Gaming is a wonderful pastime. It's also a way for us to connect with our friends. You know this if you're a true gamer. And true gamers are anyone who games with a pure heart. If you go into it with bad intentions, you're not a true gamer. If you set sail on a new game only with the hopes that it will enrich your life, then it will. You'll find the perfect game for you: one where you're rewarded for your efforts and make progress that is equal to it. The wrong game won't do this. The wrong game will make you feel like you should have never picked up the controller in the first place. 

You will sink hours and hours into the wrong game before you realize you're never going to crack it, and you should just give up. But these are important lessons, too. They teach us about fortitude. We all need the experience of playing a game that gives us nothing in return. It makes the good ones all the sweeter. Then we can turn to these gamer memes.

    selma @selmacashmoney Sick of the woke, non conventionally attractive male video game protagonists. ☑ Take Joel from The Last of Us. I've used filters to remove his aging skin, DEI chin, woke wrinkles, and greying hair. Now he looks strong, masculine, and attractive. 12:59 AM - Dec 18, 2024 505.2K Views
