Quest #100: Why do you game?

@commandernici • 107d

because they have such a unique way to tell stories because THEY'RE FUN (or frustrating but in a good way)

@buster • 118d

Cause it's fun.

@highflyinpenguin • 118d

Cause it's fun 🐧

@legodad • 119d

It’s a way to relax and connect with friends.

@jpegmario • 121d

Why's the sky blue? hahaha Because it's really fun/interactive idk!! i just always have

@kelseyb • 122d

Because it’s fun and I like playing with @codyb 😊

@dennis • 155d

I'm a collection completionist that rarely completes collections. Physical collectibles cost way too much money, but I still get sucked into them too. The games I play all have little collections of...more

@fl3rk3n • 208d

Bc it helps me get away from all the stress life had to offer.

@bloodangel2890 • 208d

I game because it’s an easy/healthier way to unwind. Also, the majority of my friend group are dads. So we can’t just get together and party and hang out at the drop of a penny. But instead, we ge...more

@uxorcist • 295d

Horror's eerie touch, Games bring solace and delight, Laughs, growth, friendships bloom. 💮

@bammonty • 305d

Most fun thing to do in free time and once you play games you can’t stop

@jklein8383 • 308d

It's a nice stress reliever

@izimmbiplays • 316d

I game to get out of my own head. It’s like therapy for me. I love to game, it’s fun for me (most of the time) and provided me an escape from the crappy hand at life I’ve been dealt and have to ...more

@codyb • 394d

To relax mostly, but lately it has been another way of spending time with the family.

@gongshowdad • 398d

I feel like it’s more of a time to just spend with friends. I play way more multiplayer games than single player. It’s essentially my version to calling friends on the phone and chatting with the...more

@nasko0406 • 412d

It is something I have always down. Started as fun with me and my grandfather when I was young and still fun with the family and everyone I play with online.

@seenitcoveredit • 429d

To calm myself. Doesn't usually work, so I just have to try again the next day.

@zonkedwheat9999 • 461d

obviously I’m have an addiction

@mrsgargada • 461d

Gaming started as a bond between my best friend and myself. We would spend hours laughing as we shot each other with paint balls in perfect dark and kicked butt in smash bros. Now, it’s a social bon...more

@shartbus • 462d

Getting a little heavy here, but: Home wasn't great growing up. Being able to immerse myself in a game helped to not have to listen to or pay attention to it, and certainly kept me out of trouble. ...more

@thunder • 476d

To relax...even though it has the opposite effect sometimes

@dorsalfin • 507d

It’s the perfect escape from everything. If your having a good or bad day you can just disappear into any game and just have fun or get mad depending on what game but it’s so addicting m. I don’...more

@daddymang • 561d

I like the escape. I used to like single-player story games and big open worlds, but the older I get, the more I appreciate co-op and the social side of competition, like fun tournaments and casting e...more

@bullboski • 564d

Because killing people in real life is illegal.

@froggy • 571d

It's social, it's challenging, it's competing against people at any moment, it's silly, it lets me turn my brain off, it makes me work hard and strategize, and it's fun.

@dosandres • 578d

It's just a hobby I picked up as a kid. I can go long periods of time without playing (2010-2014 may of been my longest) but its a good was to relax your mind and I believe by the time we are at retir...more

@whitethunder • 579d

It's the little free time I get and I couldn't think of a better way to spend it

@jedijohann • 581d

Gaming is a way for me to wind down at the end of the day.

@madnessdahlia • 605d

Because I love entering a world different from my own.

@mcitaly • 606d

Enjoyed it as a kid, then used it as a social tool as a teenager, and early adult. Used it as an adult for many reasons. Coping while dealing with a marriage that wasn't healthy, to spend time with ...more

@russdawg87 • 606d

It started as a way to escape being bullied. Then it grew into a way that I could connect with a whole new group of people. Then it was how I stayed connected to friends once we went to college, and m...more

@cknbromein • 610d

It’s where I meet my friends and hang with them. Weekends nights are my party night and I party with the boys on the battle bus. It’s a place for refuge and fun time. A place to laugh until I cry ...more

@thebrute07 • 614d

I can't really get into TV shows that much and gaming has always been a big part of my life especially gaming with people/friends. I love the challenge that games can bring and just the whole experien...more

@buddhastank • 614d

I enjoy great stories in games. Its kind of like when people read books, that they get sucked into it. Its a way to decompress and not focus on life as much.

@joob • 615d

I like to escape and be part of an interactive story in my single player games. Multiplayer - to socialize and satisfy my competitive side.

@alecshepard27 • 616d

I like to have fun with my friends and relax every now and then. When I need to get sweaty, I end up playing worse.

@blockmamba • 617d

I game to hang out with friends. It’s the reason I don’t play solos online. But I do the occasional single player game (Mario, Zelda, etc) to relax.

@enderphoenix • 618d

Getting to experience the vast amount of things games can offer that I would only ever dream of doing.

@notjosh • 619d

A nice escape from reality turned into meeting people from all around the world. @elrey said it perfectly, “I grew more and realized my gaming friends were closer to me than irl friends.”

@jsu • 619d

Always has been to be social. Hang out with friends who are miles away in a virtual setting.

@mase • 619d

For me it's a couple of things. One; I like the challenge and second it's the escape into a story. In my opinion way better than a book. I get to be the main character and follow most cases a wonde...more

@captainouterspace • 619d

It comes down to stories for me - I've always been the kid who wants to escape into a book or movie. With gaming, sometimes you're living through a complete narrative - like Last of Us, and sometimes ...more

@bayesic • 619d

Don't know if I have a good answer for this. Just something I've always done since pretty much the time I was able to pick up a controller. Plus it gives me opportunities to hang out with people from ...more

@dadalorian • 619d

Lots to put here but at the top is getting immersed in a game’s story (GTA V and RDR 2 come to mind) and finding new friends. I’m a total introvert and my idea of a night out is at home so it’s ...more

@l200ster • 619d

Does one ask why a bird flies?

@laughatbrian • 619d

For fun. For competition. For challenges. To relax. To be wowed and impressed. To kill time on the toilet. For stuff to talk to friends about.

@rusty6713 • 620d

To escape. For fun. To experience new stories. Occasionally to connect with others. To kill time. To scratch that itch of wonder.

@geodad • 620d

With the ability to transport into so many different worlds, from dodging a blue shell to discovering ancient relics there a no limits. The stories become so immersive I think it is arguably the best ...more

@bshutts • 620d

Getting lost in a good story, escaping reality, and meeting new people in the community.

@nanner • 620d

To get my mind off the real world for a little while. Stay in touch with friends. The competition. These are just a few reasons why.

@trashdoc16 • 620d

Because it's fun.

@rey • 620d

There were games in my home. They were fun. I kept playing. I grew up and loved the stories more than movies and TV shows. I grew more and realized my gaming friends were closer to me than irl friends...more

@bitzdad • 620d

When I first started playing video games, they weren't really seen as the "cool thing" to do. There was a nerd culture tied to it, and I embraced that. Similar to my favorite books, there is a true co...more

@alden • 620d

I've loved games for as long as I can remember. I've never been particularly competitive, but I treat games the way some treat books. I love getting to know the characters and playing them through the...more

@ohtwotwo • 620d

Honestly don't think there's enough characters. I used to play videogames for fun. I still play games for fun, but now I find myself playing videogames now for the socializing aspect, to have somethin...more

@seth • 620d

Because they are fun.

@qmoran87 • 620d

Fun, friends, and relaxation

@gargada • 620d

To forget the real world. To just zero everything out and forget about things.

@dan • 620d

I'll need 1,000,000 characters to even come close. Fun, stories, bonding, creativity, art, emotion, friendship, family. I've even repeatedly joked [but I'm serious] about how Tetris has helped me with...more
