on how big Mika's tits were, pa understood significantly more since he played a lot of fightan with me and my brother.

>>345419569
She's mom, man. That's what I call her. I see no point in saving it under her name.
My dad's the reason I got into vidya/electrical engineering. I used to watch him play Wolf 3D, and tag along to a local computer store (rip DNA Computers) while he shot the shit with the owner.
He still plays BF2, even has a nice HOTAS for jets and everything. Keeps in touch with a buddy of his he met on XFire back in the day too, apparently.
no, my mom always used to bitch how much i'd play games. but now that i work full time and support the house i dont hear anyhting. she used to play NES with me when i was younger, she was really good at yoshi for nes
>>345420138
I mean, i also call her mom but as far as i see it that's just giving away information if someone steals my phone. Then he can threaten her by calling her number with my phone and saying i was kidnapped or something? Who knows man.

They don't support it but they also don't reprehend me for doing so. My mother is very impressed at games in general and keeps saying that if she were born nowdays she'd probably love playing them but she's too old now.

Nope, the original fighter, black mage, white mage, blackbelt and etc one. Also isn't FF4 called FF2 in America and on the SNES?
My dad used to think that it was a waste of time and didn't understand them at all and would verbally make it clear. Then years ago he asked me why I enjoy playing games so much. I told him video games to me were like gold to him. Ever since then he hasn't really said anything negative about games.

It took me so long to realise how valuable a persona of discipline and interest in the workplace really is. Apathetic and unmotivated is such a normality for most people that doing anything outside of your expected duties attracts attention and gives you personal value far beyond your resume. As long as you're always prepared to fake confidence, wing it, move up and sacrifice a bit of time you will, even if means changing professions a few times, always appreciate the effort in hindsight.
>>345423792

I know this feeling all too well.
Nothing really excites me. I feel no passion towards anything. Honestly, the only reason why I went to college was because I had nothing else better to do. I didn't even know what I wanted to do. Somehow i ended up becoming an artfag and majoring in animation, on the sole reasoning that I like drawing animu girls and I'd like to work in vidya,but not touch the coding stuff too much.
It's enjoyable but the closer senior year approaches, I just feel the weight of the world closing in on me. Like all I can think about is how much im wasting my parents money just because I need someone to tell me I got a A on a test to make myself feel better. Doesnt help I had to pick the MOST expensive art school there is in my state.
>>345425250
Instead of asking yourself what do you like to do, ask how do you like to do things, starting obviously with video games. Figure out the rest.

>>345425716
Apply your degree to a field that can rewards your work substantially.
>>345426497
Like what? Advertising? Animation may as well be considered dead in america. Animators don't exactly have the most stable field from what I've been told.
>>345426712
I agree, doing animation for a job is difficult especially if you want to work for an animation business. Animating features and participating in large projects, especially as a graduate, is highly competitive. Amateur productions will expect you to donate time and labor at least initially and more established projects often consider your experience as payment and you end up tweening and doing dogshit jobs.
Yeah, advertising is definitely one, and a growing industry that expands by billions annually. It's also now an industry that needs re-evaluating online, something you already have some expertise on. Generally though if you can offer a company quality graphical and animated assets for their business, regardless of what it is, you should have no problem finding work.
Ive worked about 4 jobs in my life and at every one I offered to do design work for extra cash; making posters, index sheets, general documents, manuals, crappy little flash animations and video editing. I learned Adobe premiere overnight so I could make the promo-video for an event which landed me two more jobs from other local bars. People don't know shit about good design or care about visual mediums until it's in their face. Photoshop, videoediting in general and flash are still far beyond most people in the workplace, you could do infinitely more with a grasp on actual animation.
>>345424959

I'm a dropout as I said before but now I run my own business, that was kind of the point. I started that process by working and learning under people even when I didn't necessarily like or respect who they were as people. If you can't demonstrate dedication to a task and work on professional relationships in your field you will end up stuck. Thinking you should never be working under someone just shows how incredibly naive you are, thinking you know more than everyone else.
I got an opportunity to chase a dream in something I loved and never expected to do for a career. I'm 25, I get to live in a nice house, been comfortably investing in property for 2 years, helping my parents to retire and I work for myself doing a job that brings me very little stress anymore. Two months time I'll be raising a daughter, I consider my life close to perfect now and it was opposite 6 years ago. My only disposable income was tips and I studied during the days and worked at night to pay rent.
My only point is that it is worth working hard, and you can do the things you love.

Deleted save data didn't really surprise her, because of all the warnings you get and the fact that she wasn't into vidya before, so losing it didn't feel like such big of a deal.

That last flashback put her off: she believed that Nier would be able to cope with loss of Kaine, but not the other way around.

I know other women with the same name, I'm much less likely to tell my mother what I'm going to do to her ass this way.
My mom doesn't give a shit, and my dad constantly tries to get me interested in different hobbies. Fuck you dad, maybe you should have been there when I was growing up.
>>345432683
>fucking women who share your mom's name
I think Freud would like a word with you.
Both of my parents and my younger sister ride my ass for playing Pokemon Go. They make fun of me to complete strangers. It's gotten to a point where they were telling this story to a waiter that seemed visibly uncomfortable by the entire affair.
I dunno why that's where they want to draw the line, going out for walks at night with my friends is probably the most normie thing I've ever done.
She hey enjoyed when we get competitive on fighters. Now if only she could use a controller and not think of it as rocket science
>>345433015
That just sounds like outright insecurity/jealousy on their part.
>>345431916
like a sprite, without the bubbly kick to it
>>345414830
Not really but she understands that me being crippled, I can't go out and do a lot of RL stuff without a shitload of pain so I use videogames to substitute, and that I need the distractions to make it easier to manage the pain and think about things other than suicide.
>>345433317
I'm certain that my sister is jealous. She's 14 and she isn't allowed to have a cell phone because she sent nudes to some other kid at her school. I'd invite her out if she actually had the game.
I just don't understand why my parents care. I've been sitting on my ass for twenty fucking years playing vidya games and it's fine. I walk around town with some buddies for a week and all of a sudden I'm a loser. I don't get it.
>>345432842
They look nothing alike.
But yes, he probably would.
>>345414830
i think they supported it first, then started to hate it when i liked it and thought it takes way too much time but i didnt care about being addicted i was having so much fun. Lately i guess they´ve just kinda accepted it in some sorta way since gaming has become normie as fuck and so have i.
Just do your thing and dont let other people decide your hobbies for you.

Western education, ladies and gentlemen. Producing sluts since 70's.

Fuck my dad, don't care what he thinks.

>>345417404
Same here. Mine have mellowed out a bit, but they asked me about esports recently. "You play a lot, why don't you do the esports instead of that dead end job?" Gee I dunno mom, maybe if you didn't say my hobby was stupid and childish for 2 decades, then I would have had some motivation to try it out. Teachers and students were equally dismissive of video games as a hobby, even though they spent more time on Facebook than anything else.
If any of you fuckers have kids, you support the shit out of their hobby. No matter what. Even if they end up wanting to suck dicks, kindly inform them that they can make bathtubs full of cash doing that.
>>345417496
that's right, i'm buying them
My mom is like "you are old now, you need to be miserable like me"
I have a million in the bank but still tells me to get a job every week
She wasn't wrong
>>345433935
There were sluts around even when you were a kid, you just werent cool enough to fuck them
Yes and they let me get any game i wanted

I would just find a really low key job that barely makes me work. My coworker was a grocery store janitor despite being a 70+ year old retired gunnery sergeant. His reasoning? He didn't like being home alone while his wife, equally old, was out working. He literally got the job because he missed his wife during the few hours that they were not together, and wanted to spend that time being productive.
For you though, just find a job that lets you get away with anything, and see how much mischief you can cause.
Haven't even talked to my mom for over 6 months, and my dad is dead
Either way, as a kid my dad used to buy me one game a year at least. Even though he doesn't know anything about gaming he usually hit the nail on the head
Didn't start gaming at my mother's other than pokemon until i was a teenager and bought games that she whined about being "so violent and destructive!"
>>345435279
Around the 80s-90s, fat girls realized that they could be slots too, for all the thirsty losers.
And the world became a little more depressing because of it.

Mixed messages
My parents do support me playing games, since that's the way I'm paying my taxes.
>>345435149
They've probably just realized that you're extremely depressed and your "dead end job" isn't making you happy.
So they'd rather see you enjoy a job with no hopes, than a job with no end but better payment
>>345425902
>starting obviously with video games
ha ha
yeah..
>>345431963
My parents have yelled at me for getting cease and desist letters. I told them they wouldn't get any more, and they haven't.
My rate of piracy has actually increased since then, I just spent an hour or so getting better at masking the trail. It's kinda funny now too, because my dad actually introduced me to popcorntime. He knows it's illegal as fuck, but since they made it look like Netflix, he thinks it's more acceptable.
>>345423272
congrats anon
were all gonna make it
>>345435232
A million? Dollars?
If that's true, then you shouldn't be working or gaming, you should use at least some of the money to go somewhere you've always wanted.
When you get back you should do like the other anon said, get a job that doesn't require much effort. A gasoline store, or something even lower.
>>345435838
Yeah, but now I feel like I'm too old. Every team I try to join is 17 year olds. I'm only a couple years younger than Fear from DOTA2.
I did push myself to take a coding boot camp though, so hopefully that will work out. I'd like to do that and then maybe get an associates or bachelors degree shortly after.
My mother has over 2000 hours in Terraria and 2 3dses, and my dad plays more video games than I do.
>>345436413
Sounds nice, does he play rocket league?
>>345436228
esports is entirely dominated by young kids because they hire them as fucking 12 year olds in korea and china, and train them 16 hours a day.
I worked as a manager/translator for a US league team back in season 2 that bought a house in korea to train, and let me just tell you this, they spent almost no time actually training and practicing, then wondered why they were losing everything. The team ended up dissipating before worlds that year anyway, but damn.
Anyway, on the topic, my mom wanted me to put pokemon go on her phone and we went for a walk around the park to catch some pokemon, it was pretty fun.
>>345414830
>dad thought videogames were kind of dumb
>eventually kind of clicked in his head that a hobby is a hobby, doesn't quite understand them still but gets that it's a thing that I enjoy
And that was that. So long as I have a job he never gave a shit
>>345436498
>>345436228
Forgot my second part. If you want to be on a team, you need to find other people like you that can dedicate the time to practicing, and ACTUALLY practice. Don't stream, don't sit around jerking off, don't go out to eat, don't date, don't leave your house. Stay inside, and practice. That's why the koreans shit all over the US in pretty much everything not involving brute strength from fucking golf to esports.

Mexi-fag here. Dad is a diehard Xbox player. Since the original Xbox from like '01. Used to gangbang heavy until my sister was born and played shooters to kind of channel his anger into, eventually developed into a competitive thing. Mainly plays The Division , Destiny, any COD, and at the moment. Doesn't care much for story/atmosphere, always loved online multiplayer regardless of design as long as it has decent gameplay. Bought me an Xbox One about 2 weeks after it was released just so I could play games and give him extra opinions. Recently he's been interested in PC gaming since he found out you can still use controllers, I'm interested to see where that goes. Huge hobby for him, he's a godly player. I've literally never won any game against ever, even games that I play and he's never heard of (granted he plays a few quick tutorials) Kind of scary knowing his reflexes are so good since he's been shooting .357 and AK's since he was 13.
>Went paint balling last week for first time
>Didn't have much fun because Dad took out other team in like, a minute.

Actually my brother just got out of Juvenile hall and we all went together as some kind of bonding experience. My mom's idea for us to go, since none of us ever were the type to talk about "feelings" but my brothers been doing some pretty reckless stupid shit, so we needed to "be a family". Me and my dad are teaching him how to drive next weekend.

Well I'm a Norteño from Modesto, CA. It's true alot of Hispanics like myself are in jail and selling drugs and gangbanging, but all the white people I met were either
A.) People who went into the army because they realized they weren't smart enough for college
B.) Hooked on heroin or meth (usually meth, reason why i never let a whitey hit my blunt at a party)
C.) Registered sex offender
D.) (best case scenario) $35,000/yr. Income with decent car, living in a shitty apartment complex that usually has an empty fridge, extremely comfortable couch that was also their bed, PS4, 40 inch television, some Sennheiser headphones and about a stack of either KendrickLamar/J.Cole or Slipknot/Slayer CDs. I know this because I've been to many of these apartments either helping old high school friends get their stolen shit back or to hook them up with a dealer.
Blacks aren't that much better but those that deal get very good at and make about thousand/week or those that go the college route get scholarships for sports. Every color has their shortcomings, whatever color you are is no exception. Unless you're an American born Indian, cause in NorCal all those fuckers are loaded with money.

I used to get a lot of shit from my parents for playing too many games but now they're indifferent towards it.
I also play a lot less these days growing older.
Mother hates that I buy violent video games. I understand why but I can't bring myself to tell her I actually don't play them I'm just more addicted to buying video games.
Everyone thinks I'm playing games all day but I'm usually working on various projects or just shit posting.
For the longest time, they thought my video game playing was a problem.
They never actually did much about it, they just never bought me the newest consoles.
So I just ended up playing on their PC. Got me into PC gaming, so it was a plus in the end.
Stopped giving a fuck when I got into my late high school years, and never much cared since.

Because the first two are great games.
I replay them on a yearly basis too.
My dad used to play old arcade shit back in the day, although he does have some kind of bias against me compared to my sister in terms of the time I spend on the computer.
>sit on the computer and read and shitpost a lot of the time as opposed to playing vidya
>ANON SON YOU'RE PLAYING TOO MUCH VIDYA
>he sits and watches TV or plays some casual puzzle games sometimes
>never questions my sister who sits around on her phone or ipad 24/7
at least he's somewhat interested in that NES console ninty is coming out with soon
my mum never really cared that i was into it, but was usually the one who bought vidya for me
most she played was some tetris back in the day, usually plays casual mobile shit now

It wasn't so bad. I wish he would've played with us too though.
Probably. I first got into games because my dad had a PS1. He introduced me to Mortal Kombat because he liked playing it in the arcades.
Flash forward to the present day. Whenever I'm visiting him, we usually play Mortal Kombat X.
My mom plays less mainstream games, but she actually plays a lot more than he does, even if it's usually just the Sims, and more recently Pokemon Go.
