Out of body videogame experiences? - Page 2

Detached from reality. Try playing 12+ hours a day for a couple of weeks and you will experience it all the time >.> And when you go away from the game you'll get anxious and wont calm down until you get back to it. When you start being "inside" the game I would recommend to stop playing ASAP. That's how you get addicted.

I've experienced it a lot.

Edit: If you're addicted to porn you can sit fapping and not noticing people coming into the room.

Not really...

I get into the game almost immediately but even so, I've never been "addicted" to any game really even though I've tried to get into things I like.

The two are unrelated. Maybe BECAUSE you get addicted you get into it easier, but not the other way around.

I hit "the zone" everytime i play 1v1 on gunz, it's weird, im not even pressing the keys anymore, i'm just automatically doing it.

Reality escaping is addictive if you're inclined to prefer it over the reality.

It's called. It's the reason why you jump and get scared when you play Doom 3. Its the reason why you try so hard not to get hurt when you play games. Immersion is what makes games fun, it's why we keep playing them

I think that may have happened to me once.
