anyone quit video gaming?

[Woodyy]

The only game I enjoy playing at the moment (FIFA 15) gets me so angry that it's almost not worth playing, games that don't anger me don't entertain me either..

I've got a week off work at the moment and I kind of miss really getting into a video game

[BlueMoon92]

haven't really geeked out over video games since like early high school, and I kinda miss the feeling tbh. I've got plenty of time/money these days, but can't really get into it like I used to.

[Stevenface]

I quit and it was for the better. I played some cod for 15 minutes today and legit felt bad because I could have been doing something else. But whatever works for you bro

[Pown]

I only game on weekends no time in the week

[ziggaman91]

I feel worse when I play games these days. Also I played a 3DS for a couple of days and actually had a smile on my face, Mario Kart 7 and a couple of others.

Last time I enjoyed a game was The Last of Us on PS3 and that was the first in a while.

I'm tempted to sell PS4 to avoid playing when Im bored but I intend to play certain games in the future like TLOU2, MGS5 and Uncharted 4. Not sure what to do.

[Matt8204]

I didn't quit them, I just ran out of time to play them. If a ever get some free time, I can still enjoy a gaming session. I still want to try FIFA 15 and GTA5.

[ConsiderPhlebus]

I started stepping away from video games when I was 14/15 and pretty much totally fell away when I got a job at 16. We do own a Wii and play it occasionally in spurts that last a few weeks once or twice a year.

It's a great decision. Literally almost anything else you can do would be better... even sleeping.

[Wolvuk]

I only single player game, which works pretty well. Playing Final Fantasy Type-0 at the moment. Last game I played before it was GTAV last November.

I beat the games and then shelve them. After being Type-0 I probably won't play another game until Arkham Knight in June.

[Angelus6]

Never going to quit gaming. I'm 24 years old turning 25 this june. It is a good way to unwind and have fun. It's the same entertainment for me as watching movies and tv shows which I do. Escape from life and play and watch movies etc.

Just keep it moderate, bruh. Dont spend hours playing a game. Play for like half an hour or an hour. It doesn't need to be your priority. Make other things your priority and if you're bored and want the time to go quicker, quickly switch on the xbox one or ps4.

What you can do is stop playing and sort out your stuff and then bring gaming back into it slowly. Just to break out of the habit.

Right now I'm playing GTA V again on ps4. Played some heists too. Good fun. I will admit I no longer play that many games. Only the great games that are worth investing time.

far cry 4, playing GTA V now. I'll get batman arkham knight in June. Witcher 3 and then maybe halo 5 this year. That's probably the only games I'm gonna play. Can't see myself playing anything else.

[Deezenutz]

What's funny is I bet most of the people itt who say they quit cause it's a waste of time or they have better things to do, just fill that time with other non productive things, like miscing for example

If you actually do then good for you, but even then it's a hobby and just entertainment. No different than watching a TV, miscing, reading, etc. Moderation is good for you.

[davesterr]

I quit gaming to spend my time more productively.
Now i misc instead of gaming.

[TheBrentmeister]

I grew out of it. There are only a few games I play casually to kill some time.

[aestheticicey]

Got to masters on LoL and recently quit.

[ZoRoX]

I quit gaming when I was 16 but started again when the PS3 slim came out and now waiting for to buy a PS4

[aket221]

yeah, just replaced it with p0rn (srs)

[bitchslayr]

Got to masters on LoL and recently quit.

same. i got to challenger 2 months ago and quit after getting 2 week ban

[RealAesthetic]

i can only play vids when i'm stoned - that said, i moved out to butt-fukk nowhere for a job and don't know anyone out here so that and gym is all i've got atm.

[InfinityThor]

It's still fun because I have 15+ years of FPS experience behind me, my skills appear to be permanent and transferable to any FPS game.

Join any pub server, get ridiculous K : D, top the board every map without fail... while drunk.

It's a good way to spend a hour or two.

[dawktwenty]

The last video game system I bought was N64.

Still break it out to this day, nomsayin

[midcoastking33]

I'm giving it one last shot

[Sharkanana]

Through highschool and undergrad I was addicted to video games.

CAL M CS:S Team
MMOs out the ass (Shadowbane brahs in the house?)
WC3 TFT

Those were the main culprits.

First year out of college I tried to keep playing, but just couldn't keep the interest. After spending 8 hours a day at a desk you just have no desire to spend 4 hours playing video games every day afterwards.

Nowadays I barely play anything. If I play it will be a few games of Dota 2.

Sports/Socializing is more rewarding.

[EMPKillaKev]

still play wow crew

also buying a ps4 for metal gear solid

[Brdprey]

i take breaks. but my schedule is as follows
530 wake,
600 arrive at work
330 is sometimes 430 leave
500 get to gym
700 get home from gym
800 finish cooking.
830 finish eating.
830-945 or 10 wow
1030 bed.

do it again.
so that little bit im playing is not much more then a distraction. but if your playing 12 hrs a day, every day. yea you need to take a break.
but im not your dad, brother or anyone important. so its just an opinion.
youll make it , chose what you think is right.

[Hitokiry]

33 years old and still playing, i fear the day my kids take away my games and won't let me play.

[barbariancase]

The best part about playing games was playing with your friends at your house, ****in mario cart, mario party, smash bras, monkey ball, halo. Now we're all grown up nobody wants to play video games anymore, and nobody goes to other people houses, instead we play online games.

[Hemunit]

I still play when I can to unwind and relax, but I don't have the desire/time to go ham and play for hours on end. Never grow up tho

We use xboxlive for Netflix, HBOGo, Hulu, Amazon Prime so it still gets a lot of use.

[CharolaisBull]

I quit in 2014, i was only playing GTA5 and the chit just got boring to me. I saw the games out there and I wasn't interested enough in any of them to drop $60 on. I'm one of those guys who grew up locked inside playing Xbox and had 2 new games a week.

[et3rnal]

yup.
about 2 months ago i gave my entire gaming rig to my brother. now i just misc from my work laptop.
when i'm bored at home i meditate, exercise, go see friends or clean my house.

life has improved 10 fold since i quit gaming... also, much easier to NOT watch porn when you don't have a huge screen to watch it on lol

[BBNobu]

Stopped for a few years but recently started playing again because I get to play with my friends. Stopped again and the only game I play now is Clash of Clans lol every fun PC game requires intense graphic card I'm not gonna fuking bother spending $1k for a desktop just for games.

[roko79]

its fun to play a game or two of NBA2K or Fifa when I get home from work or on the weekends, but I don't play it every day like I used to.
