My ego brain made me put down videos games in my 20's?

[Naer]

Getting back into gaming while in my 30's. Was not expecting to do so. Is it because I'm experiencing "ego death"? Any tips on on killing my ego even further?

dude man...grim dawn is shit compared to POE. don't trust me, go check the video game forum or talk to any person that has ever played an arpg.

I try to read gaming talk to a minimum. if im stumped on something, i might post a question on the steam discussion, never understood gaming talk tbh. If one is talking about games, they aren't playing them and how is that person using his time

Anyway, POE seems nice. kinda into stardew valley atm, have factorio on que. Sandbox is a new genre for me

It's all good man...just saying there is a guild on poe just for anandtech players..up to you man.

Same here I have a high-end PC and haven't played loaded a game when I started full-time work. Before I use to game like 2-3 hours every day and now I haven't even logged into Steam since last year

The most intensive stuff I do on my PC now is downloading videos lol.

VR, man. it's a dangerous drug.

Seriously, no one asked what he means by 'his ego'?

i assume he means that his ego (self-worth) told him to stop playing video games, but now is cool with it.

You must be referring to Rocket League. That game is like meth.

I'm definitely referring to the street drug. I figure if he's trying to kill his ego, that's just the prescription he needs.

What the hell are you talking about?

 

[DaveSimmons]

Leggo my ego.

I never waffled about playing games. I'm never gonna give them up, never gonna put them down.
