HolyAx 297 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I have like 1 hour a day for games these past months. So I get suprised how 28-30-year olds find time for this stuff when theres work/family/exercise to worry about all the time etc. Not to mention seeing friends etc. I guess I start to see why gaming is still considered immature by most adults.

Mr. House 3,371 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Gaming is immature. It's such a time sink. Games are too long nowadays. Remember the old days, very few games lasted more than a few hours. (they were hard to beat though) Even the JRPGs were relatively short compared to today. You can beat old school FF and Chrono Trigger in less than 30 hours. Now everything has to be a 100 hours open world with endless side quests. I'm having a hard time finding the time these days and I'm single with no kids. If I was a parent I probably wouldn't play at all, or maybe a few hours each week just for fun but I could no longer play tons of games. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kokujin 558 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 could never game for 1 hour and stop. give me a days(s) where I have 3-4 hours at my leisure to get something actually done. when healthy and gaming, I'll play 5-10 hours a week, over 2-4 sessions.

Cooke 2,026 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Usually 1-2 hours, not everyday. Like 4 or 5 days a week. Dota games are the perfect length. 45 min to 1:15 long games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post TLHBO 2,160 Posted October 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2018 This is probably why people stick with xbox deespite it sucking. If you can only afford an hour a week for gaming then you can spread your Forza time over 52 weeks until the next one comes out. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Unless you're heavy into work over 30, you have a lot of time otherwise. What are you going to do call your friends that are married and changing diapers to go out? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DynamiteCop 2,085 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I'm 33 and get in 8-20 hours a week, nothing remarkable but it allows me to hold interest and not get burned out. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-GD-X★ 7,729 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 it's tough man. ironically, i had more time to game when i was married, since we were stuck in a rut (worked/ate/watched tv/fucked/played video games when she slept/repeat). now that i'm dating again, i'm out a lot....and i have about 5 - 10 hours a week to game/watch tv. if there's something i really want to play/watch, i have to basically not go out, which sucks. but i'll do it. i'm so behind on so many games/tv series now. my ex and i would watch a lot of the same shows, so that made the tv part easy. but some of these chicks i meet hate watching tv, so... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kaz 2,439 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) depends. sometimes 6+ hours (playing lots multiplayer like doto) or like 3 hours for some sp. For me it's not the amount that i play in a single session it's more about on how many days of the week i play. Just play when you feel like it and have nothing better to do, otherwise if you want to play a lot just take 2 days "off" in a week. idc tho I love gaming. if this feeling of wasting time sets in i dont think about it or start drinking heavily(almost wrote heavenly). you guys should try it.

bhytre 2,753 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I just sacrifice a bit of sleep for a great game I want to play a lot. I don't care if I go all tired and unproductive to work. If they complain I say it's because all the workload they give us lmao. Some people who see gaming as immature mention "shopping" as one of their hobbies, so who are they to say gaming is a waste of time Quote Link to post Share on other sites
