    Hello RPErs,

     

    I wanted to bring to light a common issue that people may come across regardless of age while playing role playing games or even video games in general. This issue can impact everyone of us and can have negative effects to our real life. Such effects can range to losing priorities in real life, doing bad in school, performing bad at work, stress, loss interest in socializing with family and or friends in real life, physiological and mental negatives effects. These listed are only but a few negatives effects listed that can occur while we play videos games and or role play for long extensive periods with out breaks.

    As we embark into role playing and role playing MMOS we have to understand some negatives affects that role playing can have on you and your body. Let me explain:

    As we "role play" and pretend to be a different person on such platforms that are huge in role playing we often can lose track of who we are in real life. Dont worry i am here to help you understand good practices to keep you focused in real life while having fun in a role playing setting.  The following tips can help you keep your real life priorities and goals in order and allow you to have fun resting assure your mom wont yell at you cause you are failing school, or you boss at work is getting ready to fire you or your loved ones aren't getting to see you or issues managing time for your girlfriend or boyfriend.

    Lets Begin:
     

    TIME MANAGEMENT
    Time management is key for those  that are in school and or have a family to look after or even have a job that is time consuming. You must know when to play video games and when you need to stop to get some rest, cook dinner, do laundry etc. These daily life tasks and procedures are whats called your priorities.

    Remember when your mom told you to clean your room before you played outside or even hopped on your favorite video game? Well, that still applies when you become an adult or even if you are not one yet what your parents are saying is true. You must make sure you have completed your priorities before spending a long period of time on your favorite video game. Time management will allow for you to set schedules on when important priorities need to be completed, you can do the critical important tasks before you start gaming then complete some lesser important tasks after you're finishing your gaming session. Whats  important is to remember you are the one to set a schedule and maximize efficiency of your time spent. The goal is to knock out your important tasks for that day before gaming, then finish up tasks that aren't time sensitive after you're done gaming. Have good time management and  you'll be on your way to a pound for pound champion!!! Go get em tiger.
     

    PRIORITIES
    Ah, yes priorities. Those tasks you have to do because if you don't you could lose your job, not make rent, lose your girlfriend or even be late on appointments or even just become depressed when you lose track of priorities. Make sure before you have begun planning a good schedule for time management that you are fulfilling your priorities and these could be from a number of things that you have to complete in real life. Only you know what these are or if you are a minor and living with momma and pappa, ask them what are your priorities and listen to what is expected from you by your parents. Once you have established your priorities then you can begin ranking them from most important (must complete) to less important (can complete at will).

    HEALTH
    This one is a short one but make sure you are getting adequate sleep .... (4 hours a day is not adequate sleep who you kidding?) make sure you are keep yourself and your environment hygienic so germs do not effect you and get you seek. Make sure you are showering at least once a day (id recommend 2 times a day one in the morning and one at night). Make sure you are playing in a lit room so your eyes dont get damaged (some have more sensitive eyes and over time playing in a dark room can negatively impact your eyes, others however might not be affected, consult your eye doctor. I am no doctor so please make sure you are always consult your doctor about healthy choices not the internet. )

    Make sure you are getting from your desk and or area of gaming and stretch those muscles take a little walk, drinks some water. Also, please refrain from eating unhealthy snacks and or sugary drinks as these can cause health problems. A good habit i like to do is eat some carrots and or celery when i game. Or even have some fruits.(fruit juice choose is not recommended as these typically are high in sugar). Make sure you look away from your screen at a distant object to not stra in your eyes. If you feel lightheaded from gaming to long and or feel dizzy stop playing immediately and consult your physician.

    Lastly stay hydrated! WATER WATER WATER. one good thing about water while gaming its good for your body and while you drink lots of water it forces you to get up with frequent visits to the urinal. Hence making you active and keep your blood flowing.

    REAL LIFE YOU vs ONLINE ROLE PLAYING YOU
    Remember at the end of the day no matter if you are a criminal, serial killer, queen, king and or doctor or whatever you imagination takes you at the end of the day those are just fantasies. There is a real you in REAL LIFE that no one can replace. Be sure to remember no matter how good it feels to role play or negative it can get. remember that your virtual life is not a real life representation of who you are so don't be afraid to take risks in role playing, besides it about fantasy and make believe. always remember the real you from the online criminal you! (or whatever you like)

     

    Feel free to add to this and let us know what your good habits are while gaming long periods of time., Or even say hi. "We ","You", "Us" "The community" are all here to have fun and meet new friends in our most favorite way VIDEO GAMES!

    Thank You


     

    I don’t know if I agree with this because we all know that it is just a game. I doubt that it will make us do most of those things that you said. I mean u less your a little slow, you should know the difference between a video game and real life. I haven’t come across one person that thinks they are living in the video game. What you said in my opinion was just not the brightest thing you could have said. If you can link proof of multiple sources of well trusted sources than I would believe you but until then, I think your just full of it rigt now.

    There definetly will NOT be jets, planes, or helicopters. There will be "good ambulances and fire trucks."

     

    Also why are you just listing random vehicles, when almost all of these are confirmed. You're stating basic game mechanics that the devs have already stated will be there. 

     

    Im not trying to be rude or anything but can you please, PLEASE, check the forums and the about section before posting things

    Ok will do thanks for helpin me out. I’m not being sarcastic really. Now I won’t look so stupid

    Well you found "opinions" and not official things. In my opinion you should get a GTX 1060. On this part list; https://pcpartpicker.com/list/QGjk4C  Change maybe the I7700K to a I5 6 series and then also change the 3TB HDD to like 1 TB and you should be good with prices being under $1000.

    I am not in anyway saying this will be alright and is just a recommendation but you however will likely be ok playing Identity as these sort of specs will allow you to play GTA on high settings if not Max.

    I found a cyberpower gaming pc at bestbuy with all of the recommendations meeting but the graphics card is a and 580x. Is that good or should I try to get something better.
