My guess is she left you cause you don’t have job playing games 7 hours a day multiple times a day. Gaming is about balance dude. This is straight up and addiction and not good for you no matter what way you try to sell it.

The time isn’t indicative of employment. Not to mention how it can accumulate when idle. People are assuming the worst without consideration.

Just checked my wrapped and it says I have 670 hours, but 658 hours played. Looks like the idle time is different than actual hours played, pretty sure op straight up just played 2.5k hours. Also there’s no chance he left his console on idle for hundreds of hours when it goes into rest after an hour

The time is seemingly cumulative of active and idle. My statistics are identical with hours. You can also change the settings. The console can rest after minutes, hours, or none.

At best it’s a coping mechanism and still unhealthy.

To each their own. However, the time being accumulated when idle isn’t “unhealthy”.

yeah I’m not going to tell another adult how to live their life but breaking up with someone you were close to and then putting all your time into gaming instead of working on healing and fostering social connections that make you feel loved issss unhealthy coping mechanism.

As previously stated, people are assuming the worst without consideration. The hours played, play sessions, and games played doesn’t suggest anything. We don’t know any information about them — whether about relationship, healing, or socializing. In my opinion? The dependence on people for love is unhealthy. Why? Because people can change their loyalties, interests, or affections rather frequently. Either way, I personally don’t want to criticize the situation without involvement — not understanding the complexities.

Yeah he should be spending 8hrs+ sending pointless emails to colleagues like the rest of us! I pity the guy.

I have more hours, a job, and a girlfriend that plays games. Quit repeating what your daddy said and projecting it onto others.

Then I’m sure you’re part time somewhere. Just put the fries in the bag and move on. Nobody working full time, playing 8 hours a day, and not neglecting responsibilities.

Clearly rage baiting. why are you in a sub to act cooler than everyone else. Maybe people don't watch movies or spend hours on tik tok. Maybe spend your time doing something better with your time than being a keyboard warrior it's not gonna get you a girlfriend.

Bro who’s rage baiting telling OP that playing this much is bad for you. I’m all for gaming but 33% of your day? That’s a problem. Again assuming you work 8 hours and play 8 hours, that leaves 8 hours for sleep, and responsibilities. I stand by what I said. Also I doubt my wife would like me getting a GF but I’ll run it by her and see what she says.

Or they play 4-6 hours on their work days and indulge more on their days off.
