The last time I took a break is when I went to Japan for 17 days. The time before that is when I had a gf for a few weeks 11 years ago.

11 years ago? A few weeks? 11 years ago? Japan? 11 years ago? Please explain.

Went to Japan last summer.

Had lots of GFs when I was younger, but none of them went serious. And I lost all social skills, so its been 11 years.



I'm mostly caught up on my backlog (just got Tales From the Borderlands and TWD Michonne to play after Firewatch). Then I'll be playing Uncharted and Doom but after those I'll probably have a long break. Many times in the Summer I'll go on a movie/show backlog spree instead of gaming. Like a movie a day instead of a couple hours of gaming. It just depends on release schedule. I only play single player and usually more linear games till I get platinum on most of them so Summers and other lulls can cause long breaks.



I am Iron Man

i only game if i have nothing else to do (dont watch television etc).
And im only on this forums when i have nothing to game lol



I play quite a bit less during summer. I go out a whole lot more during this season, so gaming takes a back seat. During that period, I mostly play when I have nothing else to do or during rain days.

When I have schools I usually only play games like Smash or 4X games and not really anything new. Just something to kill a bit of time and relax but not invest time into learning.



All the time.



I'm more here on this site then I actually game...


Help me.. I'm trapped in Smeags prison.. He doesn't let me game and uses me as his manslave



 

Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!) 

So by break you mean stop playing on certain console or pc while still gaming?.. I wouldnt call that a break

4X doesn't really count as gaming anyway. 

Well then, what is it?
