I know there are probably a lot of posts out there saying the same thing I am, about how gaming isn't what it used to be, since publishers are now more focused on making money than keeping a solid player base andaking a solid game.
I have been playing games my whole life from casually to competitively, even going as far as commentating games for leagues and tournaments, so it really breaks my heart when I turn on my PC, and realize I have no drive to play anything.
I end up booting up a random game, but then get no enjoyment out of it. Even when I know I won't be having that much fun, I still do it; maybe because I have nothing better to do, or maybe I hope that this time I'll really enjoy playing.
I don't know it's just a little rant. I'm posting this just so I get other people's thoughts on my situation and that of gaming as a whole. I really want to enjoy gaming as much as I used too, but it's hard at the moment. Do you guys suggest I try a take a break, discover a new genre of gaming, even a new hobby, or something else entirely?
Thanks for listening have and have a good day!
I think depression is at catastrophic levels of pervasiveness these days and folks are letting it color their perception of their hobbies, confusing feeling demotivated by boredom with feeling bored because they're not motivated.
