Start game

I started reading Warhammer 40k books and posting on /tg/ when this happens to me
Is this what getting old feels like?

Stop buying so many games. The more you have the less you value.

i wanna contribute to this thread but im too tired to type out a humorous and coherent thought

It pisses me off but I cant find something better to play. Last time I played I managed to survive to the first world ender event.
And had some unique items too. But that was back in early access. Pic Reeelated.

Growing old sucks

You're going to have to find other hobbies

Try buying a ebook reader

You grew up

You lack a certain curiosity to want to play the game. It must be a game you have played many times before or it is some clone/uninspired title that fails to satiate your taste. This is common and normal. It's called the gaming industry turning into a massive pile of shit.

fuck thats been me all day

I'm starting to make an effort to finish games that I bought so I don't feel as stupid for wasting money. Wish me luck.

Holy fuck this and then eventually you get too burnt out to do anything

I seriously hope none of you actually do this...

I'll tell you what helps me, and I'm not even baiting with this. I like to buy some physical games. I like having them beside me to look at the cases. If it's a used game, I clean the sticker residue off and wipe off the disc and the case. Something about having tangible, physical objects dumps dopamine in my brain or something and excites me to play the game. I unironically feel like that's what's missing when I read these threads.

>start a game last week
>stop at the title screen and go shitposting on Yea Forums and Yea Forums and never touch a game since that moment

I think I'm ready done with that shit.

I have a game paused right now. I started a new game, stopped to look up something about the game real quick, and here I am, 25 minutes later. All I've done is the intro so far.

>Yea Forums's first existential crisis

Thats optional

I buy a lot from Humble, mostly the bundles. So all those extra codes I just pop in Steam, don't really wanna give them away because their shit games that OTHER people wouldn't play.

games are shit now nothing new time for something else

How many of you fine upstanding fellows smoke the reefer? It may not seem like it but it can have some pretty subtle but substantial psychological effects on you. You dont gotta stop completely but take some nice 'tolerance breaks' for a month or two at a time and you might notice a real difference in motivation and drive.

what if i sleep 12 hours a day?

Me on the left

Yeah just "get" sleep like that's a thing you can actually do on purpose.

>wife

i'm so sorry user.

When this happens just push through and you'll get sucked into good games

Is it ADD/ADHD? How to fucking deal with it once and for all? I'm going crazy.

Happens to me with porn nowadays.
Start browsing porn, fap a bit get tired, lose hardon, turn off computer go to bed.
I've fallen asleep several times with my phone in my hand and my laptop in my chest too.

It's not ADHD when you fall asleep. It's ADHD when you start doing something else.

sorry about your dog mom

What were the other hobbies you had to give up on user? I'm curious

It doesn't really matter if something like that is "optional" because if the game is designed around it being viable then it's going to be a boring game.

>start day
>maybe I'll do X today!
>fuck around until 8pm
>go to my room with laptop

Welcome to adulthood.

Happens to me every time I try to play Breath of the Wild. Turn it on, move Link around a bit, and the next thing I know I'm waking-up 12 hours later. Doesn't matter if I just woke-up already or have so much caffeine in me that I'm a jittery mess, that game just zonks me the right out.

Because it's boring

>tired
>play game anyway
>play until 9:00 am and somehow not tired anymore

how do i make friends bros

>a medieval fighting and larp group
>writing

That, my friends have ghost me or left. Used to be big into a couple MMOs, they are dead. I World built a role playing setting on and off for two years and tried my hardest to come up with a way to play D&D style tabletop solo, failed.

I'm seriously considering going back on adderrall. My ADD is starting to impair my ability to have fun playing games, watching movies, or reading stories. I have to fucking force my self to play games anymore.

Welcome to depression.

That's not the ADD, that's the effect of years of flooding your brain with amphetamines. I can't believe the pharma industry got away with that one. It's arguably worse than stagnating cancer treatment development.

If you take too much of all that shit it will just make you worse. Try some simple relaxation or meditation, when I have trouble sleeping I stop and read a book or simply lay in the dark for an hour, thinking about the day. Too much screen time can fuck with you.

>12 hour sleep
>post breakfast hour nap
>mid-day 2 hour nap
>pre-sleep hour nap

is this enough sleep?

>That's not the ADD, that's the effect of years of flooding your brain with amphetamines
Except it is the ADD as i haven't taken adderrall since i was like 8. That shit was magic back than, and i know it would work now.

>If you take too much of all that shit it will just make you worse.
That's if you take more than the prescribed dosage, i don't plan on doing that.

I'm only awake like 2 to 3 hours every day and the rest is spent sleeping. Is that enough?

>That's if you take more than the prescribed dosage, i don't plan on doing that.
NO, I'm talking about all of it. Doctors are batshit, say "I'm depressed." they will throw all kinds of shit at you. Say "I have a sore throat." they will give you some stupid overpriced syrup you can only get in one place with over the counter works. I refuse pain meds unless I come back from a surgery, I can take care of my own mental health and will not take all the shit they will cram you with that can make you WORSE, and refuse to go for the simple cold.

I just had major dentistry done and I work irregular graveyard shifts twice a week in addition to my regular hour schedule.
My sleep schedule is the most fucked it's ever been.

KH3. Unironically.

I'm having the AI play Fortune Street for me right now.

How do you guys deal with not being excited for anything anymore?

>Except it is the ADD as i haven't taken adderrall since i was like 8. That shit was magic back than, and i know it would work now.
>It's not the drugs that fucked with my dopamine receptors as a developing child
>I just need the drugs again
Another victim of big pharma.

>It's not the drugs that fucked with my dopamine receptors as a developing child
I know it wasn't because i didn't start feeling this way until very recently.

>I just need the drugs again
Not my fault my brain is fucked.

Except once you start getting 8 hours regularly you crave it every single time you sleep. I'll wake up with 6 hours to take a piss and be so tired I wouldn't even think of not going back to sleep, whereas I used to sleep 6 hours all the time and that was it.

I guess the bonus is you're not tired the entire day.

i used to drink a lot but i lost a will to even do that

And how old are you now? I really hope you're not a young adult who just finished up his development, because that would make you an idiot in denial.

If you're sleeping that much because you're depressed then fine, but if you're waking up after a regular nights sleep dead tired you might have sleep apnea.

Have you thought about playing a game in a genre that you're unfamiliar with? Or like, maybe pick a year, get a list of the top 50 selling games of that year, and find one that you've never heard of before, and just play it. Don't even think about it, just open yourself up to a new experience. As long as it's not Madden or FIFA or some bullshit. If you give it a try and don't like it, try it again with another game.

I find that the longer that I've owned a game and haven't played it, the less special it feels little by little, until I'm not excited for it anymore at all. I really try to only buy 1 or at most 2 games at a time and play them through at least once before buying more games. The novelty stays fresh that way.
