Yaaay for grown-ups. I play WoW with a raid of fellow 30-40somethings. Yes, you can complete the heroic raid achievements with a strict end time of 11pm and the occasional "afk super stinky diaper".
SwashbucklerXX on
Want to find me on a gaming service? I'm SwashbucklerXX everywhere.
As a dad of two with a third on the way, I like this one.
I don't even bother to get online multiplayer anymore, because by the time I've learned the game, everyone else has figured out how to exploit every single flaw and weakness in the game and I have no chance at doing anything but dying.
I have a friend who still lives in my home town with his parents, and we play games occasionally still.
But whenever I need to go because I have work the next day he's always like "Man what? It's only 10pm"
And one time, I finished work late, at 7:30pm, which is 3 hours later than I normally finish, and he texted me sayng how we should totally hit up some online gamezzz, and I said I couldn't because I was "Tired and had important things to do around the house before getting to bed" and he always calls me lame, or a fag or whatever.
It's not until reading this comic that I realise the transition I have made, that my friend totally hasn't.

Yeah, pretty much this.
Three kids, 30, and I have zero time to devote to online multi. I love Halo games and I really want to play this one, but oh man does this comic hit pretty close to the mark.
I don't know if you could make a zone that would work though. Wouldn't the kids just lie about their zone to come in and pwn us working slobs?
Underground? Professional? What? I don't think there's too many people on live playing games for cash which is my interpretation of professional and isn't underground supposed to be illegal or less known or something like that?

Since I am a stay at home dad right now I can get in some gaming time before 10pm. I've got a job interview today so that is going to change soon. It wouldn't be so bad if my 2 year old would go to bed before 11. The 6 month old is still in easy mode.

Maybe I'm just misinterpreting those things.
Underground is for people who play from their basements.

That would be a better method of releasing anger than throwing it

I can laugh though.
Wait, you can play that game on Tuesdays?
Sweatshops?
Slave trade?
Mail order bride companies?
GABE AND TYCHO DO NOT READ THE FORUMS

Did you get an achievement for that.

Dont worry, you will relate. In about 10 years. Unfortunately, by then you may be like me, and not remember what you just read.
Wait, what were we talking about? Something about Zero Wing?
Red Dead Redemption Multiplayer
Civilization
Sword of the Stars
So many potentially awesome multiplayer experiences that I haven't partaken in, because fuck, people are too damn good at videogames.
Man if you can't pick up tf2 within half an hour maybe you should take up knitting or something instead.
also lol, wage slaves with no free time. I can't relate at all. Or even figure out what life choices would cause this to happen.
