JonDnD 2,626 Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 And i think i came to the realization that i wont, or at least not too often. I get bored with games too quick anymore. I tried playing Miles Morales again and got to the part in the apartment when you had to look around at shit and fix the power. I was just like yeah, this is a waste of time and stopped playing. Tried Horizon FW again and just stopped caring at some random puzzle. Such a bland game. Even Forza coming out soon man i love cars and shit and i dont even really care 🤷♂️ I dont even know why i bought a PS5. I really liked TLOU2 and RNC but outside of that , nothing. Im playing COD cause it was free for the month. And thats actually pretty fun since i skipped the last few of them. Really the only games that have hooked me in recent times were Elden Ring and Witcher NG. I feel like RPGs are the only genre im mildly excited for. Hoping Starfield slaps.

Mr. House 3,371 Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I have more fun selling games than playing them now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-GD-X★ 7,738 Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 i can relate to this. i think i'll always play, but it has to be something i'm truly interested in. also, if i have more important things to do, i'll put gaming on the back burner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,626 Posted July 25, 2023 Author Share Posted July 25, 2023 I think it might be because everything is the same. Not trolling i feel like Sonys games are just the same old bullshit. Its tired. Same with most of the big AAA pubs. Not many chances taken anymore and most of the indie stuff is the same too. And junk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Remij 4,679 Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I'll play games for a long time yet.. maybe not for forever, but I guess that depends on what happens with gaming in the future. It helps that my wife loves gaming too though. I do find myself more interested in the technology of games as I go on though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And junk. Whenever I feel like nothing new is really catching my eye, I go back and play some classics. Both ones I've played before... but also ones that I always wanted to try but never did for whatever reason. I find the simplicity and charm of older games gets my head right about what's fun and important in games. Also Jon, I know you're probably not one to try some of the more "out there" shit... but that's one of the things I absolutely love about PC gaming... there's a literal shit ton of gems out there which offer fun and unique gameplay and experiences.. they just don't always have the highest production values.. but that shit really doesn't matter, they can be fun as fuck. Maybe try some off the wall shit sometimes and see if it catches your interest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,626 Posted July 25, 2023 Author Share Posted July 25, 2023 I check on steam here and there. Nothing really of interest. There are a lot of last gen games i skipped that ill probably pick up at some point when they are dirt cheap. GamePass has had me enjoying some games i normally wouldnt have tried. I like that about it. I bought the PS5 because id figure there would be some more variety but once you burn through the few Sony 1p that thing is literally an xbox with a couple FF games.

MalaXmaS 647 Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I don't know but lately I have been just playing racing games. Anything else, I just put aside after a few hours. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmaltese★ 2,566 Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Taste changes, hobbies change and how one wants to spend free time as it becomes more limited changes too. I game a fraction of what I use to but it will prob be something I always do on and off but it's no where near close to one of my favourite hobbies now. Also as we grow older the wonder and awe of games has greatly lessened. The current gaming climate would've blown my mind as a child. Imagine being a kid and having GP, PS Extra, these insane production levels, epic scales, etc. I was playing like 2/3 games a year and digging out every second of content out of them. Just play what hits and don't play what you're not enjoying, so much other stuff to do that it's no biggie. It's exciting though when a game really hits or surprises you again, usually only happens once or twice a year but worth it for when it does. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lynux3 2,086 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 The biggest problem for me personally is that I feel like I can’t find the time to sit down for hours and play video games like I used to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sabo 442 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I feel you and was honestly in the same situation until I started trying more indie games. You can find a lot of unique shit if you're willing to give stuff a chance. Its not always going to be executed well but if what you're after is a fresh experience or something different then you can find that in spades if you look around. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sugarhigh 519 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Steam Deck is where it's at right now. It's my full time Rocket League device and also plays most of my backlog. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lostfool 680 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I'm going to play video games until the day I die because I'm not a pussy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DynamiteCop 2,086 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I have no time anymore so I don't touch games really. Weekdays are full from beginning to end, and during the days on weekends I want to be out doing stuff. That's why I've gotten so into VRChat on the weekend nights. You can drink, and more directly socialize in a totally safe environment while also having the ability to game simultaneously. It hits all the checkboxes of what I want to be doing and have time for anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TLHBO 2,162 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 "I always wondered when i was young if i would play video games forever" And then you got an Xbox, and the answer was a resounding "No" 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They dom't play games because they have none, instead they just cheerlead for a multi-trillion dollar corporation who abuses them at every opportunity. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
