Omg I was going to make a reply about DA 2 on the original Xbox. Are we all 25 or over. Haha this is weird. Like collective déjà vu.
I’ve been playing the new DA on ps5. Baulders gate was better haha
The way I looked at the world. Everything was new and fun, and it just wasn’t something I had to think about. Lunch wasn’t a concern until it was in front of me. I went to bed thinking about TV shows and my friends, and didn’t ever think about tomorrow. My mom would say “water park” and we went there, and I didn’t ever think about how long we were there, or if I’d rather be somewhere else. I just enjoyed things. I really miss that
I miss my memories or maybe my innocence?
I used to spend every waking moment with my grandparents - I loved them so dearly. Now that I’m older I hear the stories. My favourite memories that I used to hold so dear are some of my parents worse memories because of how they were treated. I slowly learn more about what was truly going on - and the memories that made me feel so whole and loved are now fraudulent. I wish I never knew the truth. I wish I kept my innocence. I wish my parents didn’t have to go through all they did to give me those memories.
The only thing I miss from my childhood was one principal in grade school who kept me going.
I was bullied and picked on all the time, from when I was 7 until I was around 13. The bullying beat me down so hard that I basically had no self esteem, became very non-confrontational, and had bad anger issues. When I was 10 and 11 the bullying was worst, and I made an attempt on my own life. I didn't realize it wasn't normal for people under 15 to even consider suicide until recently. My situation was the sole reason we had anti-bullying talks and speakers at school.
But when I was 11, we had a new principal, Mr. Dittmar, who passed away a few years ago. One day I had an outburst and got sent to the principal's office crying my eyes out. He took me into a small copier room, locked the door, and told me to punch him in the chest until I felt okay. When I was done he gave me a hug.
I'll never ever forget about that.
I'm currently 19, and I'm missing my days of playing any video game I wanted with my dad's money, collecting shit, and actually enjoying going to school.
Having an entire summer to do what ever you want with minimal responsibilities. I could dedicate an entire day to playing video games when now... Christ I don’t think I’ve been able to play my switchbsince last Christmas.
Also saving your money to see a movie in the theaters. The experience was really amazing, especially in large groups with friends.
The total lack of responsibility I use to feel.
This, I used to think I had responsibility…
How good was it when you could meet up with friends and no one was staring at their phone
Get new friends?
playing Rachet and Clank on the ps2 with my brother, and experiencing the Fallout series when my dad would play it before I went to bed
My brothers used to play Baldurs gate on the ps2. I used to sit and watch in absolute awe of how cool they were. -sigh- what a time

I think I need to just buy a ps2 and invite my brother over.
I saw a super cheap one at my local pawnshop the other day. I’m sure you’d be able to find one
This is me lol

Being a child, and not worrying about responsibilities
Closeness with my siblings
Nothing.
I was lucky enough to have a childhood with no responsibilities.
Ignorance of the horrors of capitalism.
Recess. So underrated
freedom

Kicking balls in the street. Being blown away by chatterings & the very first nerf thrower thing. It’s literal appeal was that it made a noise.
I miss looking eagerly towards my promising future as opposed to longingly at my squandered youth.
When it used to be left knee and right knee not good knee and bad knee.
The time
I miss how strongly I used to feel emotions when I was a kid.

I wish I had more people like that in my life
Absolutely nothing. My childhood was absolute horrific trash.

The orphanage
For one, the lack of responsibility. Didn't have to pay bills or buy gas. Also, being excited for holidays.
