I'm 19 and I'm about to head into my second year of uni, and I'm relatively confident playing in public so long as the situation doesn't inconvenience anyone around me. I'm really quite antisocial and don't like having to speak with my classmates when I'm not in class, so I like to bring my 3DS and just sit around campus playing it in my spare time.
Now, I don't care that people might look at me and comment that it's a bit childish that I'm playing Pokemon, but it's due to the fact that I am a grill :^) I get a bit anxious about being seen playing in public. Not to toot my own horn but I am certainly not unattractive, so it's a little worrying to think that some people might see it as me trying to be a gamer gurl!! xD :3
The last thing I want is for people to see me and think I'm only playing to get attention, because nothing grinds my gears more than girls who desperately scramble to show off how "cool" and "interesting" they are because they're into video games. My university is full of people like that, and it's frustrating to see them getting praised for just literally being interested in something.
But, in contrast to what some people have been saying:
I'm actually just waiting for some qt3.14 to talk to me about Pokemon. It really is the greatest ice breaker for me personally. I'd really love to meet some people IRL who play too, tfw no Pokefriends ;____;
