I’m in my late 30s now and over the past 6ish months, I have been gaming a lot less or I find myself gaming but not enjoying it.

I used to always have a game I wanted to play or revisit, but it seems that nothing is really catching my interest.

I’m mostly a retro gamer so I was always happy to revisit old titles. But now I get bored of them quickly.

    It depends on why you’re in the games and what is going on with your life.

    It can be an escape

    It can be a break

    It can be an outlet

    It can just be for fun

    It can be an exercise for the brain

    But if it’s not providing any of that maybe that’s not what you need right now. It can also be a thing you need the escape/break from.

    It’s just a thing for spending time without productivity so walking away from it isn’t a big drama. It’s going to be there later when you want it.

    There’s other things that can provide a break or be fun for a while until you find the joy of the game again.
