    I dislike how people use game completion as a method to gloat

    Like bro, don’t we all play games to have fun?

      I’m currently playing Elden Ring for the first time and I’m note sure if I’m not just doing it for self-flagellation instead of fun

      I separate people into two camps.

      People who beat THE Sega Genesis classic Sonic 3 with lock-on Technology with Sonic and Knuckles and achieved all 12 Chaos Emeralds, and LOSERS.

        Oh my god when i was a kid it took me like two YEARS to get all the chaos emeralds in Sonic 1! That’s an eternity in kid time.

        There were no save states or anything like that. I failed so many times…but one day I finally did it, i finally got all of them, and on that day I was a god.

      Absolutely not! I play games to be the best! To dunk on those losers who can’t defeat evey boss with only their fists and a dream. This is what it means to be a real gamer, ignoring my family, friends, and calls from my boss.

      All you can do is look up at me on my pedestal from your lowly lesser-gamer chair.
