>>732649682
Kind of but it’s more like all the games I have are boring to me. I have a backlog but it’s almost entirely made of games I played for a few hours and dropped. Really what I want more than anything is that next new game that clicks with me and that I can put 10+ hours into in my first sitting. Last game I was playing was DQ7 reimagined and I just got the magic carpet and started to get bored. Dunno what that next game will be for me.

Nope, I'm not a subhuman

Yes, and I'm not proud of it. If my child self had access to the games I have now, even the ones that aren't very good, he'd play the shit out of them.
>>
>>732649682
no although i will often find that i'm not in the mood for any game in particular so i'll read or watch youtube videos or something
if i feel like i want to play something but im not sure what to play ill just choose something at random and play it for a bit. if it doesn't stick ill just choose something else or do something besides play games
but also i don't really use social media apps

Not since about a year and a half ago. I told myself I'd beat all the steam games i bought and felt really accomplished when the year end review thing in steam popped up and it showed i played 80 new games. I've been steady on the grind sense, only buying one game for every three i beat so I can continue to support new small studios i like while still clearing out my older stuff. It's really fun seeing a variety of genres and publishing dates and seeing what worked back then and what didn't and what doesn't work now and should look to the past

Is this an ADHD thing?
I feel like my mind works like train tracks, if I'm invested in something I will obsess over it and give it my undivided attention but as soon as I'm "derailed" by anything it feels impossible to get back to it again
And I get "derailed" very easily, sometimes for no reason at all
I'll play a game for 11 hours straight one day, love it, want to keep playing the next day, then all of a sudden lose all interest and hate myself every single day I'm not playing it
It feels like playing games or watching anime or whatever is a huge "commitment" for no fucking reason and it means I never do anything but browse this shithole or rewatch decade+ old youtube videos I've watched hundreds of times already

not sure about the commitment thing, i used to feel that but i just stopped caring if i finish games or not and just play whatever

>>732650505
Fucking hell this is me. Also, returning to an old game I love, play it for hours enjoying myself only to think later I wasted my time instead of doing the backlog. FUCK
>>
>>732649682
It's your subconscious telling you you should stop playing videogames
>>
>>732650505
No, that's just binge behavior. ADHD people can hyperfocus, but hyperfocus is not ADHD. Do you think the normies that watch 20 hours of some slop show and drop it are ADHD? Get a grip retard.

I know what I want to play, but I'm too much of a lazy fuck to actually turn the game on
and when I turn the game on I get bored and turn it off after 30 minutes
then an hour later I want to play the game again and if I manage to turn it on I will get bored of it after 30 minutes again
and if I don't play a game for a few weeks I just cannot be fucked to play it again cause the flow has been broken and I feel like I need to start from the beginning but I don't want to start from the beginning cause that's a chore

You can always just pick one system and play that instead, or idk a release year.

I chose the Gamecube yesterday, played Viewtiful Joe. (for the first time)

Played Smash at a friend's house today.

I guarantee the vast majority of AI slop is by people sending requests on phones. Phones are the absolute dirth of creative tools and a huge reason for the death of OC on 4chinz

>I guarantee the vast majority of AI slop is by people sending requests on phones
Maybe for text messages and whatever filters social media apps use, but for the most part using AI on your phone for creation is terrible. It's much better using a laptop or desktop PC.
>>
>>732649682
No, I have self control and can decide what I want to do on a given day.

>>732649682
Eh. The thing about this is that I will feel this way for a solid month, then a game like Nioh 3 will come out (which I have been looking forward to) and I have played 6 hours a day every day since it came out.

I think my issue is just that I put games in my backlog and I bought games and yet I have to admit that a lot of them that I thought were interesting at the time I don't actually think look that great anymore. It is just the sunk cost fallacy telling me that game I bought for sale for $25 I'll definitely play and keep it installed.

I have this problem a lot.
Choice paralysis.
But despite that I still play a lot of games. Played some Exanima earlier today, both arena and dungeon mode. I hopelessly suck at this game, especially with anything but sidewards swings but I still had fun and that's what matters.
>>
Do I just pick a game and play it until the end then pick a new game. My only fatigue is that oh shit its 2 am and I need to do my ZZZ dailies before bed because I was engrossed in another game.

I'm cleaning up my backlog (around 45 games and I have a few on GOG too) and trying not to buy any games for a good while (trying to save money for life stuff), but sometimes I just don't even want to play anything which is a good thing so I can focus on more important things. With my limited free time I feel like I'm set for years with replayable games and games I haven't even booted up yet.

What a surprise straigth men who have a lonliness epidemic and sky high suicide rates are addicted to doom scrolling and don't play videogames.

Yet despite not playing videogames they still come to a vidya board, i guess to post political shit, porn and anime.

For single player games, I try not to get a new game until I finish the last one.

No. I finished 42 games in 2025. I've finished 3 so far this year. Start tracking what you play, and stick to a plan for what you are going to play next. Its helped me get more out of this hobby

Also, make sure you have hobbies that make you break a sweat and go outside.
>>
>>732649682
Yes. I bought a projector so I could watch shows and play vidya in bed, far away from my PC, so browsing and shitposting is out of reach. Helps a lot with getting distracted.

I boughted Deus Ex more than 10 years ago. Still have to play it... one of these days i suppose.

I started just picking a game and starting. It's better to have medium fun than doomscroll. Time spent on my phone is the only time I look back on with pure regret.

I do this because modern games and other media are bad

My choice paralysis often lasts only a few days after i finish a longer game and only on which next longer game i am gonna play.
But even then il just play random fighting games or focus more on the MMOs PVP games i usually play on the side of my SP games.
Or watch a series instead of playing games.

For reference after i got the true ending for Armored core 6.
And finished Remnant from the ashes Again alongside the prequel Cronos in vr.
I spent 1 week doing nothing but playing SFVI doing dailies and an event in GW2 an watching fibal season of Startreck DS9.
And then finally 2 days ago i started finally after all of these years playing Cyberounk and Ender Lilies.

it's been almost two decades since a good game was released

It's not really decision paralysis. It's the fact all games suck, and I'm tired of replaying the good ones.
The only good new game I've played in years was Abiotic Factor, and now I'm just waiting for DLC's for that.
Games are shit now. They used to be good, and I've had plenty of time to play the good ones into the ground.

>ice sculpturing

You can't just drop that and not give more info. Are you doing small, home made blocks of ice or are you doing the big stuff like you see at parties? If you're doing the big stuff do you go somewhere to sculpt or are you doing it at home somehow?
>>
>>732649682
No because I don't game on office equipment.
