If you're having fun, then who cares. Are you having fun, anon?

I have 3 roommates in a town house, work 3 days a week at most, and do nothing but play video games and work out. I'm pretty happy with my life. I genuinely enjoy vidya and try to play as many as I can and fuck around with all types of genres and consoles.

Besides tons of other people have it worse. I could be a rock throwing sand nig kid forced into Isis cuz I was unlucky to be born in a third world Shithole. Or a poo in a loo

go for a one hour walk every day
chances are you'll just end up thinking about and missing your video games but at least you'll be healthier and your brain gets a chance to reflect on other things

That's about the amount of TV that the average american watch everyday.
If you do worthwhile things when you're not playing vidya, then you don't really have a problem.

Well, i was 16-19 at the time so maximum comfy/carefree days.
During the golden age of bc and wotlk.
Plus it was never a neet thing.
Many of my school buddys were into vidya and we played lots of times together from the afternoon till 2am at cafes.
Plus i had a
>trigger warning
gf during all that time.
Also many of those hours were sitting at shat/dala doind nothing and alt tabbing.
I think it was more of a good that a bad period.

I used to clock at about 120h every 2 weeks, and 5400 hours in one single game over the course of 2 years.

I wasted 2 years of my life, don't be me

Get a hobby. Work out, go fishing, take walks, learn to play an instrument, learn a new language. Focus more on work/school. If you REALLY want something that sucks up a lot of your time, get a bf/gf/kid.
