Am i getting old if i feel the same way, i get really excited to have some time off to finally game only to then realize its really exhausting and i'd rather just watch some series or stream

[โ€“] another_lemming 4 points 1 year ago

In the last couple of years I feel like that. Games that require a lot of time to get into, or to complete, feel like not accessible anymore.

I play either those games I used to for I already know them, or something with a very short route to dopamine. I've found playing Burnout series not causing me this burnout, kek. Just racing, no long-time investments, just crushing cars and see them fly. A good way to rest after a day of complicated tasks and decisions.
