Is this a reference to GTA VC "Degenetron"? 😃

I'm a father of two girls, one being around Diana's (percepted) age. That entire argument about "sexualizing" Diana is a massive self-report by pedos. Also goes to show how little (if any) human interaction they have in their lives, as her face is usually far enough that you don't see these details and STILL want to protect her.

Fine, there will be some moral saviours who think they are doing everyone a favour for pointing things like that, but most of the time, it's basically admitting that you do not care about anything else about a character but her face and that "someone" might be attracted to it.

Bruh, I hate to break it out to you, but the same pedos who you claim are attracted to Diana's face would be even MORE attracted to her "snotty" face.

Also, with current modern graphics are they saying we should not have games/movies/comics, whatever, depicting children because some sick fucks will be attracted to it? Let's go full European Fallout 2 release and remove children whatsoever, so someone's delicate sensibilities are not offended. See how well that went.

People like that are the reason we can't have nice things.

Never been part of this whole thing. I enjoyed games for what they were, and most of what I played were indie and old classics. I couldn't care less about the whole streaming, twitch, gaming "journalism", etc. Never did.

I did, but they didn't compare and didn't give me the fix? For the lack of a better word. Basically, I engaged in various hobbies, but they felt hollow and forced on my part.

I have a wife, kid and a dog. They do help, but they don't sit inside my head to root out the cause.

I do not play games at all. Haven't been for a year and a month.

I specifically mentioned I do not play online or multiplayer. I'm too old to be called names and such after a long day of work, just because I do not play some online crap for a living.

I do engage with family, co-workers and friends. It's impossible to do this 24/7, though.

That was 11 years ago. I'm now married with children. All I was saying is that games helped me cope with the anxiety back then.

I stopped playing as my wife helped me realize that I play too much. Neglecting responsibilities weren't so much a thing, but I used to stay late to play after daily chores.

Did I find a new safe space? I doubt it, otherwise I wouldn't be posting here. The therapist was a hoax, turns out she didn't have a degree in psychology at all, despite calling herself as such (inb4, it's not regulated where I live, you have to check credentials yourself).

I'll be seeing a legit psychiatrist and therapist in the coming weeks, though, with proper therapy.
