I feel like a time wizard because I'm like 40, date several people, have a full time job, and still play games and read books. Where is everyone else's time going??
Is it kids? I don't have a kid. That might do it.
As a dad with two kids who still finds time to play games. It's the kids. I have to give up sleep to do it.
It's the kids. Kids take a lot of time. Most folks our age with kids don't have any time to themselves until it's 9/10 at night, then still have chores & work the next day.
Plus pets, home/vehicle ownership, commute times, etc.. Lots of things that some people have/choose to commit a significant amount of time. Sometimes it’s also not about the total time commitment, but the windows of time available. Things like kids/pets can make it difficult for games that assume you’re actually going to be continuously attentive over 20+ minutes at a time when you can be interrupted by breaking up a fight with the pets, having to let the new puppy outside regularly, hearing the cat about to hack up a hairball, cleaning up the ice cream the kid just dropped, etc..
