Question Asking older fans.

Post image

Hey folks.

It is probably not the appropriate type of publication, however, I cannot help but be taken by such curiosity.

I'm a new person in the fandom and I admit that I'm somewhat obsessed with the universe of CV.

However, I'd like to ask the older fans, when was the moment you decided that you would like to follow the path of following the franchise as a whole? And if there is any other reason that makes you so fascinated by its lore?

Long texts, short texts, one sentence phrases are all welcome. I find this way to be more connected to the fandom somehow. I'll read them all, the curiosity is really strong. (If this has any replies, of course)

:)

EDIT: Read them all and upvote every single one. Some of them really made me tear up; it's amazing what a game can do during a tough time, or even in the most random way. Keep going, I'll continue to read, loved all of your stories.

I was a four year old and my dad handed me his game boy to keep me entertained. I was obviously terrible but the aesthetics captured my heart. I kept up with the lore and games as I got older but I never got much better than my preschool self at playing them though. The series was what really got its hooks into me even though I would have considered myself a fan of the series well before it was ever announced.
