Take a break, Games are supposed to be fun, not a chore.
one sign of aging is when you have so much to do that you feel too lazy to play anymore
You’re depressed
Try new games. New genres. Games that didn’t catch your interest before give a second chance. Games that are different from your current experiences; if you’re playing MMOs or fps games, try more story centric games. Or vice versa
I don’t enjoy them anymore, but I still play games idk why
Bro has reached saturation.
I only enjoy it with friends. To which I have none
real pain when you play some games to chill after work and you get smashed by a 13yo who plays 24/7.
fuck his pc broke!
This has happened to me multiple times. It just means that it’s break time.
This last one was different though. I’m too old to be competitive now so I switched to single player and it’s much better.
I have no desire to be a drop shotting quickscoping turbo Kyle…I’m just looking to unwind.
Gaming hasn’t really changed. I changed and I needed to change what I was playing.
Take a break from modern games.
Figure out how to play the games that made you fall in love with gaming.
Sometimes going back to the basics can change the direction of what games you’re interested in going forward.
It’s a burnout ya need to go touch some grass for a while then ya gonna remember how fucking awful that shit is and then gonna come back to games
It’s official, you’re getting oldÂ
Bro is depressed
Yeah, that feeling when the games that once brought so much happiness just don’t feel the same anymore
Maybe your already max level and you just need new adventures in life
Buy new games, buy synthesizers !
You just didn’t play the right game bruh
Because you know where they got the inspiration from or because they just arent fun anymore?
I will give you three random game suggestions that I think can make you want to play again, mount and blade warband, RimWorld, and the rock of ages, maybe even if you just want to chill you can try some kingdoms and castles or some smaller game like snkrx, you really can’t be bored of games unless you just play the same category over and over again
It’ll pass, just try smth different or new, you will be back
The same I felt when I realised that watching cartoons wasn’t giving the same feel that I used to get as a kid & wanted to know more about news.
This happened despite forcing myself to watch my favourite cartoons. Then I understood it’s called “aging” & accepted it & moved on.
Brother, I’m with you! Take it easy, you will get used to it
Is it that you can’t enjoy games anymore or that you can’t enjoy NEW games anymore?
Is it that you can’t enjoy games anymore or that you can’t enjoy NEW games anymore?
I can go 1-2 months without touching my PS5 then play and enjoy it, don’t overthink it
55 and loving Zelda echoes of wisdom
Had not played in 6 months but for me this game is perfect in pace, vibrancy, problem solving and difficulty
Welcome to the club, I hit that wall at 25.
It seems pretty common mid 20s when your brain finishs developing.
Don’t worry. It’s temporary. It just means you have not found the next great game yet. I panic like this every 3 months. It’s normal. If you’re worried you don’t enjoy games anymore, you probably love playing. Just wait until you find the next one. Don’t stop trying out new games.
I only play games with friends at this point. Much more enjoyable
Maybe there Is something bigger to fix first
