You're putting in more hours than I am so...I think you're pretty into it. Since January, I don't think I've even clocked in 3 hours of gameplay and I swear...1 of those hours was spent playing the original Tetris. It's not that I don't love games anymore, or can't get into them. I want to but university and work are a combo that doesn't care what you want to do. The next game that I will try to get into will most likely be Zelda U because I have to play Zelda games religiously. If I flunk a class of university when it comes out...oh well. It'll be worth it.
My advice, get out more. Playing games for short bursts isn't harmful. Playing them for hours upon end make you feel sluggish and lose interest. Take some time off. Go back to games that you truly enjoy and you don't have to play everything. There's a TON of content out there. Much more than the 80's and 90's combined. There's so much to play. Choose games that you don't want to miss at any cost. Like for me, that's Zelda and treat gaming as a reward. That's my advice, it's worked for me. |
it's not like i dont have a life outside of games because i do. I used to use my free time to play games now I use my free time to sit around and wish I could play a game for more than 5 mins before getting bored.

I understand. I feel the same way but for me, it's because I feel like I've seen everything. Nobody is really trying much in the way of being new or different. And to me, life just changes your ability to play or get into games. And some more food for thought, when I say get out more I guess I worded it poorly. What I meant to say is try other activities like reading, drawing, sports, anything but games. Or try games that you never tried before. I'm just spitballing here. Something that I pray doesn't plague you is depression.
