I Got Out Of My Video Game Comfort Zone And Played 'Warzone,' And I Don't Regret It

I never liked joining the bandwagon when it comes to gaming but I am glad that I did.

I Got Out Of My Video Game Comfort Zone And Played 'Warzone,' And I Don't Regret It

I never liked playing popular games. Although I played "Call of Duty" for years, I thought battle royale games were overrated. However, since it was "Call of Duty," I thought I would give it a try. To this day, I never regret my decision to try it. Yet, I can't get over the fact that I am simply playing a game that is well received by gamers around the world. As of now, I am open to playing popular games in the future. I plan on trying games on the best sellers now and then. In the past, I tend to ignore them because I knew I could find better games.

I was not too fond of "Counter Strike" for years.


Another popular game that I was pressured to play was "Counter Strike." Now, I watch e-sports. Even though I don't play "Counter Strike" anymore, I still have an urge to come back. Nevertheless, "Warzone" mitigates this desire for now. Now, I am not afraid to get out of my comfort zone and play trending games. I also do this with music. I tend to ignore popular songs, but in the end, I listen to them anyway.


I decided to play the same games as my favorite streamers.


I think that the best aspect of "Warzone" is how the game is not competitive. Yes, "Warzone" does have e-sports, but it isn't as big as "Counter Strike." Also, the game is free, which makes it easier to play it on multiple systems. I consistently shift from PC to console gaming. The first game that I tested is "Warzone" because of this. I am so glad that my favorite streamers on Twitch and YouTube introduced me to the game. They certainly encouraged me to try it, and if it weren't for them, I would never have downloaded "Warzone." These streamers even got me to download "Minecraft" again!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
