10 Video Games To Play While Self-Isolating
The power of video games comes through once again.
The stay at home mentality isn't really a notion gamers are unfamiliar with. Quite frankly, a lot of the time, outside is a bit too much for the average gamer to put up with. Not only are people literally everywhere but they also want to engage in conversation, physical interaction and even prejudice of your very appearance.
Nope, nope, do not want. Categorically not. 100% not happy with what is being asked, and there are plenty of worlds, characters and other things I'd rather be doing.
So, if an enforced way of life is to occur, every member of the human race needs something to do in order to stave off 'cabin fever'.
We've all seen the movies and they can end pretty badly for the characters, so the last thing anyone needs is to be isolated indoors with nothing to do.
Hell, we might all become chess masters and finally defeat the Russian supercomputer that has oppressed the world's greatest players for so long, but if not, at least you'll have some alternatives.
10. Football Manager
If anyone ever thought they had 'time to kill', they lost every single second of it to Football Manager. The origin of thousands of people claiming they could play 'one more game' before they went to bed and realising some six hours later that their sleep pattern was now dictated by taking Luton Town to Champion's League glory.
Maybe some are resistant enough to think that they don't need to get to the next transfer window before they close the lid on their laptop but these thoughts belong to the casual player who doesn't even save before EVERY game just in case they could be convinced to 'Save Scum' their way to football's premier prizes.
If you've ever wiped drool off your laptop's trackpad then you know full well that Football Manager brings even the sturdiest minds to its metaphorical knees.
Hours, days, weeks, months all pass in seconds in-game, and you'll soon realise that real time passes just as quickly.
