Friends, I noticed a trend. The more I deluge myself with gaming media and games, the less satisfied I am about games, the more I whine about things.

What if you played less games, do you think you would better enjoy the games you play? Do you think you would be less critical of games on other platforms and just enjoy the best games that come to you, like a big game hunter?



Around the Network

Well, compared to a few years ago, I play far fewer games nowadays due to how burnt out I am on several genres (sports, racing, FPS, JRPGs, fighting games), and it´s not easy for the genres I still enjoy to amaze me..so, in my case, having played for so many years, it does get harder and harder for a game to grab my attention.

Every time a new generation arrived, I always owned every major system, but now I´ve decided to stick with two 8th gen systems, probably PS4 and Wii U, I don´t know yet...I no longer have the patience to dedicate so much time to gaming, so I´ll be gaming far less in the 8th generation than I did ever since I started gaming, but yes, I suspect I´ll end up having a renewed enjoyment partly because of that, even if it´s only temporary.



The time I actually spend gaming has drastically reduced since I joined VGChartz. Now I just bought GTA IV and put over 30 hours into it in ~3 days...maybe you are onto something...



I would rather play less if it meant I play better games.
