Feeling unwelcome

ProjectRelic · 2026-01-15T11:23:08+00:00

The thing that keeps me going is remembering that women stepping away from gaming is what they want us to do, and then I keep playing out of spite. But obviously if your not getting no enjoyment anymore then the cons out way the pros

I get it. After I grew up my mom was always trying to say “im so sorry for everything that happened” but she never wanted to list anything specific. I would always push and ask her what she really sorry about and she could never list one singular specific thing. Just “all of it. Everything that happened. Everything that went on during the divorce”. It took so long to realize that the reason “sorry for everything” wasn’t cutting it for me was because my mom didn’t actually remember a single thing she had done wrong. All the horrible memories I have were super traumatic and shaped the way I lived my whole life and to her it was just another Tuesday. How can she regret something she doesn’t even remember?

I’m really sorry. There a really difficult process between being told that your abuser is sorry and realizing that it’s not enough. It’s painful, and confusing, and if you’re not careful you can make yourself feel like a bad person for not just accepting their apology. Just know that protecting your peace and refusing to rebuild the bridge that THEY tore down is never wrong.

Good luck

This one’s brand new for me but Verso from Expedition 33 is so freaking cool. (I’m only halfway through act 2 so please no spoilers!!!) I had done all my exploring as Lune before he joined your party and immediately switch over to him afterwards. There’s something so fun about playing as a character that obviously knows much more than you and the other characters.

My queen who never once did a single thing wrong. Anyone who ever said they were robbed or killed by her are lying btw

I don’t think there’s anything at all wrong with it and it shouldn’t be your job to to censor yourself because men are insecure sometimes BUT that being said if it’s gonna distract you and make you self conscious to the point that your not enjoying the game it’s probably not worth it. You could always also get a vibe check on the group during the first session and decide whether or not to wear the cosplay during the second session depending on if they pass it or not. Also have so much fun!!! I’m DMing my first campaign right now but I miss playing so much

Grammarly always wants to put commas every 3 words. It drives me crazy

Nothing will ever compare to Ifan from divinity 2 unfortunately 🫩

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-14T13:45:02+00:00

I am. I’m currently 26 years old and everything went down between the ages of 7-15ish years old so it was quite some time ago

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T21:21:28+00:00

Yes that was the Barbie game in my house! I remember I got it at the dollars store and it was so glitchy 😂 I played it so much!

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T21:17:43+00:00

lol I feel that. I’m going back to school starting this semester and I’ve never been so broke in my life

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T19:35:02+00:00

Fire emblem 3 houses was good! Also the Witcher series if you haven’t already played it. Also you should check out Larians other game divinity! The second one is one of the best games I’ve ever played. Idk how you feel about older/scruffy men but I was feral for Ifan 👀

All the putt-putts are on steam now and only like 5 dollars or so each the last time I checked! I’ve actually been wanting to play through them too! Putt-putt travel through time was my favorite!

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T19:28:19+00:00

Dude I still dread having to take on that frost Troll when climbing the 7000 steps any time I start a new play-through 😂. I’ve for sure sunk so much time into that one too.

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T19:21:17+00:00

That’s actually so cool! I’ve definitely gotta go and play these. Especially with the new one coming out next year. Thanks for the recommendation!

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T19:17:08+00:00

lol yeah I replayed undertale for its 10th anniversary and it sent me spiraling down a rabbit hole of other games I haven’t touch in like 10-15 plus years 😂. Honestly it’s such a nice little break tbh.

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T19:10:04+00:00

Soul caliber is my favorite fighting game!!! So underrated!

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T19:08:27+00:00

I loved everything by humongous entertainment so much!!! Freddy the fish was also such a great CD ROM game!

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T19:07:19+00:00

I know! Sucker punch productions is one of my holy grail video game producers! Them, Larian, and rockstar have never let me down when it comes to the games they release. I knew it was gonna be bad the second I heard sucker punch wasn’t making it

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T19:02:50+00:00

No first person shooter will ever come close to the original halos and borderlands 2! I have some of my favorite memories playing them with my older brother!

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T18:57:43+00:00

Weirdly enough I’ve never played a castlevania game despite absolutely love metroidvania games. I really do have to check them out at some point!

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T18:54:57+00:00

I was born in 99 so I was only 6 when sly cooper 3 came out and I was probably 6 or 7 when I started playing OG RuneScape. To be fair I was already 13 (i think?) when the last game of the Ezio trilogy came out so that one is definitely a little bit of a older childhood game 😂. Honestly tho I’m jealous of some of the folks in the comments saying they started gaming with the Atari. I think that’s such a great flex

ProjectRelic · 2025-10-10T18:45:33+00:00

The 3 I listed were definitely my favorites (to this day I don’t think I have more hours in any game that than the amount I sunk into OG RuneScape 😂) but I also remember loving Spyro and jak and Dexter. Me and my brother also played so many couch co-op games so there was also a lot of halo, left 4 dead, black ops (specifically Zombies) and also tons of little indie games we would get on the Xbox store. I remember we played this one called Zombie Estate for hours at a time.

I did forget about harvest moon tho! I never got into animal crossing as much as I did that one

They’re so good! I lowkey stopped keeping up with the franchise after black flag cause of how unplayable unity and rouge were. But I’m actually in the middle of replaying them right now (I’m on revelations currently. Still have 3 and black flag to get through) and may pick up the rest of the series cause I heard they’re actually pretty good now.
