Post if you came to this forum instead of playing a shmup

As in, you were thinking about playing some shmup, but then decided to browse here instead.
Guilty as charged here of course. And to think I wonder why I have no time to play games anymore :mrgreen:

I sit in front of the computer all day and I have a tendency to come here instead of doing work, not playing games, which is much worse.
Feedback will set you free.

I'm just so against the idea of getting up and walking into the living room to play Mushi Futari though. The 10 steps might kill me.

Guilty. I've been checking the forum a bit much today, shrugging off some more Raiden IV play (that I want to get in...!) but alas, I think I'm a bit tired for that. D:

Shmups are a niche genre, to feel part of a collective you often come here just to feel your not alone. I come here for the community more than anything, the last time I posted in the shmups section was 3 months ago. I honestly can't see what else there is to talk about on that section.

Totally. I should be trying to not suck at RSG, but I die in such pathetic ways at times that I give up and browse here.
Come check out my website, I guess. Random stuff I've worked on over the last two decades.

I haven't touched a shmup in almost two years.

either im here when im browsing the net on the laptop in the living room with the family or im upstairs playing shmups or indie games and ill pop in and out inbetween games.

But today im under the weather and cant really be arsed playing games and especially shmups since ive had (slight) blurred vision for the past 3hrs so no bullet hell for me, which is annoying as im really into trying to 1cc/1lc exceed BP atm so i can play the extra stage and im just about at a 1cc. :x

but genrally i really should be spending more time playing shmups and not chatting about them

...except that today is ma free day and I could play shmup instead of posting here. On the other hand, if I start playing something now the rest of the day is gone and I really have to "do stuff" at my place.

I don't have any shmups that I want to play right now. There's a ton of RPGs and other games coming out shortly so I'm not going to have time to browse, unless I discover a way to browse and play at the same time.

I'd rather just enjoy my browsing time before shit gets rusty.
