When did you first realise that you no longer enjoy videogames?

>losing enjoyment of something once means you'll never enjoy it again

Try taking a break from games, or play something outside of your comfort zone. The former will let you build appreciation of what you missed or let you find a new hobby, and the latter might lead to a new favorite genre. or you could just kill yourself

When i got rejected
I havent enjoyed anything since then
>>
When i realized i cared more about story than gameplay, started reading books instead ever since.
>>
If you don't enjoy vidya, then stop playing it. Get off 4chan.
>>
Why do you keep making these threads? I don't enjoy anything.
>>
>>337031243
I can relate to this
>>
When I started to not enjoy everything I did
>>
>>337029176
Never, fortunately.

What is unfortunate though is that video games are the only thing I ever enjoyed my entire life.

this, people that tell me "i like x videogame for the history" why not try other medium, videogames are good because gameplay, history is something on top, better go to /tv or something i dont know what are you doing here.

After I got a PS3, I was 21. Most games were boring to me, and the loneliness and emptiness I felt while playing a simulation by myself in my room made me feel sad.

Did the KnK movie ever happen? I unironically liked the show to continue with the movie.
>>
The second I got my industry job.
>>
>>337033492
Yeah it did. Personally I liked it less than the show because it was even less. Nothing is adequately explained in the series and the movie is even worse. Gorgeous visuals though, as per usual with Kyoani.

Lots of people liked it though, and if you didn't find the show annoying then you'll probably like it too
>>
>>337029176
But I do enjoy games.
>>
>>337033951
it was even less explained I meant to say
>>
>>337033630
Same here. Games are so predictable and boring once you know how they work.

I started learning Japanese and go lift on a regular basis, while I do want to play games I don't have time left to do so currently.

I got a bigger problem though, after going to the gym I became aware of me being an ugly fuck.
I always thought I was slightly above average in looks but I've a big nose, a bad haircut and a chubby body compared to others.

I'm disgusted by myself right now, kill me.

>>337031243
Well same for me then the PS4 came out

Mass Effect 3 really dampened my enjoyment of video games. Hasn't been killed yet, but the industry is trying really hard.
>>
27 year old here and still into video games, dunno if that makes me an introverted normalfag that posts on /v/ but fuck it's one of the only things in my life I still give a shit about.
>>
>>337034335
I know that feel, even though I'm /fit/ I look like a fucking chimp. No wonder I can't get any pussy.

occasionally have fun with some titles for a few days but that's it.

When I got a job playing video games...then visiting /v/ this place made me hate every video game in existence. Even games I loved in the passed. /v/ is the downfall of video games
>>
>>337034620

Having said that after completing MGS5 and feeling super disappointed and a little depressed on how our industry fucks anything good I took a short break from video games to catch up on movies/TV shows/YouTube channels I've subscribed to and that probably helps my disposition on video games

When Halo got rid of splitscreen and brought in microtransactions.

It just makes me sad. No company releases a bad game thinking it's good, so when I find flaws I feel sympathy.

Microtransactions are fine because of all the DLC being free. But it not having any split screen options is unacceptable.

This, just take a break from vidya and focus on other hobbies for a while. Reading Fate and watching a walkthrough of demon souls to get into the souls series. I'm playing DaS after. I can't afford a PS3 atm so that's why.

fuck off back to your containment board.

Pretty much
I still get exited and it's nice to see how technology advances over time, but i usually just replay old game

When I realized most games are a variation of something else. And it feels like 'been there done that'

I still enjoy Souls and Monster Hunter a lot though.

A few years ago but then I started playing more Japanese games and enjoyed them again. Still do.
>>
>>337029176
I do. Just not new ones.
>>
>>337029176
24 and still going strong.
It's more likely that I'l just stop having the time to play as opposed to not enjoying them.l
>>
>>337031391
This, I still love games, if you don't then fuck off to some other board and quit bitching about how you got older and don't enjoy vidya anymore.

>100 unplayed steam games
>nothing I want to play
on the plus side I've really been getting into I Am a Hero
>>
>>337029176
I still enjoy old games and series that I really like (mainly the Etrian Odyssey series). I still like new games but I read a lot more than I used to now. I think it's been good. I've developed a discerning eye for games I know I'll like so I save a lot of money on games now and the library is free. My wallet is happy.

Go on a diet, get a better haircut. And if you really have to get a nose job. Bam i found the answers to your problems.
