I tried to get into Runescape again hoping I could lose myself in it. Like just get addicted to the grind. But I find it doesn't work for me anymore. I start doing an activity like mining and I just feel like I'm wasting time. Does anyone else have this problem? Why isn't the dopamine hitting anymore? Even the pleasure of "numbers go up" just doesnt work here
>>736202094try swtor
>>736202094it's called growing upstart doing something else
>>736202094It happened to me too. I grew up playing Maplestory so much and with the upcoming Maplestory Classic I'm now kinda afraid that I won't enjoy the grind anymore like I used to.
>>736202094You aren't brain-damaged enough, try hitting your head really hard against the table a few times, if that doesn't work try a hammer.
>>736202094i shit you not but playing dragon age veilguard as a mage was stupid fucking fun. and theres enough content to keep you blasting for 90 hours
>>736202094>When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
>>736202727Why are you trying to make him kill himself. Stop. That's not nice.
>>736202902Which is sad if you think about it. Killing your inner child is the path of becoming miserable.
>>736202094same, but it's because i scroll and consume endless content on slop websites now.
>>736202989Well as a grown ass man you're supposed to have children of your own and raise them and do fun things with them reigniting your passion for life.But since you're a fucked up NEET retard with no chance at fucking anything capable of producing life, you are doomed to misery. It is what it is.
>>736202094You're burnt out and need to take a break from vidya.Try spending an entire day without touching your computer and spend that time outside or reading a book or something like that. After you've done that you should be able to come back and waste more of your life playing shitty video games.
>>736202094If you truly want to test your ability to get addicted to MMOs, just play OSRS Leagues in 2 weeks. It's the black tar heroin of addictive MMO experiences. If it doesn't hook you, nothing will, and you can consider yourself cured.
>>736202094Try an RSPS.
>>736203389that is the gayest fucking thing I have seen in my entire life
>>736202969trust the plan
>>736202094Do group ironman with close friends who you know aren't going to flake out. Then what you do feels like you're adding to the group contribution as a whole and there is a bit more purpose.
>>736202094>I start doing an activity like mining and I just feel like I'm wasting time.because you are wasting your time
>>736203496Not really, the average RSPS from 2005-2007 had way more gay cosmetics.
Try reading up on history and playing strategy games.
>>736203913Obviously you've seen way gayer shit than me. This should not surprise me.
>>736203530im trans btw if that matters
>>736203929that just makes strategy games worse.>tfw no strategy game where you can form and administer the Achaemenid Empire>tfw no game about Bactrian trade route logistics>tfw no character driven strategy RPG where you play as Mithridates VI >tfw no political intrigue strategy game set in Bosporus where you have to carefully secure your place n the world trapped between larger Greek states, the growing power of Rome, and the wild Scythian steppe
>>736202094>I start doing an activity like mining and I just feel like I'm wasting time.I feel that way no matter what video game im playing haha
>>736202094It is time anon. The Ironman life calls.
>>736202094because everyone doing that stuff is botting and the magic is gone. no big crowds gathering around with people spamming what they wanna sell because GE. can buy a million gp for $1. if you want community in online games now your only choice is some fagcord group for mil sims basically
mining and smithing is one of the most tedious activities in runescape. the furnaces and anvils are never near the rocks. so it feels like a lot of extra walking around and tedium. the other skills arent like this as much.
>>736204138Imperator is okay
>>736202094You grew up. And so did I.I spent countless hours in RuneScape, WOW, Warframe, and so.I saw countless big numbers.We had our fun. Time to move on.
