I'm not alone! I thought I was the only one who did this. Though it's usually music rather than vidya.

I had friends throughout my life until the last two years of high school. At first I thought my friends abandoned me, but really I abandoned them. I stopped inviting them over, I stopped talking to them, I refused to use Facebook, and I always got mad when I was always left out of parties and shit.

Now I've had no friends for years and, once again, I thought that it was a bad thing... until my friends called me recently. I see the name on my phone, but I never answered until one day. My group of friends all said "Anon!!!" and were delighted that they finally got in contact with me. They invited me over, but I told them that I had work to do and couldn't but I'd like to hang out some other time.

They called a few times afterwards, and I never answered the phone. They left voicemails where they are all excitedly telling me to pick up the phone, but I never do.

They finally stopped calling a few months ago.

Man, it was so fucking fun introducing my gf to all my favorite games and watching her react to that shit, it's like a microcosm of experiencing something for the first time again.

This is honestly the driving force why I even want children. I hate every single thing about the prospect of having kids: the work you need to do, the monetary cost, needing to be involved with a woman for conception (and that's a whole other can of worms), the annoyance of infants, the stress, etc, all that shit, sounds like a fucking nightmare... except sharing shit with them.

Sharing shit with a mini-me is like the dankest thing I can even think of. It's like giving someone a do-over of my life. I can teach them all the shit I learned, introduce them to all the stuff I liked, and then hope they won't fuck it all up as bad as I did and love them even if they do fuck up as bad as me.

It's honestly what drives me forward to learn and do new shit, because I can share all this with my miniature self offspring.

I talk to myself in my head about video games quite often. Even when I have a friend also interested in the game to talk to, I talk about it in my head first to organize my thoughts and prepare topics.

But as a very recent example, I know for a fact that he will not care about the lives of fictional representations of Japanese historical figures in shitty button mashing games. So I keep it to myself and the thought organization goes nowhere.

I'll find myself doing that sometimes, yep. But also, I've had an idea for a story for a long time, that I've grown to love. So much so that I'm willing to have it in either film, animation or vidya. Not fussed.
I'll often sit there, or lie in bed, imagining the scenes in my head, the characters, the music, and imagine people loving it.

I just wish I had the money, staff and resources to make it happen ;_;

It's a split between lonely people who probably watch twitch streams or let's plays and when they play games themselves, they might fantasize about having an audience or a friend or gf or whatever to explain things to.

It's safe to say a good deal of people do this, it's often done as a learning mechanism, in school, some people learn stuff by writing them down, others by reading it out loud.
Talking out loud and explaining your play as if you're "let's playing" to yourself is just a manifestation of how you've accustomed your brain to handle information.

I constantly do shit like this. Sometimes I think about making a YouTube channel for game reviews where I can just be as passionate as I want about games I love and games I hate. I mostly end up just writing them down as long notes in my phone or word documents but never upload them anywhere.

>>324181524
Same here. I often dream of a game using what I loved most in real games I played, and imagine a reveal happening at a E3 or any big event and all people loving it.
I also comment and explain to myself about something interesting I find when playing, be it lore or some quest.

Wish I had a cool gf to play with and explain things. I feel lonely as fuck. ;-;

I think you have me confused with someone who talks out loud to themselves in order to think properly.
>>
>>324182141
The things in your head aren't as crisp and segue as nicely as you think they do. Our brains are actually very adept at convincing ourselves that our thoughts are way more cogent and cohesive than they really are. It's not that different from dreaming, if you try to retrace your steps from a dream, you start to see how quickly things become unhinged and lose cohesion.

At least that's my crackpot theory. I think we have to retrain our monkey brains to organize thoughts so that they fit reality, and some people have a harder time with that than others. (Or some people have no complex thoughts whatsoever so they never really run into challenges)

That depends. If I play a game that I've never hear anyone else talk about or mention, I feel like I can be the one that knows games that most people don't know of.

I'm still terrible at it when actually explaining stuff to someone.

I try to run through problems constantly, yeah. Sometimes I include thoughts to myself regarding standards in video games, and etc.

Because if it doesn't sound right in my head, why would it sound right when trying to argue against someone else?

Yeah I suppose listening to music over and over isn't exactly a sign of ocd haha, I just have ocd and always blamed that for the fact that I would listen to a particular segment of a particular track again and again

But damn, that track was gorgeous, I really need to play Chrono Trigger, I've been putting it off for ages in favour of other games.

Don't worry, and even if is, it's a good one for sure. I'm glad someone also does that.

Yeah, sometimes I end up having more fun replaying old games.

I always imagine someone's going to ask me "But WHY do you like ____?" or something similar, so I run through the imaginary conversation in order to figure out exactly why I liked ____ in the event that I am asked.

It helps for just learning about yourself, and being able to express those thoughts in clear, concise ways.

100$ this. Consider it practice for when you want to articulate your thoughts to others.

Can you explain how autism feels like? im not trying to be mean im actually curious
>>
>>324186175
True that, man. Same here.

It's getting pretty late over here, so I'm off. Cool to talk to a like-minded person though. Hopefully we can both create something or other in the future!

HOLY SHIT I am not the only one with this kind of autism. I do run an explanations in ither stuff in my head time to time, but it's often about video games.

I remember one time my good friend asked me something about a game, can't remember the game probably or dota or tf2, and I instantly shit a detailed explanation for him covering all aspects of his question, and it wasn't just a Wikipedia style copypaste in robot voice, it was a fucking crafted speech with an intonation and shit like asking 'and guess what do an average player does instinctively when he feels he is in danger?' and then waiting for his reply to explain further upon it. It was a whole conversation I crafted autistically in my mind, and when I finished it my friend thanked me...and jokingly asked if I prepare these explanations.., all I could reply to him was a retarded/awkward smile rising on my face like a rising sun reaching its uncunny width.

I usually imagine talking about weird stuff in a vidya to my sister. Preparation for when I actually do talk with her. She's especially interested in JRPG weirdness, so I make a point to tell her what's going on in what I'm playing. She's particularly fond of guy characters fujoshis might lose their minds over.
