I played Overwatch all night on LSD

okay...?

You can not seriously think that everybody you recommend drugs to will use them carefully and know what they do.
Drugs have ruined way too many lives, torn families apart and caused wars. Not everyone is able to use drugs as responsible as you seem to do.

So true. The same could be said for many many things. I'm pretty responsible
 
The Baconator is more hazardous to society's health than pretty much any drug mentioned in this thread. You should direct your smug self-righteousness towards something legitimately problematic.

Your response has nothing to do with mine but - What is the Baconator?
 
Journey on Molly: what I expected to be a revelation turned out to be a discomforting time. I love that game. On the drug, the implied freedom felt false and canned. I felt stuck in the environment. The momentum of sliding around was as joyous as can be, however.

Witcher 2 on Acid: played a few minutes of that Flotsam level. The greens of the forest were really incredible. The bloom effects had a breathing pattern and would swell and contract. Really, really beautiful stuff. I remember wishing I could see the visuals that way again the following day.

Resident Evil 4 on speed: wow! Just the best. The liquid pace of that game mixed with the drug was great. Didn't feel like a game. Rather, a series of natural laws guiding me along. Completely lost track of time.
 
In a medium with a lot of underaged people his view is valid. It should not be advised as a recommendable thing to do.

But that's just my view, right.

I wasn't aware this was meant to be a PG-13 forum... In terms of lewd gaf topics, this seems like a silly place to draw the line.

On topic: never done anything aside from alcohol and weed but Abzu is awesome.

But that's just my view, right.
An aside: I think the discussion here is hardly promotional. And the drugs discussed (perhaps minus alcohol) are all consciousness-expanding and have potential to enrich one's thoughts. Now that's me advising!
 
Responsible drug usage? That's new to me.

Call me a square, I don't care. I consider myself pretty open minded to a lot of things, but drugs usage is not a responsible entertainment.

Also, I don't see a problem if someone uses drugs. I'd recommend not to, but to each their own. What I don't like is to see people singing out loud how cool it is... Cause it's not.

If you drink and you're stating what you've said in bold, I have zero respect.



I've gone through all my professional life being a casual weed smoker (vaper), and I could rant about this all day because it absolutely boils my blood these days.

I agree. Not a drinker or drug user but its funny people taking the high road when they drink alcohol and denounce drugs that are comparatively much less harmful.
 
I've only done Destiny while high on Monster. Also semi drunk, which goes fairly well for dealing with how shitty Crucible could be and not throwing the controller.
 
I generally play games while inebriated, so every day is a good time.
 
Wow... Had no idea there is so many drug users here and its so ok to talk about them. Sounds like people are even proud when they talk about their experiences.

The criminalisation and cultural rejection of drugs was fasttracked in the early 20th century for various (arguably problematic) reasons, by a political few, and with little scientific basis. Of course, drugs can do damage, but so can anything! Heart disease and cancer are the number one cause of death in the developed world, and you can thank the hypermarketed and hyper-profit-chasing food industry for that. Illegal drugs are fucking toytown in comparison.

And in recent years decriminalisation and/or legalisation has proved the safest way to deal with them. Decriminalisation and/or legalisation eliminates the only truly problematic thing about mind-altering drugs – organised crime.

Drugs have ruined way too many lives, torn families apart and caused wars.

While alcolohol, over-the-counter drugs, and fast/high-SSF foods haven't?

Resident Evil 4 on speed: wow! Just the best. The liquid pace of that game mixed with the drug was great. Didn't feel like a game. Rather, a series of natural laws guiding me along. Completely lost track of time.

That's incredible lol

Not a huge speed fan, though

I played Freespace 2 on mushrooms and I cried

But again, even if I did I wouldn't say I drink responsibly. I could drink moderatly, what's different.

You're really confusing ITT, Kssio. So you're saying taking anything 'responsibly' is impossible? There's just moderation or abuse, basically? (Hint: drinking moderately is drinking responsibly. Taking a drug like MDMA in moderation, for instance, is taking it responsibly. I take it once a year and have a wonderful time, with safe sources, and it is no-strings-attached life-changing times.)

Also, again:

Why some people say that alcohol is worse than drugs so therefore drugs are ok? I have listened to this even outside this forum

First of all i dont see the people that are against drugs defending alcohol, everyone knows that alcohol used wrong and irresponsible can lead even to death, i lost a uncle this way, but one can also argue that alcohol on a low and dosage has actually benefits (do some research if you dont believe me)

My point is, its not because alcohol and cigar are very dangerous, that some should use that as a argument to promote drugs because they are unfairly seen by society and are actually good. They are not, both legal and illegal drugs have the potential to destroy lives.

so its not something you should be promoting saying how cool it is, because you dont know if some person who reads this decide to try it and use it all wrong and start ruining his life, not everyone can just use it at "safe levels" and call it a day.
 
I played through Shadow of the Colossus at launch while tripping balls.

My best match of Unreal Tournament ever was while shrooming.

But my go-to for many years was Super Mario Bros 2, with the sound off, and Aphex Twin's "Selected Ambient Works Vol 2" playing instead. It's surreal as fuck.

Sotc while high is actually an incredibly sad and desolate experience. Great game, must be sober though

Dota stoned is the best :D
 
but one can also argue that alcohol on a low and dosage has actually benefits (do some research if you dont believe me)
There is no safe level of alcohol consumption and I know what "research" you are referring to.
https://www.theguardian.com/science/2011/mar/07/safe-level-alcohol-consumption

Cannabis however has many proven medical applications that greatly enhanced people's lives. LSD too has been shown to have many promising applications in mental health such as in treating depression. Here's some work that was done recently by my universityou

http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/newsandeventspggrp/imperialcollege/newssummary/news_11-4-2016-17-21-2

These drugs can be used responsibly in the same way people "responsibly" drink. Although education beforehand Is needed as of course they are not for everyone and while largely safe some people can be predisposed to react very negatively to psychoactive drugs like lsd etc if you have anot underlying mental health disorder, that you may not even be aware of.

Except that I don't drink either.


Anyway, I'm not here to battle against drug users that are trying to convince that drugs are not an issue. As I said, to each their own. The message I wanted to send (that drug usage is not cool and not something people should glorify and even less recommend, and many people ruin their lives in it) was already said by me and many others.

If the thread is still going, it's probably because the mods allowed.

That's okay, but if kids are obviously on here, they have no problem seeing other things on the internet. This thread is harmless in that regard and nobody even glorifies drugs in here that much.

Experimenting with drugs is okay. There are also way more weed smokers near you then you might know because people just don't talk because it is illegal.

And people should recommend some experiences - no harm there.
 
I smoke weed almost on a daily basis in very low doses, well nothing compared to my high school years. :P

I just love the feeling it gives me, takes me off the hook of a long day at the office/cleaning everything up at my place and puts me in the mindset to do some gaming. I don't drink and after seeing my dad getting fat with his beer stomach over my younger years doesn't encourage me to drink anyways.

It must have been a decade since I did shrooms and I don't know if I'd go back to it...probably one day! I remember watching a friend playing GTA Vice City on shrooms and he was stabbing everyone in the game and I saw it going in fast-forward speed, cray-days.

Never actually did LSD, dunno if I will though, sounds intense. o_o

Wow... Had no idea there is so many drug users here and its so ok to talk about them. Sounds like people are even proud when they talk about their experiences.

IDK man, I don't feel shame about smoking every now and then, hurts nobody. :)
 
Playing Driveclub blazed feels like I'm actually there in the cockpit. It's terrifyingly exciting.

TLoU Multiplayer is awesome high too. Feels like you're fighting for your life, and if you're the last man standing it's fucking intense.
 
Me and one of my friends tried to play Kirby's Epic Yarn on acid once, it didn't work. Past not being able to operate the controls the game made me feel really uncomfortable for some reason. I think it was due to the fact that not being able to play a videogame properly heightened the disassociative effects of LSD and I started feeling really out of body in a bad way. That's usually the roughest part of doing acid imo, being in an environment where you have to do normal activities and find yourself unable to. Huge source of anxiety for me and will immediately turn a good trip into a bad one. I don't recommend it.

On the other end of things I got my wisdom teeth taken out around the time Killzone 2 came out. I came home still pretty fucked up from the anesthetic and started playing, all I really remember is spending a lot of time staring at walls and saying something to the effect of "the graphics look SO real" over and over again. I woke up a few hours later and was still in the same spot I started at.
 
I played Doom16 on acid. It was really intense, the colors from the game seemed to be coming out of the tv and I was really into each kill like my own life depended on it. I also spent 3 hours looking at the bottom of my in ground pool. It has a multi color LED light that does various light shows. Just sat there with my head dangling over the edge while listening to music. I swear each change of colors was matched up perfectly.
 
I actually play SFV a little better when I've had a few drinks. Not totally drunk but with a good buzz.

There's a bar at the local here and I found out that while drinking while playing doesn't do me so well, if I finish a beer and I play about 10 minutes after I do pretty well, like when my body's 'leaning off' the alcohol.

Also if you play against me and I'm drinking, just use Dhalsim because my drunk brain cannot comprehend that matchup.

Key word bolded...

The point is RESPONSIBLE Drug Use... just like RESPONSIBLE Alcohol and Tobacco use is indeed a thing. people can abuse lots of things... doesnt make them bad. and not all drugs are illegal everywhere... so if taking, say, Shrooms is Legal in places just like Alcohol... whats the problem with discussing how fun Responsible Drug use is?

Dont abuse it and there wont be a problem... just like Alcohol... just like gambling... just like eSports.
 
Dunno about playing this on LSD but feels like their server need a boost, get some of that cocaine in its system? What the fuck is up with this game? It's so fucking unstable it feels like F2P trash.

Disconnecting left & right and doesn't even track your stats if you don't finish up a game (as in you don't get xp). Fucking 10 matches average to get a level and your carrot lootbox, it is sometimes infuriating when you're having fun and doing well and the game shits on you.

Exactly! Doctors themselves will freely prescribe medication such as opiates to the majority of people without even considering the addiction/overdose aspect. I've spent the last 10 years addicted to painkillers prescribed by my doctor and had a hell of a time coming off them. However I switched to smoking weed for pain management and my quality of life has massively improved as I can control my chronic pain with no side effects or withdrawal when I choose to stop smoking.

Plus my Rocket League game seems to improve 10 fold when high!

Stop ranting and jnform yourself. It is getting ddosed by the whinny Hackers that got banned these past days.
 
the day that mario kart 8 came out me and a friend tried 25i and had a blast playing it

dang... my time with Research Chemicals back before they were outlawed and i never got around to 25i... did play with the 5-MEO's though.. AMT, DMT and DiPT... all very different... all very interesting/fun. (AMT was literally a 14-16hour candy-flip... Started that at home playing Rez... for a few hours hopped on a rave bus to a forest rave... then topped the night/morning off back at home wandering the suburbs with friends... very very fun.)
 
Want to know how I know drugs are bad? You will be arrested if caught.


It really is that simple folks. If you can goto jail for doing it, it is bad. And do you really want to wear the title of "habitual drug user" anyway? Not cool.

Illegal does not equal bad. What a bizarre mindset.
 
I smoke alot of weed, good thing its legal here in Washington. I have to say my favorite game to play when high is Resogun. Such an incredible game. I finally stopped playing for a while, after playing for almost a year and a half straight, almost every day. Hit 1 Billion in Protector mode, screamed like a little girl, then jumped up and down. EPIC.

Resogun is also super crazy banana sandwich on mushrooms. I can't play for shit, but it sure looks bad ass.

Destiny on LSD literally made me feel like I was looking into a window of another universe. It was bonkers. I just kept saying how real it looked lol.

I find that when I drink, I do not care for playing games anymore, I love watching movies and listening to music. I used to love drinking and playing games, I did it all the time. And then it just stopped being fun. So I don't do it. Plus, I would much rather smoke than drink, and I have found that since I have been smoking weed, I really have little desire to drink. I still love a good beer when I go out, as I have always been a beer guy, but I dont really bring any home with me anymore.

So was sitting at the front of the bus if you weren't white

Wait where the fuck am I going with this

Point is stupid post is dum

I don't know about other places in the world but where I am (Canada) I have friends that got caught smoking weed and all the cops did was taking the weed away or even just tell you to smoke your shit elsewhere. If you're a pusher that's another story because organised crime yada yada...in any case it's going to be legal here in the next years.

Weed is taken too seriously by some, while I wouldn't recommend driving on it or doing anything putting other people lives on your shoulders, it's not as big of a deal as some people seem to think it is. I mean, I'm a grown ass man with a steady, well paid office job and a GF, when it's getting late or when I spend some good times with old friends,I/we go smoke one or two puffs and it's quite relaxing.

I guess the key word in my case is moderation, because never in my life I felt like it lessened my abilities or performances in the everyday life. I feel like I could stop anytime but stopping by itself wouldn't bring much to me except killing one of the only little guilty pleasures I have along with being a little more stressed or having a harder time going to bed...AND being less impressed when I play games that look crazy-good on PS4!:P

This is what you all don't understand. Drugs are illegal. If you continue to do them and get caught? You. Are. Going. To. Jail.

Unless they legalize them that is.. in which case that means drugs are good. Right now tho? They are bad.
 
I've played games drunk, a lot. Diablo 3 multiplayer being the biggest culprit, when it first launched on PC with a group of friends over Skype. Good times those were. :)

I think it robs you of experiencing the game to its fullest to be honest, but to each his own.

So if in my country many drugs are legal, drugs are good?
And beer is bad because in some countries you can go to jail for it?

You're going to jail for smoking a couple joints? Taking a few tabs or picking and eating a few shrooms? I don't think so.
