Was I right to disobey my mother?

For the past few months, I have been very excited about a new game called "Amnesia: The Dark Descent". Unfortunately, the game is rated M. A few years ago (about 2 to be precise), my mother told me that she would not allow an M-rated game in her house. She also specifically singled-out Amnesia, calling it "a hell simulation" and a "downright disturbing abomination".



Last night, I saw Amnesia for sale on Steam for $4.00. Its list price is $20.00. The deal was too good to pass up, so I bought it, and downloaded it onto my computer.



The game is currently sitting on my desktop, and I have not started to play it yet, for obvious reasons. What if my mother comes in while I'm playing it? She'll know immediately that I disobeyed her wishes. Should I just tell her that I downloaded the game, or is it none of her business? I just turned 18, so purchasing an M-rated game isn't that big of a deal...Was I right to disobey my mother?
Legally you are of age and you could play this game but you already suffer from depression Evan and your mom is just concerned about you...this sounds like a highly nasty game to me that will make you feel worse and I can understand that your mother forbade it, I believe she only did not want you to get this because it sounds deeply disturbing and there have been online games that were so violent that two teenage boys played a killing game on the computer and they got so engulfed in it that the rage became reality and one boy killed the other..he virtually mutilated him in the same way the person was executed in the video game..some of them should never be allowed to be sold..no matter how old a person is..some video games bring out the worst in human beings no matter how old they are and ''Amnesia ''the dark decent'' is not what I would like my 18 year old son to play on his computer as a video game..if he already suffers from depression then this is going to make it worse..as a mother loving her son I would tell him to please not get that game..I could not really forbid an 18 year old to not buy or play it but I would tell him that I am deeply concerned that this is dangerous stuff that will cause his depression to worsen...and hope he would not play the game...xxWas I right to disobey my mother?
Why not jut talk to your mom? After all, it was 2 years ago that she stated the "no M rated rule". Perhaps now that you are 18, she might have a change of heart.



Why keep it from her, be honest and responsible. If you discuss this with her like an adult, maybe she will appreciate how ( M)ature you have become. I doubt she will respect your choice to purchase the game if you hide it from her. Being sneaky is something a 16 year old would be more inclined to do..........Was I right to disobey my mother?
Really dude grow a pair. Yes you should always respect your mom but your 18. I'm sure you still act like a little kid and thats why she treats you like one. Get a job and meet people.
