The role of q2 in your lives.
« on: May 15, 2006, 03:52:40 AM »
Sit down, take a deep breath, and take a look back at the last few (1-8) years.
How did q2 affect you as a person?
How did it affect your lives?
How did it affect your friends and relatives?
Before you answer, please write how old you are and which years of your life you have devoted to q2.

As for me, the more I think about it, the more I come to the realization that q2 was by far the worst thing that has ever happened to me.

Playing Q2 is fun.  I think of it as an alternative to television.  It's just a form of entertainment.  Are you upset because of all the TV shows you missed while you were playing Q2?  No.

Sure I'd like to play a little less, but something about the game seems to be addictive.

I'm not upset because of the missed tv shows - I download them all anyway.
What scares me is a thought that I could've been a better person, had I never touched it.
What scares me even more, is the possibility that it hasn't  changed me as much as I'm hoping it has, but simply brought up the bad features I had already posessed.
And then, of course, there is all this time wasted. It's hard to tell whether I would've wasted it on something else anyway, or done something productive for a change, but the fact is - it's gone.

For soso q2 is his life even tho ive only seen him play like 2 games, the other 1000 he sits in observer and talks shit to people he could never beat.

as for the majority of q2 players (i hope), we see this as a GAME.. a form of entertainment.

Someone get this kid a life  :please:

Yes, I realize this is something you would really like to believe.

I am not available, Tranny.

well stated old blevins,  ;)

met some really great ppl, met some real assholes. I do acknowledge the fact that I have spent waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much time in front of my 'puter... Q2 makes me laugh, but it never made me cry.
I guess that will be my slogan...

"Q2, it never made me cry."

I do think about the time - days and days of fragging... very fun, was it wasted?

tranny, no one is listening anymore - go away

Q2 was the first real multiplayer game I could get a handle on.Before that it was Quake 1  played on a 28.8 modem ,and without the Monster 3d video card(with a whole 4 megs of video ram!) I bought later,it was butt ugly and things moved too fast to follow.Quake 2 had a slower pace,bigger maps,and lots of customizations to play around with. For years,I'd come home from a hard night of stocking shelves,roll a big joint as my coffee brewed,and blast away at the world until it was lunch-ordering time.And I'm VERY happy to have this Tastyspleen community still keeping the game alive and interesting.

There are newer games out there,but few match Quake 2 for sustained fun.I guess its things from the single player part available in multiplayer that does it for me:power shields and ammo packs and silencers that add that touch more strategy to the mix.And few games can match the super shotgun and none can touch the feel of the rail.Keep your World War 2 clones and your Counterstrike wannabes.I'll keep playing Quake 2 as long as these servers exist.

How did q2 affect you as a person?
How did it affect your lives?
How did it affect your friends and relatives?
Before you answer, please write how old you are and which years of your life you have devoted to q2.

As for me, the more I think about it, the more I come to the realization that q2 was by far the worst thing that has ever happened to me.

I'm fifteen, I've devoted on around 10 months to Q2, about 6 to TDM and 1v1.

Q2 Has made me slightly more antisocial, I admit that, but when I play it makes me a happier guy, because it's fun (good for the reflexes too! haha)
It has actually made my school work fail a little, not to the point where its worrying but now I cant sleep any earlier past midnight due to Q2, I dont mind.
It really has not affected relatives, sometimes i've told friends I cant come out, because i've had an nadml match or something.
I guess if I didnt play q2, my grades would be better,  but id be unhappy if I had to quit now, so it would have a knock on effect and make me unhappy and unwilling to work anyway.
