  • Agreed with everything you say, and I don’t have any solutions you haven’t said. I would like to add, buy your nephews, cousins, kids, students, etc physical games. Buy them the games they want, too, not just the ones that you think they should have. Get them used to going to the store to look at games and game boxes. Take them to the retro game store and let them pick something out. Encourage gaming to be more than passive consumption, and try to instill more positive associations with ownership. Avoid lecturing, or trying to create negative associations with digital or subscription products, and just help them share in your passion, it’ll take you a long way.

    I felt like I was riding in an on rails open top vehicle through a like, society made up out of pulsating fractals. I remember going under an arch, and on top of the arch were beings also made of light and pulsating fractals, and they looked at me and spoke and fractals spilled out of their mouths.

    After I got through the arch, I heard this sound like… a torn speaker driver crackling as it plays, and the sound got louder until it was like a stampede of Buffalo engulfing everything that is. I felt my eyes open as if they were always closed, and around me I saw sand in all directions. I became scared. I remember thinking, what if I can’t come back from here? And suddenly it was like I was sucked backwards through reality and deposited back into my body.

    My friend who was with me and also under the influence said he saw arrows embossed on my skin pointing up towards my head, and then I became invisible for a moment, completely unseen. As quickly as I left, I returned. And we had an interesting conversation after.
