I’ve spent more time staring at loading screens than talking to my own father, and I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled you more times than I’ve upgraded my phone. But like a hopeless romantic who keeps going back to the guy who’s clearly bad news, I always came back.
But this time, it’s for real.
In a few weeks, I’m going to be a dad. My gaming schedule is about to go from “whenever I want” to “maybe one match during nap time, if I’m lucky.” My wife, in an act of saintly mercy, granted me one last match. And it was terrible — classic you. Uptiered, one-shotted, and my team collapsed faster than popcorn in a microwave.
Yeah, that’s so you. Honestly, it’s better this way. Leaves no room for “just one more match.”
Thank you, Gaijin team, for thirteen years of highs and lows, for the patches and the headaches, for building a world that kept me coming back.
Engine’s off. Canopy’s closed. I’ve got a new game to learn now — it’s called “Fatherhood,” and I hear the tutorial is brutal.
Came in here expecting the usual ranting with rule breaking content and instead found something rather wholesome. Best of luck to you and your family (and congrats on soon becoming a father!). I hope to see you back in the future once life permits it :)
Yes and realization that you could spend this time with someone who matters hurts a lot.
Not saying people shouldnt play games at all. But when there is possibility its better to talk, go for fishing or play cards with your mother, father or smb else instead of those few battles. Because nobody is permanent.
pro nap tip.
Just rock that babysitter ( you know that chair version, not some random ) with your leg, and keep it next to a PC. You can now ragequit , and use newborn as excuse. "i need to feed the kid, change diaper etc.
And beware, you tought snail had your soul, it will change soon
Good luck and congratulations, I hope in the future you come back and teach/play with your children (I hope you don’t get banned for account sharing tho)
