Does anybody else sometimes get an extremely weird fluttery feeling when gaming?
#1
Sometimes, when i game, i get this weird fluttery feeling, like at the last levels of world of goo, or when i beat sonic adventure 2 battle (my first game), or when I do something really epic

Do you guys ever get this feeling?

When?

Fluttery feeling? World of Goo was hardly climactic.

Edit: Sonic Adventure 2 Battle was your first game? How old are you?

And ya, the music along with the fact that I beat it on the day it was released did it for me.

Im sure there were other fluttery occasions, but those come to mind (since im re DLing WOG again)

There's the "high" that you get. Same reason why people get addicted to gaming, and anything else.

During the climax or maybe completing a collection in game maybe and I wouldn't call it fluttery; but for me finishing a game brings me down. It's more of a depressed "it's over" for me. Same reason I have so many games sitting in their final chapters unfinished. Sort of hate myself when I beat games too fast because I like to draw out the experience over time to think about it kind of like how you get one episode of a TV show a week to enjoy a series versus grinding through the whole thing in one weekend. However, that drawing out often doesn't work out and I jump into something else leaving the former incomplete... and the cycle continues...

Although, I did have a nice feeling when I finally went back and beat Super Mario World, the first game I played (rather than observed) and really sucked at at the age of 6. Ironically, I went the path of Sega in terms of ownership, so it took a while to play it again; first via emulator, then the GBA port.

I feel like a hero after beating Pokemon Gold, but that's completely different from "fluttery".

Well, I passed out when I finally got to level 200 in Maple, but I'm pretty sure that was related to the 10 consecutive 20 hour days I shoved into getting there.

I generally got the same feeling during the final cases of the PW games, and I am during the 5th case of Miles Edgeworth: Ace Attorney. I know exactly what you mean.

Yeah. I feel sad after I finish a game where I put a lot of effort in. Sad [/color]

This guy is a true neet.

Anywho, I sometimes get it when it's something like a huge plot twist that gives some exciting gameplay. I also get it sometimes (although it is more of a nervous, anxious, or depressed feeling) when I pineapple up epicly or something bad happens. I know I got this when I beat a boss in metal gear solid 2, and followed that up by walking forward on a pipe, slipping on bird crap, and falling off the rig to my doom. Had to repeat the boss.

Not remotely. I took a week of vacation from work just to get it done because I was down to < 150 hours to 200 and at 4 hours a night that's a very long time, but over the course of a vacation, doable.
I even had time to go out to a celebration dinner with friends and see two movies before going back to the office.

I got this feeling when I got the best ranking on Metal Gear Solid 4. Only time for a video game, I think. It's happened many other times during life in general, though.

It's a feeling we call 'happiness'.

Just joking with you eos, but that's still pretty badass.

I get that feeling looking at the intro to kh:BBS and the International trailer to FFXIII. When playing FFX, pkmn SS reminds me of silver. kh2 secret ending and fm+. Any hard boss in TWEWY.

For some reason the only time that I got REALLY riled up during maplestory was during my ariant battle competition days. I got the chair 5 times ^^. When I was done and had to sleep it gave me a bit of a headache though Sad

I only feel a small variation of this whenever I kill a super boss. 'Cause it feels like I have mastered the game completely by killing the nastiest thing they could throw at me.

I get a fluttery feeling whenever I beat someone on Wi-Fi playing Yu-Gi-Oh! 2010 on the DS.

The last one-hundred fifty hours or so spent unlocking the stuff for that game was not by any means enjoyable.

Hence why I have so many games, unfinished, at the last boss, and right before the game ends. I just can't bring myself to beat these games, knowing that it'll be "over" once I do. I think i cried when I beat the first Golden Sun, I was so sad that there was no more me and Mia from that game.
