have any of you been able to rediscover a love for vidya after a total loss of interest for 10+ years? ,how did you do it? I'm tired of fake and gay social media and I rather waste my time with videogames but nothing capture my attention (probably because of social media brainrot)
>>
>>729451163
yes , I got a job.
the 2 hour window I have every night where I can play games makes me appreciate it so much more.
everything in moderation

>>729451163
You're brain rotted.
It's over

I burnt out heavily at the tail end of my MMORPG period. What got me back in was WarioWare: Smooth Moves - I remember thinking that the joy of "chop flying onion!" is so far removed from guild drama that I I can stomach this again.
So, maybe try chasing a new flavor of joy from games.
As an aside, you should train your attention span for more than just entertainment.

alcohol severely affects my love of vidya
i'll spend all night watching cooking youtube shorts so i don't have to pay attention to a game

find purpose anon

your interest in vidya will come back once your life has meaning

rude

h-games, not even joking.
>>
No. Just play good games.
>>
>>729451163
Ignore trends and play cheap games from game stop. Spend $20 on a stack of used games and play them. If you're a PC gamer then the damage is permanent you won't get better.
>>
>>729451163
never play games in the day. only at night.
its crazy but it werks
>>
I never lost interest.
>>
when does the burnout happen? I am a neet and almost 30 but so far vidya is still fun enough to occupy my every day. Is it like a 35-40 thing?
>>
>>729451163
Try new genre
I had more fun playing video games in my 20s than i had in my childhood
I played all kinds of games in just last 2 yrs. fall in love with action combat then played a lot of racing games, spend so much time on rts and now trying to get into fighting games for the first time
Trying new things is how you stay alive

no thanks

when you finally realize you missed out on life. about age 35
>>
>>729452767
the crazy part is that you might have 98% of your shit together but that remaining 2% is what fucking haunts you. For me it's not travelling and not rawdogging a nerdy butterface back in college. Apart from that I have everything I want and need.
>>
>>729452767
What is "life"?
>>
>>729452767
But I know that now everyone loves shoving it in my face, it doesn't make me want to do things I don't want to do. Can't you just remember that you didn't want to do those things you wish you had now?

>>729452994
its a game you're in charge of. the quality of that game is down to you

the truth is these people would be wallowing in pity and regret no matter where they are in their lives >>729452968
If you have the right mindset you can always live without regret. People here are just fucking miserable.

>>729451794
why don't indians just make their country better instead of destroying the developed world?

>ignore backlog
>ignore FOTM games
>ignore multiplayer and coop shit
mostly this.

just play ASTLIBRA

there's too many Function keys

The only games I'd be willing to play longterm have been rundown by powertripping admins and devs (oldschool MMO private servers). Besides that: every genre I am interested it will never receive new titles worth my money or time, because modern devs and triple-ass publisher only ever produce interactive advertisments and EOMM-powered MTX mills that are getting micromanaged with bots and designed to cater to and retain demi-human FOTM/FOMO locausts exactly long enough to recoup absurd, hyperbloated marketing budgets.
