She shouldn't have to prevent you from practicing your hobby but you need to manage your time. How much time you play game and how much time you spend with your wife. I see stuff like this a lot but at least you aren't complaining.When I see this stuff it's normally some guy complaining about how he wants to play his game the whole day everyday and not spend time with his girl. It's like why be in a relationship?Some of these same people get mad when they get dumped. I don't really have a problem with my boyfriend playing games because I play games when him all the time but I can understand not everyone likes games and get upset if their partner choose to play games more than spending time with them.

if my gf/wife forbid me to do my hobby it would be a deal breaker, I could care less if we had been maried for 20+ years with 3 kids, if she tryed to stop me from what i enjoy the most in my life I would break up with her/divorse her on the spot.

Well, I'm not into games that much but in terms of hobbies, I'll use One Piece as an example. Two of my exs was not too fond of me spending Tuesday / or Wednesday (the chapters used to come out during those times) reading One Piece (I wouldn't go out with them around those days due to studying as well) and they'd start nagging about it nonstop. There were other exs who aren't cool with some of my other hobbies and even my current girlfriend is not cool with me spending time studying more than I do spending time with her, even though she sees me a lot and get 30/40 hours with me each week, but since I'm not married to her and since my education matters more than her then I'm not really willing to add more hours to it (30/40 hours is time management at its finest)
I'm sure you've managed your time well and love her deeply and of course when you have a child you will need to cool it down but really, it all comes up to "how old you are?".

If she's restricting me from doing something I love doing, and it isn't doing any harm to anyone or anything, I'd simply tell that hoe to piss off.

Well, relationships are not easy. Set some boundaries, for starters. Have a sit-down and explain it that you are passionate about VGs, just like she is about her so and so hobby. Negotiate time and how you will manage your hobby and give the obligatory time to your wife.

I do not think it is that big of an issue. Personally, I would never get into a relationship with someone who was so opposed to my hobbies. But, since that ship has already sailed (congratulations), the best you can do is work around the problem. If you both handle this maturely, I really cannot see how a simple matter such a hobby management will not get solved.

Consider this a trial run for your life ahead. This will give both of you an idea as to where the other one is coming from. Good luck!

P.s: Also, don't listen to the loopy ones here. Marriage is still a lot more important in value than VGs, and this is coming from a hardcore gamer here.

Why would I be together with someone who doesn't accept one of my biggest hobbies and passions in the first place? :|

Also MGSV>everything else
You didn't JUST say that. You didn't ... **** ... you didn't. MGS 2 >>>> ALL MGS', brah.

I am rethinking our forum relationsh ... ahem ... friendship.

if my gf/wife forbid me to do my hobby it would be a deal breaker, I could care less if we had been maried for 20+ years with 3 kids, if she tryed to stop me from what i enjoy the most in my life I would break up with her/divorse her on the spot.

<div class="bbWrapper">Give her a swift backhand to the right cheek.<br /> <br /> Just keep a clock/phone/watch nearby at all times. Set alarms if you have to XD<br /> <br /> You're not going to get so lost in the game that you forget you're married? lel not after a while anyway. Just find the right balance. Just find the required amount of time/effort your wife wants. Congrats btw. Hope she isn't a total *****...</div>
