Want to quit working and start playing games
Today I visited one of my friend's houses and he had a PS5 connected to a 60-inch television. I was so excited after seeing that. It has been my dream to play games on PS5 for several years. It is not that I cannot afford a PlayStation but I don't have the time right now for more entertainment. I'm focusing my energy more on doing some work than spending it on entertainment. Sometimes my mind says that I should distract myself from something but mostly it would be a short entertainment and not a long one.
Sometimes I watch some TV series or movies and that would be a good distraction for me. But it is only a short term. Unless I start a big TV series it is under control. But if I start playing games, I might start losing my power and start bringing a new routine to my life where there would be no extra activities for me than playing games and doing my day job. This is one thing that I fear and I don't get into games these days. I have been like this for several months about a few years back. Back then there were no extra activities for me than my day job.
Today I read a lot, learned a lot, and worked on some community projects too. But back then it was not the case and I had a lot of time to waste. Today after visiting the friend, I started to have a feeling that I should get back to that life again and at least once in a while. I remember playing a lot of games on my PC. I don't know how different the experience would be to play using a PlayStation but someday I want to try it.
I remember spending a lot of time playing GTA and other strategy games, especially Dota 2. Those were golden days. It was when I joined my day job and started playing the games in the first few years of my day job. I used to play a minimum of 12 hours a day. Every game in Dota 2 used to take a minimum of 1 hour and some games even go further than that. I used to play continuously one after the other. It was a very big addiction that I had. Later when I started focusing on learning and studying things related to my day job, I came out of this addiction. I stopped playing for nearly 2 years and later after I bought a new laptop, I wanted to test the performance of the laptop by playing Dota 2 again and finally got into the same addiction once again.
Today I have started to have a feeling that one fine day I want to stop working and start playing games like the good old days. I did not have any worry about my life or any fear about my life or health and I used to play for hours together. Today even for work, I'm finding it hard to sit in front of the system for hours together.

! help(no space) to get help on Hive. InfoIts sounds why healither what you are doing now compared to gaming! I feel like I am slowly (very slowly) kicking the addition aswell.
I still play idle games or mobile games, but not big games after work, mainly because I am tired xD
But I want to get back into learning useful stuff, not just new games :D
I actually stopped playing games on my mobile too. Not even small games because I know how it would affect me and drink my time.
And thats the next step for me :p
Yay! 🤗

I know exactly what you mean. As time passes and as we grow old. Weve got less and less energy to spend, not just on gaming but everything else. A huge chunk of our time is consumed by work.
I just retired from the corporate world. No time commitments to anything at the moment yet. But somehow Ive lost interest in gaming. And i still need to get work. So now i am exploring free lancing. My take is that I would be increasing hive power so that my gaming content (and others) would earn decently. And eventually have more time to do something else or anything i want. Not a personal advice to anyone though. Thats just me.
It is definitely a great relief to get relieved from the corporate world. I think I might keep going for at least another 5 years and then retire. But not sure.

Wheee, ain't that cool?
BTW, giving 12 hours a day to game makes you a hardcore gamer for sure and I wander how you've totally left that life behind.
This reminds me of my childhood when I didn't afford to buy game disks that I wished to and all I had my mind were that I'd buy all the games that I like when I have my own money. Now I have money, now I have resources but I don't get proper time to fulfill that wish now. I guess that's life what we're dealing with.
Exactly same thoughts. I have also wandered during my childhood days without money to buy game equipments and CD disks.
But i did take that as a challenge and after I bought my laptop, I played a lot of games and quenched all my thirst. Today I fear to get back to that life because it definitely drinks the time which I don't have much right now.
I see. But I still hope you get free time to taste the latest goodies/games.
Yeah hopefully soon.
Bala Bhai this has been the dream of many people like you. Due to lack of time and so many responsibilities it may get postponed a bit but hopefully someday we will live this dream too 😊
Yes indeed. There should be a time in the future where we wouldn't have anything else to do and just play games and complete it.
Maybe you have to do as I have. That after working for so long and retiring, I can set aside time to play and do some work.
The only bad thing about it is that the list of pending games is quite long.
Yeah I have a huge list of games that I wanted to play.
