for real DA2 helped me soo much. just that fiction that helps you confront things about yourself and come to terms with other things, and makes you feel so at home whenever you revisit it even through fanfic or art or w/e.
tbh !!!!!! i love da2 and games in general so much ahh thank you <3333
i wouldnāt have gotten back in touch with any of the things i was passionate about if i hadnāt gotten into video games. i wouldnāt have started writing again, or reading. i wouldnāt have made friends like i have now. i am in a constant state of self loathe but itās so much easier to handle now that i have something in which to put myself, now that i have something i can be passionate about.
and how is passion a bad thing? if the things i create make people smile or laugh or it spurs them to write as well - or draw, or make fanmixes, whatever - how is that a bad thing? if the things they make make other people happy, and those people go on to make other things, how is that a bad thing? people want to cry about it -Ā āyouāre doing too much, calm down, go outside, get a real life!!!ā except without people getting overpassionate with art, with writing, with film or music or games, you wouldnāt have a lot of the things you like.
thatās why i always feel gross when people roll their eyes and goĀ āgosh, go outsideā am i annoying? iām sorry about it, i am. but iām not just going to stop liking these things. they make me happy, they make me feel good. just because these things arenāt important to you doesnāt make them any less important at all.
