not op but honestly I just got less interested in the new shit because it became less fun and more encouragement to buy more shit either through the grind or through tons of bullshit dlc or cosmetics or anything else. I still enjoy a couple games like minecraft, terraria, and tboi but overall I got out involuntarily. also breaking my wrist lead to me not playing games for a long time and that kind of loosened the amount of importance they had to me.
Yeah I get that feeling a lot of time, I think my main obstacle is that I don't have the motivation or discipline to do my other hobbies like creative writing, reading and exercise for an extended amount of time regularly. For writing I need to be in a certain mindset/get motivated, how long I can read is really dependent on how much I'm enjoying the book, and more exercise requires more self-discipline, of which I have fuck all.
At least that's what my excuses in my head are for defaulting to video games since it's easy to do and doesnt require much brain power at all
I was feeling bad about it to begin with, and then I took a 17 credit load while working. I realized that I had to choose between gaming and seeing anyone in my life and at that point the choice was easy.
When next month starts I'm gonna be doing the same, too fucking bad I'm an American with sickly grandparents lol
I'm hoping there'll be a point in time where being in work/school and its safe to see my friends in full capacity again before my uni reverts to completely in-person, at that point I'll prob make the same decision u did :)
Quitting gaming was the best thing I ever did.
how
Like how did I do it, or how is it a good thing?
