Playing video games is much more than a hobby. There's a fine line between passion and addiction. But for many, video games are primarily an increasingly expensive pleasure, as evidenced by the release of the Nintendo Switch 2 this Thursday, June 5, 2025. A gamer's life perfectly transcribed by this comic strip translated by us.
A comic strip for gamers who live their lives like in a video game
"A geek doesn't age, he levels up", "video games ruined my life... I have two left", "a geek is like a cat because he lives at night and doesn't have just one life", so many slogans for difficult-to-wear t-shirts that are still intended for gamers. And even if some are surprised to find one under the tree, in the absence of a Scorpio box, it must be admitted that these slogans still exaggerate a certain reality. While The Elder Scrolls players only have to read a book to increase their proficiency in eloquence or pilferage, real life is somewhat similar.

Here we go again today with a roundup of gamers, some of whom are trying to live their lives as if they were a video game.
Of course, while you can simply turn off your screen to stop your game, sleep remains an essential component of human life. And even if some try to divide their sleep time with the famous polyphasic sleep, stopping for a good eight hours is divine. Do you recognize yourself in this comic?
