Sorry if this has been asked before.

Are you actually happy playing video games or is it just something you do to pass time because you have nothing else going on?

I think about this alot and two moments in my gaming life pop up. The day my parents bought me a console for Christmas ( a knockoff Famcom) and the day my mom brought home Monsters Inc the Ps1 game ( a decent movie game based only partly on the movie) Truly happy gaming moments.

I’ve had the odd giddy moment as an adult but nothing as powerful as those two moments in my childhood. What about you guys and girls?
