- deepsun 5y agoOr until you're too old to play anymore :)
- JKCalhoun 5y agoHa ha, in fact I am waiting to get in to gaming when I am too old to do anything else. Same with all the TV shows people talk about — too busy, I'll catch up on Game of Thrones when I am wheelchair-bound.
- hnick 5y agoThis can work for me but it tends to reset after sleeping. Taking it further, it also tends to just make me sick of that game which just means it's time to find another. And a theme park MMO like FFXIV will always have something else to do, so I'll just start on a weird new obsession like collecting all of something. I think there's a lot to what the others are saying that it's an easy way to find "fulfillment" when it's otherwise lacking or feels too hard to reach. Which of course can make it a self-perpetuating spiral as it blocks achievement in other areas of life.
