To married people: What is your wife doing, while you play BG2

[Rail]

Sure you can. Baby on one arm, BG2 with the other hand. Works for me. Well, most of the time.

[mikel]

Enjoy the time you can hold it with one arm. If 'it' gets older you need both arms to defend your PC, otherwise it's really fast 'it's' PC.

Or you guys can try the method shown on the ESPN ad where the guy is entertaining his baby with a rattle/changing the diaper with his feet while surfing ESPN's website. Funny stuff, but so true if you're a gamer.

Oh boy, my wife got pregnant somewhere in the last couple of months - since BG II came out... Mmmmm, must have been Minsc after I kicked him out of my party...

<<Mental Note>> must take care of wife every now and then while playing, or pregnancy will follow complaints...AGAIN!!!
---I hope they can wait a bit with BGIII--- ;-)

Ohmnigosh, guys, is it SO hard to put together family and BG2 gaming? Well, I guess it is..
But, still, we haven't got a child, so I guess it could be worse... much worse...

Keep on posting people, this is a usefull poll here!!!

It's really easy putting family and BG2 together. Me and my wife just sit here after some hours of playing BG2 together, drinking a glass of wine and scan through the posts.
Better than sitting in front of a TV watching some %&$§ quiz or soap.

BTW it helps if there are grandparents, our son is on vacation with them, nobody in the house disturbing us ( playing BG2 http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/biggrin.gif )

Alright, now I'm really jealous. My wife has no interest plying BG2 and I have no grandparents to hand the kid off to. Stuck with the one-arm-while-wife-is-at-work thing.

[mikel]

Hhhmmmmm,
looks like you are in need of good gym training if your family grows and BG3 is released: two babies in 2 arms and playing BG with feed ???

Would give a really good picture http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/wink.gif

My wife usually plays 'The Sims' on her PC.

Needless to say, it crashes every 5 minutes.

[mikel]

Does she have her own PC or did you configured that machine http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/eek.gif http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/tongue.gif

[mikel]

Now I'm even more confused. Just read your profile, you are a computer programmer and allow any PC in your house to crash ?

Are you working for MS ? http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

My soon to be wife's complaining up a storm because I'm in front of the pc tryin' to get BGII installed - see my new post "Installation Error/Issue" and help me please.... she bought me the game for Christmas... boy she doesn't have a clue... if I get this thing installed properly, she'll never see me again 'xept when I gotta eat, sleep, and poop. Haha....

Can I find a Wife in Watcher's Keep?

[Yshania]

This is quite amusing!

@DeathBlow - you will be amazed at what you learn to do with one arm free after having a baby! lol! (that is once you have the confidence to hold your baby with one arm!)

Well I don't have a wife but to husbands count? Well I am fortunate - he works a twilight shift (2pm to 10pm) so I have every evening once the kids are asleep...so he is not REALLY a BG2 widower.

Weekends are soo hard though, going without gaming for one night (Saturday - the only evening we have together!) Sunday he plays snooker, I play BG.
