...you didn't ask your parents to help you through the hard parts when you were a kid.

The memories I have of asking my mom to get me through the asteroid field in the NES Star Wars game... I shall always cherish them.

Of course, nowadays she's the one who calls me and asks me how to get through whatever it is she's playing (Zelda, mostly)

My parents are bigoted as well, no way I could ever get them to help me on anything game related.

My parents were basically on the same level I was with games growing up, meaning they really couldn't help. If anything I knew more about the games and systems than they did after a short time.

So basically "You're not a REAL gamer if your parents weren't also gamers" is what I'm getting from this topic lol.

My parents are boomers man, there was no gaming help from them. I had to just keep trying until I got it, or after GameFaqs became a thing, looked up help.

You cheated not only the game, but yourself. You didn't grow. You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained. It's sad that you don't know the difference.

Literally this. Real gamers didnt have any help growing up, do you even know what it is to be a real gamer? What that entails if thats the essence of your identity? Yea I thought not.

This. Within the past couple years my dad reminded me how much he thinks less of my as a person for having played GTA. The only video game we ever played as a family was Mario Kart 64, and even then he once grounded me from it for six weeks for saying 'crap' during a race.
