I have nephews who game and use google hang outs to video chat each other. If I had my own kids that game as they do, I'd teach them to ration data by using a good old fashioned phone .... no video need, just human voices

I'd also limit their gaming time, but I'd trick them into spending certain hours going outside for a walk, or doing 1 household chore. I wouldnt sell it as "I AM LIMITING YOUR GAMING", but rather, "okay kids, its been 2 hours of gaming, now you gotta spend 2 hours outdoors.... then rotate back to 2 more hours of gaming.




For offline fun, when I was on a plane to Tokyo (15+ hour flight) I killed time by playing games like WC3 Frozen Throne, no need for a connection!

What would I do without data? Hmmm...
Let me think. Since I'm a boomer in my early 30s I'd say go out all day, go to the gym, meet friends, go play football (Soccer for you Americans) and just do fun stuff outside. Man! Kids these days don't know how to be kids. Seeing them in their parents' phones all the time makes me feel sorry for them because they don't have what my generation did.

And if I had to stay home in a situation like this then I have my 3DS and some good old nostalgia Pokemon games like Red, Gold, and Silver to play. Also a library full of books that I almost never open.

Although it's hard to imagine a world where we'd have to ration data. It seems dystopic but we are pretty close to it.
Prayers that all this passes soon and we are all back to normal.
Stay strong!

Im still fun of the offline games and campaigns.I do too come from an era where SNES/NES sony ericsson,nokia 3210 were the most advanced technology.Likely ive saved a lot of offline games on an HDD for some days without internet.I had a few of those days when i was moving from town to town.

If I had a ration data, I will play Pokemon in Nintendo platform during the lockdown period and no data days. I remember when I was a kid, data and internet still doesn't exist, I used to play Pokemon on Gameboy and I am happy playing with it.

i already cant play my favorite (atm) game at peak times, coz of server issues.

Much as I hate to admit it, myself and the vast majority of people who can access this site rely on, and quite likely feel entitled to, consistent internet service.

There would surely be riots! Surprised there hasn't been already, with all the cabin fever.
Where am I?

That will be horrible for every gamer0.0
Playing games without interacting with other players is super bored!

Usually, exercise and yoga would do, but that can only go so far...

Losing the internet is not the end of everything, maybe for us older generations, but for the younger ones, /gg.

Normally I would go shopping around or go spend time with friends, however since that is not possible during those times, I would spend as much time as possible outside, along with possibly getting a bit of extra sleep in as well.

Hah, when i was a kid my father would turn off my internet during the nights so that i won't play anymore and sleep to be awake in time for school. This until i figured out i can download movies and games that does not require internet, more like campaigns and single player games. But even if it hurts when you think of it, i don't know what else i could do inside if i won't have internet anymore. Would be like a real prison for me.
