I upvote every single one that comes across my feed. I don’t comment on them all, but our friend Atticus has absolutely inspired me to stop doom scrolling and pick up a controller. So many times I’ve found myself enjoying the game a lot more than I thought I would because I decided to just play
And they’ve turned me on to games I’ve previously written off as “not my thing.” Also the engagement in the comments too has been really awesome; I’ve learned a lot about games I’ve played and even completed before
I know they’ve got a lot going on, but through these posts what I’ve gleaned is they have a good friend group who also games. I’m thrilled to see these posts but I know I’ll be a little sad if they trail off. Which is alright, they have no obligation to us, but it makes me happy seeing someone having a good life with friends, and exposing me to awesome games and moments within them
So to echo the above poster, thank you :)

It makes me happy to see me inspiring others to pick things up. It’s something i always hope to do when I post these.
I know things are rough right now for a lot of people, both socially or even just mentally, but even just giving people suggestions of things to try that may be within their options (like older games they may not have known exist) is something I’d like to do (though I bet it’s probably a bit weird to hear me say because I play a bunch of newer-ish games).
I’m not really sure what the point is I’m trying to make, but im happy too motivate people to try new things.
You are right about my friends too. I probably don’t give them nearly enough credit but they’re a large reason I’ve managed to keep from getting into a slump myself. Even just waking up in the morning and seeing someone say “Hey, you guys free for Halo?” or saying “anyone want to hop onto Zomboid tonight?” really brightens my day and helps me feel a little less alone or burnt out. I doubt any of them will see this (and I’m going to go tell them I appreciate them after this) but they’re definitely an unspoken motivator for me
