What the fuck's happening to me, /r9k/? I no longer seem to find enjoyment in vidya and I'm playing them as I would do any other irrelevant chore. Anyone else having this problem?

I'm on my pc 24/7 and living off neetbux, I just don't enjoy games anymore. Story rich games sometimes manage to entertain me but even then I play a game just to see the ending. The feeling amplifies when I actually finish it.
your subconscious is trying to tell you that you only play video games because you want to escape reality.
you're a loser on welfare and escaping into the vidya world makes you momentarily forget it.
get a grip on yourself, op. get a hobby other than video games and try to meet people in a bar or something.
it's a long and bumpy journey, but you'll make it one day.
pick up an instrument or something. harmonicas are cheap and easy to learn and you can easily meet other people to jam with.

I already play an instrument. I have plenty of other hobbies too. Didn't get to socialising. I'm way too afraid of people. Gaming is the only pasttime for me and now that I don't enjoy it anymore I feel empty inside.
If its the ONLY thing you do, of course you wont enjoy it. Find other hobbies, dont do it all the time.
I watch movies for example, play the guitar or something sometimes. I might even go a day or two without vidya and it keeps it feeling interesting. If I get too frustrated or just dont enjoy games at the moment, I dont force myself to play them.
escapism only works when you're a kid

You're probably depressed.It stops you from enjoying things
You are becoming a nihilist.

Depression maybe. I have it and I enjoy nothing any more.

Well, I'm far from the "reality" in that picture.

You've outgrown them, video games are for children. Go find something else to do that produces a reward or develops a skill instead of sinking 60 hours into a video game where you have nothing to show for it.

I've thought about that and I think that's the case. I've been scared my whole life of doping up with antidepressants, though. What's it like being on medication? (if you are)
>>28888815
It's not so bad for me. Numbs the pain a little. Won't cure you overnight but it does help you cope with everyday life.
>>28888123
Yes, ever since I turned 30

Same here. As soon as I hit the big three zero, I lost all interest in video games.
It's your bodies way of telling you are an adult it's time to put away childish things and find a female to impregnate.you are doomed to remain unfulfilled
>>28888123
There is no good modern video game. None. That's why you are getting bored. There is not 1 single good fucking modern game that is well designed, deep, and fun.

If that is so, then the body sends a late messenger. Don't think I'll be finding that person any time soon.

remember a few years ago when you kept pooping in your pants? those were the first messengers. you should have listened.
