If you play.
And how often do you play?
Do you get any benefits from it?

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Fortnite and Fall Guys
Red Dead Redemption 2
Grand Theft Auto 5
Honorable mention of Alien Isolation and Madden NFL 2024.
But I almost never, very rarely play, because I'm a busy guy.
I'm not sure about the future of GTA 6, because it's my understanding they're getting rid of comedy and doing a more serious straight-up game. Comedy was the heart of the GTA games. GTA started as a technical glitch. Originally called Race'n'Cheese, it was originally to be your ordinary racing game, but a technical bug caused the police to go crazy, and the developers Rockstar Games found the bug so funny that they changed the design of the game.

Was playing a fair bit of pvp FPS games over the years, (L4D2, Halo 3, Valorant, Overwatch, Modern Warfare/Warzone) but now I have decided to stop them all and don't plan on touching them again. Too addicting. In the case of Valorant/OW I went as far as deleting my entire account.
Single player games are more enjoyable. I enjoy short, linear games with strong atmosphere or story. Not generally into open world games or RPGs, with exceptions like Fire Emblem, Dark Souls 1 or STALKER. I enjoy the Resident Evil games immensely, as well as other horror games. The GOAT for me though is easily Dishonored, which I have put nearly 200 hours into.
Lately trying to get into some of the classics that I missed out on mostly (SNES and PS1 games) by way of emulation, which has come a loooooong way. Some games have even been straight up fan remade for the PC such as Silent Hill or Ocarina of Time.

Played the Resident Evil 2 remake and I've been hooked ever since 
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Is it because of the cut content?
FlexpertHamilton
Master Don Juan
No, it's just a completely different game. The classic RE games are better because of their atmosphere/ambience/soundtrack and they're more tense as well.

Noted. I'll check it out sometime soon.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

PM me if you want to know how to play it. There's an amazing Dolphin-based mod for the originals that have upscaled the textures with machine learning.

Buy an Xbox Series or a Ps5 (They are chump change for you) and download Fall Guys. Its very simple, the game only uses like 3 buttons. Look some gameplay trailers on Youtube, I think you could like it.
Its like the Squid Game Tv series but without the violence. A number of players get eliminated each round until the Last one standing wins the Crown. Its a lot of fun.
