Current Events > I feel like I've almost completely lost my urge to play videogames :/

(+) Yeah! (+)

The last few months to year have been weird for me, the amount of hours I've ever spent gaming have been minuscule. Sitting down to game when I have nothing else to do used to be one of my favorite pastimes now I can barely bring myself to even start a game let alone finish one. Shit sucks man

I have my waves of being obsessive about games and simply not wanting to play them.

Taking a break from gaming can be a good thing sometimes.

I still enjoy playing games, but I can't play as often as I used to. Mostly due to career and kids. So, often times, I'll start playing a game, but have to pause for an extended period of time to wrangle the kids.

There is also the problem of too many options. I literally have a backlog of more than 200 games, so trying to decide what to play is paralyzing.

Between those factors, it's usually easier to just passively browse the internet than sit down to a game.

Yep. I miss only being able to afford an $80 cartridge every once in a while, God damn eShop and steam sales

Change is constant. It is everything and everywhere.

Don't resist it. Don't cling to the past (because you used to play a lot).

Now is now and right now you simply don't wanna play as much, or at all.

It is normal.
