Since childhood, he was very fond of fantasy role-playing games like The legend of zelda and Secret of mana… And when they bought him “Oblivion” for the Xbox 360 … Well, the project Bethesda literally deprived him of sleep, and this could not but affect his work.
For example, in 2007 on the set “Jane Austen“Where you had to get up around six in the morning and ideally go to bed by ten pm, McAvoy sat in Oblivion until four in the morning.
Once the actor spent almost 10 hours in a row in Cyrodiil, going to bed only at half past six in the morning, and ten minutes later he was woken up by the beeps of his car. Then McAvoy realized that something had to be done.
Without hesitation, he simply turned on the gas stove and burned the Oblivion disc, promising himself that he would no longer dive so much into video games.
This went on for about ten years, but over time McAvoy returned to games, falling in love FIFA… And now he periodically plays with friends in Call of Duty: Warzone, talking about life, relationships and all sorts of different things, while they are “destroyed by 12-year-old children from other countries.”
Whatever you say, but during the pandemic, online communication has become really important and even necessary when you cannot meet people close to you.
