Hi all,
I'm in my early 30s and play games fairly infrequently nowadays due to work/home commitments but when I do have time I nearly always spend it unable to choose what to play. When I do decide on a game, after an hour max I feel like switching off, even if it's a really good game. I feel frustrated and like I've wasted time.
Am I just bored of gaming as a genre? I don't know because a couple of times a year I'll play a game I really like and get absorbed by it but it's a pretty rare occurrence.
I have wondered if my lack of free time is making me anxious about using that time gaming and so I can't really 'sink into' a game and get into a flow with it.
I've reached the point where lately I've been thinking I should just sell my PS4 and give up gaming altogther but then I always feel a pull back towards it the next day, even when I know I don't have the free time to play.
Wondering if anyone else has this issue and how they deal with it? I smile when I think back to the days when I would be genuinely excited to play a game, then play it and become immersed and truly enjoy it. I really want to get back to that.
Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!
