Habits You Got From Video Games?

[Benj17]

killing people then stealing their clothes and fruit

oh oblivion :')

 

[Doc Cannon]

Yeah, Assassin's Creed II is so immersive you can't help but do this. I personally find myself looking longingly at bell-towers and steeples- not for architectural value, but for footholds...

Holy shit, that makes two of us.

 

[ascorbius]

I quicksave before doing anything dangerous.

And shout STEN!! if I think I'm gonna get my ass kicked..



..honestly, they're just games.. they don't affect behavior. (quicksaves before flames arrive)

 

[Red Bomb]

I have chinook's going over where I live all the time and I always immediatly think 'friend or foe' and hit the deck. I cant help it, too much COD4 :/

 

[Stewie9007]

I've been hitting punching bags like batman lately like in arkham asylum

 

[jultub]

When I look for something in my room (which is quite messy) my fingers sometimes flinches into the "ctrl + f" position, which must look really weird if someone sees me, luckily I've avoided detection so far

 

[Iznat]

When I go to type, my hand will automatically go to WASD as opposed to ASDF.

...That's about it. Huh.

 

[TurkeyProphet]

After playing a lot of Age of Empires I'd actually find situation in life where I'd be thinking, time to load and try again.

Also after playing Metal Gear Solid for a long spell I'd sneak to a lot of places and avoid making too much noise.

On a non-gamer note, I often find myself trying to Ctrl+F documents I have to read in class.

 

[ChocoFace]

People might normaly do this but I now make a habit of making sure that the door is always closed behind me. I have also quoted Warcraft 3 sometimes.

Locking the door is common sense, isn't it?
(also Karthus' ulti is gay)

can't think of an actual habit i got from playing games, though.
Oh, maybe tapping my fingers really fast sometimes, when bored (Guitar Hero).

 

[Maibus]

I find that if I'm in public and standing still for a period of time I start to fidget like a character would, even do it when I sit down.

 

[Ninjamedic]

I developed pyromania...........
.........what?

 

[KrakFoxx]

Every time I come off an RPG after playing for ages, it takes me a few minutes to remember that the people I am talking to aren't scripted and I'm not restricted to dialogue selections... I kinda look downwards for the choices...probably not healthy...

 

[KiruTheMant]

I often start to mutter Ha- when punching something,Like a hadouken ._.

 

[Wintermoot]

I developed pyromania...........
.........what?

toasty!
OP
looking for a "F" key when heading somewhere dark
and I once woke up with a FO3 HUd after playing FO3 for nearly a day it also displeyed a message something with Fallout 3 in it

 

[qaztim]

silent hill made me memorize anything super fast and im really paranoid damn you Silent hill 3.
huming game tunes, quoting lines from games,i played yo much persona 4 so whenever i learn a friends secret i think SOCIAL LINK LV * Reached

 

[Wintermoot]

Being immune to Caffeine
Long hours of World of Warcraft and Left for dead kinda pushed that along

Being able to drink four monsters and immediately go to sleep..is not a good thing

maybe you should switch to cafaeine peelz

 

[Skobvs]

Also, while not entirely game related, I have a habit of tapping my Thumb and End fingers to a beat.. sometimes to a theme from a game, usually when I'm impatient or waiting for a map to load.

I do that very often, ever since I started gaming I can't keep my fingers still for more then a minute.

 

[Buizel91]

I eat cockroach meat, mole and rat meat, iguana's on sticks, iguana stew, my repair and sneak skills have increased and im sort of a Gun Nut now =\

on a serious note im more paranoid in dark area's were i cant see anything, and im very persuasive in certain situations. =)

 

[Silver_Shade]

When I go to type, my hand will automatically go to WASD as opposed to ASDF.

I do this as well.

Playing too many RPGs has left me with a habit of attempting to press the 'M' key whenever I feel lost. I've also started sarcastically muttering "This should be easy enough" when I have to do something I don't want to do.

 

[QuickDEMOL1SHER]

Before making a big decision I often find myself trying to save so if I don't like the outcome I can go back.
