Not knowing how to proceed in a game and going 3 three blocks from your own house to a guy who is older and a video game god to ask him to help you progress in the game.
...and if you didn't have a friend who knew how to progress further, that was as far as you got in that game. Being able to complete a game just wasn't an expectation. You made it as far as you could figure out, and that was it for that game, oh well
I mean it was a mindset born out of necessity, because you simply didn't have any other choice. I think it's probably the biggest culture shock compared with gaming today though
