Don't feel like gaming.. getting bored in minutes! anyone?
For the last 9/10 months, I haven't played a game seriously or at all! I want too but when i do it, i can't! it's really annoying. I used to LOVE playing video games being doing it since i was little, I loved playing competitively or FPS games in general but i can't seem to get myself too even start up a game now any tips too get a feel for it again? we have all been there before i hope! sorry for my terrible English btw.

*Update time*

It's been roughly 2 years and after posting this my life changed dramatically due covid I started freelancing as a photographer and helping people with mental help completely changing my life-style and routine, finding myself and more about who i am as a person and learning about myself daily.. i've kinda moved away from Video Games but still play a game if i want too, i've found more interest in helping others and new hobbies which are more outgoing and interesting too me so that's keeping me busy and healthy either way thank you for posting a comments and suggestions, it's much appreciated!

I used to be all about game play this and game play that but not anymore. Only story driven games and exploration with open world element will keep me playing games.

I just want a grand open world single player game as big as real life where you can explore hundreds of countries around the world. Probably hundred times bigger than Skyrim or GTV 5. I know, never going to happen. We have google maps but that doesn't count.
Eh, there is The Crew in mini America.

Do something else. When you eat too much chocolate, even if you love chocolate, you grow disgusted of it at some point. That's what happen to you I guess. Just go do something else, no matter what. It can also happen that your tastes change over time and maybe you're just done with gaming for the most part.

In my own case, I have the same thing, I can play to games, but only high quality ones, only the best for my tastes. Because the average game don't bring me anything exciting anymore. And I'm way more concious today of the value of the time I spended into gaming before and how it can be used for more usefull things.

It happening to me, i seem to buy a new game or replay a game, and play it for maybe 1 or 2 days and then get bored of it and don't play it for months, i have some great games i got in 2022 and i didn't beat them, because i got bored of the games so fast

Maybe it's to do with being more "stuck" in the real world instead of letting your mind float away into whatever fantasy world you use to let it drift to.

As it's now two years later, I'd be curious to know if the OP got back into gaming and how they rekindled their interest. Maybe they can give us an update, if they're still subscribed to this thread.

I am but after this message i'll unsubscribe considering it's 2 years old but an update i can do.

Cycle through things you have done in life before until you're not bored

drawing, painting, writing, reading, listening to music and just zoning out, meditating, etc.

I can't marathon game like I used to. I mean, I still can, but it takes a lot out of me. I think I'm one of those gamers that tenses their muscles a lot for not much of justification other than I will aim better, but I'm going to be sore as hell after a few hours.

I know this is old but the video game industry is hollow now they produce horrible titles and expect top dollar, very few games even worth investing time in these days.

During my youth, I was looking forward to a time when I could finally afford a top notch gaming computer to set every graphics option at ultra.

I now own such a computer but my interest in gaming (and everything else) has waned.
I have to force myself to start up a game and play for more than 15 minutes. It feels more like a chore than a past time sometimes. Same thing with watching movies.

Life is a slow journey onward to decrepitude and ahnedonia.

I wish I could find a hobby like you described. Thats awesome that you found a creative outlet beyond video games. I don't get too bored with video games like you however it seems like its call I do. It's my identifying factor. I collect transformers and paint them from time to time. Thats a very expensive hobby and very solo based. Of course, there is an online community just like there is for everything. I feel trapped in my own home. I do get out and I am very social when I'm out talking with workers of whatever business I'm at. Besides those small encounters I haven't talked to someone in person that isn't the same 2 people I live with in many years. Excluding random visits from my wife's mom.

I have no family here. My dad moved us when I was 12. My dad and mom asked if my sister and I if we wanted to move. At that point in my life, I was in 7 through 12 school. It was my first year in 7th grade. I was one of the few white kids in a primarily black school. I was bullied in a couple of classes. On the flip side I had some kids that I got a long with which made it tolerable. There were many instances of bulling. Mostly making fun of me or playing a small prank on me. The bulling I couldn't deal with well was the physical stuff. I had always been a quiet kid around people or teachers I didn't know well. So, when I was stabbed in the back neck every day with a penicil in history class, I never said anything. In Gym I was mocked for my lack of abilities in sports and my deodorant was constantly being stolen.

So of course I wanted to move. So, we did. At first it was ok then my social awkwardness was going on. People would try to talk to me but at that point the moving, the being bullied, puberty I wasn't sure who was pretending to be nice and who was generally trying to be nice. I basically shut down. There were a couple bulling instances, nothing physically.

A year after I graduated my sister moved to a different state (she was older than me by 3 years). I think she kept me grounded and was my social outlet. She and I always lived together until she moved away. So, video games, movies and reading are mostly what I did. I met people through jobs and AOL (that kind of ages me a bit). However, after all of the people I met, girls I dated, friends I ended up making throughout my teens and 20s.... they all moved. I literally mean every person I ever met, dated, made friends with no longer lives remotely close to me. My dad suddenly passed away in 2011, after that my mom moved back to her hometown. So, I was basically abandoned.

Now I am a house husband. Not by choice mind you. I had job a finally loved. For 6 years (which is the longest job I ever had [primarily because I got bored often]) I was a person that worked with adults with mental disabilities. Another social outlet per says Of course, it's against the rules to hang out with these people outside of working hours. Other co-workers I never met because everyone had their own people to take care of and mostly no over lapping. The only time I saw my coworkers were at quarterly meetings or some type of mandatory training.

When covid hit, I stayed home with my daughter which was 3 at the time. her mother was overly protective before this happed. So, this made everything way worse. She no longer trusted any family member of hers to watch her. I stayed home. For 6 months we never left the house. After that I would take her to parks for her to play outside. It hurt me to see her get so scared when another kid got too close, because of what her mom told her. She was basically conditioned to be scared of other children. Finally, we got masks and at that point she was 4 and still would be nervous around children but I would have to say, you got your mask on remember?

When she started school, I finally thought there was a light at the end of the tunnel. I was no longer bound to her for the whole day. for 7ish hours a day I was free. I thought for sure I could start working again. So, I reapplied for my old job. They didn't like my availability. The simple fact that I had to be at the school for pick up at 2:45, that I could not work weekends, holidays, or any other day that my kid either didn't have school was sick. I applied for other similar jobs and many different jobs. They all had the same answer. So, I thought maybe a stay-at-home job might suit me. The one that I felt was reputable needed a dedicated room for my computer. An office if you will for where I would only work. Didn't matter if no one was home, they required a room solely dedicated to work. I inherited a 1940s home, very small rooms but I am grateful. Needless to say, there wasn't a room I could use for just a workspace. The house has an unfinished basement, the main floor has 2 bedrooms. One for my daughter and one for me.

Every once in a while I will apply for random jobs. I never really get a response. When I do, they usually say our shifts start at X and end at Y. if you can't be there from those times, we can't hire you. No flexibility at all. My previous job was extremely flexible and that's why i was shocked when i wasn't hired back.

So here I am 8 to 3 just sitting at home. All I can do is play video games and watch tv. I have no other outlets really. I never really wanted to be a father, but it happened because her mom wanted a kid so bad. Now I am the primary caregiver. I rarely have adult conversations, and I just feel my time at home is wasted. I don't know what to do.
