This is not intended as rage bait.
Already in my Amiga time in the beginning of the 90's I was mostly interested in programming in AmigaBASIC and uning utility programs to paint, making music, etc., while all my friends ever did with their Amigas was playing games.
And now I sometimes really wish to be able to sit down with a game and relax playing it for a couple of hours. And I found Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 which hooked me for some time in multiplayer. But nobody is playing it anymore so the servers are empty. Also because I play so seldom I'm just dying all the time and can't really emerge into the game if I find a server with people on it.
Sometimes I buy a game because it looks so cool and the idea behind it is so awesome. Like for example Grand Theft Auto on the PlayStation, which is such a big open world. Or just a month ago I bought Cyberpunk 2077 because I have the hardware for it (graphics card which I'm normally use for AI) and Steam made it a bit cheaper.
But then I start the game and walk around not really knowing what to do, I try to follow the tutorials which are so boring, and then I just give up and close the game.
And this happens with all kind of games, browser games, AAA games, indie games, doesn't matter the genre.
Happens to me too. The only game I play a lot now is vanilla WoW (and mostly for the social aspect during raids and to talk with English speaking players). During the last few days I find myself enjoying doing difficult projects with Arduino, because it's more nuanced that gaming: there's a need to do physical stuff, to program, to debug, so there's higher level of engagement. The videogames felt great for me in my childhood, when they were something new and unexplored. Now I pretty much understand where each game plot goes, what the limitations if the games. I don't feel like I discover something. Also I do a hydroponics project. And I ride a motorcycle once a week. And workout regularly. All this replaced gaming, and in my childhood I played like all my free time, and didn't want anything else.
