Gaming and Significant Others

I missed last month’s Round Table in the hustle and bustle of NaNoWriMo, which was about the impact of gaming on our current familial relationships. However, I did cover a bit of that in October’s post, so it’s time to move on to the next topic, which is how we envision the impact of games on our future familial relationships.

I want to preface this post by mentioning that, like most people who’ll be responding to this topic, I have no idea what kind of a family I’m going to have in my future. It could be that I’ll wind up a crazy witch living in a run-down shack surrounded by a swamp, who spends her days scaring away all the neighbourhood children. Which would be tons of fun, come to think of it. Or alternatively, I could marry a hunky fireman and have all his babies. Who knows? I also have no idea what my relationship to games will even be at that point. I could still be designing and programming them, or I could get sick and tired of it all and wind up travelling around the world while taking videos of myself dancing. The possibilities are endless!

But wait! There’s more…
