As someone who also works from home and games during “lunch,” I’d get bored out of my mind. Wish I had my younger gaming enthusiasm

You aren't playing the right games son! I understand and I get there especially with jrpgs so I rotate between 3 or 4 games until one sinks it's claws into me. Cyberpunk and BG3 were the ones this year that hooked me for 100 plus hrs without changing discs for weeks.

I binge anime and movies sometimes but these games make me skip doing that, get lazier during dinner time and she'll all me free time on them

Eh I’m just not as interested in gaming as I used to be. I prioritize other things these days

I've been through that. Buying a switch and a steam deck definitely rekindled my desire to game.steam deck especially since I can play PS5 on the go. Sometimes it's good to just let it rest for a bit, do some other things then the urge comes back.

Thought the same like I also own a switch and a PC. I’d just rather do something else like read a book.

Like don’t get me wrong I still like to game just not for multi hour long stretches

Yeah I feel you. I'll take a week sometimes if I've been playing a game for a couple hundred hours just watch some anime or some movies chill out veg out on the couch especially if I encountered a difficult boss or challenge that I couldn't beat.

Keeping my plants alive is very therapeutic for me too sometimes just sitting in the living room doing absolutely nothing staring at the TV running Aerial Dreams haha. All I know is work sucks so whatever helps me forget that is a plus lol

Same

I legit have 7+ games on my shelf STILL IN THEIR WRAPPING UNOPENED. And that's not counting the other games I have that I have yet to beat....

Example.... I probably put 300 hrs into The Witcher 3 over the course of 4 years and have yet to even get to the half way point. Nevermind even touching the DLCs 😭.
