Today, I overheard a girl and a guy sitting behind me on the bus who were talking about Skyrim, one of my favourite games. After a while, I turned around and, as a fellow gamer, thanked them for restoring my faith in humanity. They went very quiet. I'm now that weird guy on the bus. FML

Relax. You were probably that weird guy on the bus WAY before this incident.

The world is full of corruption, evil and mindless cruelty, but y'know it's okay because I heard two people talk about my fave game on the bus. The ignorance is strong in this one...

I find it ironic that the only people I've ever heard use the phrase ”x restored my faith in humanity” seriously are the same people who pretty much ruin mine. Way to be a socially inept elitist.

Ydi for allowing a bland generic dumbed down fantasy rpg series that's been copy and pasted since morrowind to be your definition as faith in humanity rather than challenging and engaging games (dark souls or the witcher) with more depth than a spoon.

So, they restored your faith in humanity by being gamers? By sitting on their butts and living a virtual life rather than getting a real one, most likely living off our tax money? Right... Okay, not all gamers are like that, but that's the stereotype these days. Anyway, you probably just shouldn't have said anything, they weren't talking to you so next time mind your own business.

I personally don't know ANY gamers that don't work. It's pretty expensive just to be one. High specs PC that has to be constantly upgraded, $50 on average per game, sound system, all the works. Most gamers I know, including myself, work our asses off. Gaming is how we reward ourselves for a job well done, especially since said job is usually soul-sucking and thankless. Most other people reward themselves by drowning in their alcoholic misery at the local pub.

Odd, most of the ones I know game on pawnshop ps3s or outdated junk and work as little as humanly possible. The ones like us that do work are usually considered softcore or casual and sell the rest our outdated hardware.

We're considered casual gamers by withdrawn middle aged men and teenagers with autism. Probably also by hipsters that stole their father's Atari. In actuality, casual gamers are the general population, that spend 10 hours at a time playing Angry Birds on the shitter.

What's Skyrim? ... & please note the blatant sarcasm mixed with sincerity!
