GG saved my life

Hi people. I was always a gamer since my childhood. But i was never a fighting game guy. Yes, ive played Tekken 2 and also soul calibur 2 and 3. But ive always played with my friends, never really played online and never played on a tournment.

One year ago i was facing a great depression, i lost my job and i was struggling to get by. I got another job ( that i didnt like but i need to have money to play the bills) and in september last year one of my friends borrowed me her PlayStation 4. She moved abroad wich was sad, but i got her ps4 (i only had a PS3, i was so broke i couldnt get a ps4).

I played great games with it and at some point i thought "what if i played a fighting game?" I wanted an anime fighting game so i made my research and found Strive

I started playing and man i was so bad lol i made my placement matches to the online mode and i Lost all 10 of them so i was put in iron 1 lol

Since then i climbed very slowly the ladder, 10 months later Im diamond 2 and my goal is to get to vanquisher.

I thought about making this post about shitting on Johnny. Hes the most carried character ever. Fuck you mist finer. But really this post is about how i worked on myself out of a depression. How playing this game made me rage, but at the same time made me look into myself everytime ive failed and find a way to get better. Whining is easy, but i tried my best to get better and i did it. And i did it with my personal life too because of this game.

Yeah fuck Johnny but above all, thanks you guilty gear Strive for saving my life.

I would like for people to Share stories like this if you have them.

This is bullshit blaxing, but its a great blaxing nonetheless
