Why do we game?

[Fox12]

I don't know. Nothing better to do.

To experience things that can't be experienced in reality.

Fun, to follow a story, appreciate good artwork, level design, occasional challenge. And a good soundtrack making an all around immersive experience.

And to keep myself occupied to pass the time. Gotta do something to entertain yourself when your unemployed, and home 80-85% of the week. And TV nowadays is highly insufficient to keep yourself entertained throughout the day.

It's good entertainment, and one with challenges which we all need one way or another. And sometimes I'm reminded it can be a special art when some great games come out. Plus, I find there is a lot to talk about when it comes to games.

Because it's one of the few things in life I enjoy. I don't like going out to bars or clubs; I have no friends with which to hang out; I don't play any sports; I have almost literally nothing else in my life which brings me joy.

I find it's a nice way to de-stress and allow my brain to relax.

To alleviate boredom and to distract myself from the troubles of RL.
