Poll: Do you talk to yourself when you play games?

[bossfight1]

Yeah I do yeah he does SHUT UP I'M TALKING you always do the forum chatting BOO HOO.

 

[The_Waspman]

Can't deny that I do. I wont shout and scream or anything, but I will usually get snarky with some characters, especially enemies who proclaim I'm about to die. So yeah.

The only time I'm liable to swear is if I get snuck up on. In ME3 multiplayer for example, I turn around and there's a banshee behind me, I will simply go 'oh fuck!' before high tailing it the fuck out of there.

Probably a god job I don't have a mic then...

 

[ThePenguinKnight]

Not out loud, but I do mentally.

 

[deserteagleeye]

I couldn't help but yell at my TV when playing Eternal Sonata. Mostly because of the awkward and annoying cutscenes. I found out the plot of the whole story as soon as they said the word "mineral powder" and yet they go on and on explaining things that everyone with a brain found out 10 years ago.
Me:
To be fair I still don't know why certain things were happening toward the end but I didn't care as soon as it was over.
Just an example of games that make be say stuff to it.

 

[Whoatemysupper]

Oddly, only when other people are around. Maybe it's because I want them to know what I think of the current situation. I don't address myself or have full-on conversations back and forth though, it's more talking to the game as I'm sure most people on this tread do.

 

[Zen Toombs]

"SIT DOWN!"
"Why don't you die already?"
"Eat FIRE!"/"Have some fire!"
"I said SIT DOWN!"
"wait, what?"
"that.... was.... AWESOME!"

I guess I say a little bit.

 

[Gaiseric]

No. The only time I enjoy someone taking while playing a game is when I'm watching an LP.

My brothers do though. Unfortunately it mostly involves things like, "That's f**kin' stupid!" or "AAHHHHHHH!!!" when something doesn't go there way. And it isn't entertaining.

 

[Shoggoth2588]

Yes but I talk to myself constantly so it isn't that weird for me to talk to myself while gaming.

 

[Ignatz_Zwakh]

Me? I simply talk to myself all the time. It's rare for me to go longer than a few minutes without muttering to myself at the very least.

 

[uhddh]

I usually make off-hand comments about the characters and reply to their comments. If I do a second play through I basically break it down like unskippable would.

 

[Don Savik]

I like the idea that talking to yourself automatically means you're crazy.

Such a silly and archaic viewpoint. And these people that think you're crazy usually have no imagination of their own anyways, so maybe its a deep-seated jealousy.

 

[Eddie the head]

I talk to my self all the time.

 

[Vault101]

I do occasionally spout a "MOTHER FUCKER!" if somthing startles me

there was a part in ME3 when I actually said outloud "what the fuck are you DOING shepard?!"

[spoiler/] where trainor comes up to her cabin and shepards like "hey...wanna use the shower" and the whole thing feels like a set-up for a porno..and shepard just sitting there oblivios to the implication of letting trainor use her shower...[/spoiler]

 

[zehydra]

I used to when I played Morrowind back in the day

 

[StormShaun]

I did and still do, it makes me feel like the character...

or some poor bloke that got sent to said video game world.
Also I scream many things at the screen too.

and I have the small habit of talking to myself.

 

[Astoria]

I don't really talk to myself but I do talk to other characters in the game as if I was the person I'm controlling. I often end up making the character very sarcastic and stuck up. My dark elf in Skyrim for instance loves paying out guards when they get scared of dragons and rubs it in everyone's face that she's the dragonborn.

 

[Legomaniac91_v1legacy]

I do it all the time when playing "The Old Republic." Allow me to share some samples from my recent session.
*fighting a boss and I've almost killed him* 'Come on, come on, co-OH YOU'VE GOT TO BE SHITTING ME!! HE HAD 100 HEALTH LEFT!!!!!

*sneaking through "The Works" on Courasant, trying to avoid encounters* "don't see me, don't see me. Shit they saw me! SHIT all those guys saw me too!! WTF!!!

 

[SycoMantis91]

No, but I talk to other characters all the time. I was doing the same all day with the same game (finally beat it tonight, only got it a few days ago though). Pretty much responding as dickishly as I can because i know Shepard isn't going to do it himself.

 

[HHammond]

Yeah I do fairly regularly. I like to add my own little replies to bits of the cutscene, like a note of fondness to Tali or a badass quip to Garrus. Then there's other times where I like to add my own little cheesy one liners at bad guys or quote movies. For example, whilst playing Resident Evil 5, when trying to get a boss to open it's jaws and expose it's weak spot I would say "smile you son of a *****!" before shooting of my killing shot!... And this would happen several times until it was actually the killing shot.

 

[ChadSexington]

I do all the time, my sister says me playing Minecraft is hilarious. I sing songs to Skeletons about how I'm going to kill them, I sing sexy songs to sheep about how I'm gonna get them naked and every now and then she hears an AAARRRGH, AN EXPLODING DICK MONSTER FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.

Also when I was playing Morrowind I'd narrate. "The mighty Nerevarine charges into the room, slaying all of his opponents. He then realizes that he took some damage in the fighting so the mighty Nerevarine then proceeds to daringly take a nap in the enemy stronghold."
