Grindy games simulate productivity. You put in hours of effort, and get rewarded by seeing your effort get directly translated into some kind of ingame reward like a level up. That makes them perfect for NEETs who crave something to strive for in their daily lives.
AAA games simulate not having a boring as fuck life. That makes them perfect for normies.

You need to find 'that game' that reignites the spark anon. It's gonna be tough though, because I was also in the same position as you but then ended up replaying World of Warcraft because of friends pressuring me to return.
Don't do what I did though. Ended up playing it for a few weeks, enjoyed every bit of it and had a good laugh with friends but then it hit me that the game is total shit, so I quit again.

Take a break from video games. Sometimes you just lose interest in a thing and need something else in your life.
>>320490272
My problem is I just can't finish anything I've started, I often choose to nap instead of playing videogames.

I know that feel bro.

You might be on to something here. Sounds plausible. For the past few years I've really enjoyed the feeling of grinding up money, XP, skills, etc. in mere flash games. And I spend a lot of time on Civ 5, EU4, and now Monster Hunter.
>>320492253
I've noticed that I purchase more games the older I get, but rarely play any of them. I have time to play them, but I never feel like I'm in the mood.

At least I'm not the only one.
So far it didn't happen to me with XCX, though.
It's not even like I completely stop playing them.
Sometimes I go back to them after half a year or even a year and finish them in one sitting.
>think i'm burnt out on video games
>i'm actually just putting 1,000 hours into Company of Heroes
>play an hour of something else, close it, open CoH
i am fucking obsessed with this game. it somehow never gets old to me. i think i've been playing it for 3 years straight now??
CoH 1, CoH 2, doesn't matter.
Fallout 4 can't even pull me away, i still haven't beat it yet.
help. me.
>>320492890
you've trained your brain to reward you with delicious chemicals when you open up CoH.
you gotta rewire yourself man

I feel bad. I have no real proof that it was a female player, but he/she was indeed a good person. Can't forget her even after a year, even if the distance from South Korea to Spain is considerable.
What the fuck should I do to feel better.

I know that feel bro.
In the last 15 years playing online games and putting in like a million hours, I never forgot the names of all the people I saw. Never.
Even people that never talked to me are still in my memories. Standing around, talking about shit, I was listening to all of it and know so many secrets things. Talked to gamemasters, that don't even work there anymore, got information that was never supposed to share, made screenshots and all the stuff....
Man, I miss the time where onlinegames had something magical to me.....
>>320495970
She even told me she got a boyfriend and managed to enter university thanks to my support. I didn't mind the bf thing as long as she was happy; thats the kind of care I developed spending time with her online... But i really miss herq-q
I have a really hard time sleeping. Sometimes I'll lay in bed for hours while so tired, and yet I can't fall asleep. When I finally manage to sleep, I sleep for three hours
I hate this.
