Perhaps, but at least then you wouldn’t have done the exact same thing anyway just with an potentially expensive piece of personal tech sitting in a pond.
Oh who am I kidding of course it was for fucking Reddit gold or whatever
Same. Have only played 1 game this year. A Yakuza game. Beat it and it's already been a couple of months since then. I honestly have no idea what people are playing today that they can't quit. Modern games are mostly trash.
I find most addicts are playing multiplayer shitgames, which make a point of making their games addictive.
Myself I play skill-based single-player action games with slow, long burns. Like Iceborne, and now Nioh 2. I'm not addicted to gaming so much as it's the only thing I like to pour my free time into. Granted, I should be making better career prospects so that I can live comfortably, but I'm broken like that. Thankfully my current job involves heavy lifting, so I'm getting SOME exercise to stave away aches from lack of fitness.

Such is life. Debating selling my consoles and PC at this point, whatever free time I get I’d rather spend it on a tangible hobby since that free time is more and more limited the older I get
Yeah cuz that shits easy so that’s the that’s the time when I multitask, call my mom and dad catch up on YouTube videos. Have you moved away from your parents yet? When you do every phone call turns into an hour of nothingness but you can’t hang up because it’s your folks
The last call I had with relatives after not talking to them in over 3 months was 20 minutes. I also actually text my mom and dad so they never feel the need to talk for more than 15 minutes on the phone with me. Maybe stop being such a weak willed gay and stress how busy your life is, and dedicate chores to the evenings that you get home from work. This is the formula to actually getting free time for yourself.
>”I want to play animal crossing” >turn it on for her >try to go upstairs >”no I want you to watch” >watch her catch bugs and fish for 2 hours
I’d trade all my games away to have that experience.
Man, until 3 months ago I had a shitty car and lived with roommates. Now I have my own place and a more expensive car and I feel so tied down. I lost my job and want to go move in with my mom for a while, but I can't because all my stuff is keeping me here. It would be cool to cut my belongings down to just two suitcases and be free.
>an hour and thirty minutes to prepare to feed the dogs >an hour to feed them
Anon you aren't supposed to fuck your dogs for an hour every time you interact with them.
>Responding to obvious bait.
It's that faggy fucking reddit tweet joke you retard. The one that goes: >food (reasonable money) >rent (reasonable money) >something retarded (huge money) >help my family is dying
It’s not about how long it takes it’s about knowing that I have to do it so I don’t want to get in the zone just to be taken out of it to feed my dogs who take like 15 minutes to eat (my one dog literally eats one piece of food at a time) then they always want to be let out immediately after to poop, so I’m like fuck it I’ll wait it out. But aside from that it’s all a culmination of every event in the day you know? The more you do the less motivation you have to do something else, and whatever you do you do it slower and slower until you’re like damn I don’t really wanna do anything anymore

the very definition of an emasculated cuck
Every girlfriend I've ever had has been specifically drawn to me more and more based on how happy or how much fun I'm having at any given moment. Then, they proceed to ruin whatever it is that's making me happy or bringing me fun because on some level they're jealous of it. Women are a meme. They have some innate drive to just prevent good times and I have no idea why the fuck they would be designed that way. On some level they're all like some black person high on bath salts, ranting and raving, taking their clothes off, pushing their limits with you more and more and you're just like "ma'am can you calm down please...ma'am put the knife down...ma'am this is your last warning" and then they eventually just rush you and you have to put them down.
logically speaking anything outside knocking her up and helping raise kids runs counter to biological interests. So kinda natural they try to sabotage anything not benefiting.
The definition of a sentient being is someone endowed with the free will to resist or just outright deny "biological interest" in favor of THEIR interest. If YOUR interest is identical to nonconscious drives, then I can say you lack consciousness. These women you refer to aren't people, literally. If you are incapable of free will outside your hormones you don't have a mind or ego that sees out of your eyes and are a meat-machine.
>Every girlfriend I've ever had has been specifically drawn to me more and more based on how happy or how much fun I'm having at any given moment. Then, they proceed to ruin whatever it is that's making me happy or bringing me fun because on some level they're jealous of it
I wish I didn't know this feel
women literally go fucking insane if you don't keep them pregnant. it's why over half the female population in the west is now on anti-depressants. they're all completely cuckoo from failing their biological imperative and trying to mask that existential failure with hormone-altering chemicals.
your girl dont want you to watch, she wants ATTENTION, and you're blowing it by cucking yourself out of a fun time because font have the balls to game yourself or FUCK her the way shes begging you to. you know what, you deserve it, humanity is better off if you dont reproduce
Every married man I know is miserable. I fail to see what any of these women bring to their relationships. Sex can only motivate a man so much, and most marriages are sexless. I truly pity married men, they deserve so much better.
everyone i know who's single is miserable, while everyone I know who's married is pretty satisfied. the only complaint I ever hear from married guys is that they aren't having as much sex as they want, but the main complaint I hear from my single friends is that they aren't getting any sex at all.

Also you're full of shit. You never once mentioned how much time you waste shitposting on Ganker.

also unless you are leaving out a ton of details you "wife" sounds like a selfish cunt who doesnt care about you at all.
do shit like errands and laundry during the week you lazy gay. inb4 >b-but im too tired
power through it. its better to just do it during days you work than on your days off. unless youre working 12 hours a day then you have time for it
I only play like 1-4 games a year or whatever so no need.
But sure half assedly tried quit using computer for few weeks when it broke and waited for warranty parts. Lasted like 2 days until used old spare parts to build some sort of computer
When you're that far down in the dumps it's hard to muster the will to go through the process of selling it. I've been thinking about selling my PC for months, and sometimes I want to just smash it with a sledgehammer so the temptation to play is gone in an instant.
That guy sounds like a dick but so is she. Alimony is the most cancerous gnomish concept to exist. Why can't people just break up without doing that shit?
Damn that’s actually really sad. People like to compare video game addiction to gambling but it’s even worse because at least with gambling there’s an infinitesimal chance that you’re going to actually win. With games, once you spend money, it’s gone. There’s no ROI. I cringe knowing that in its prime I probably dropped a grand on Hearthstone, and now all those cards just sit there in a digital collection. Free money for blizzard and nothing to show for it
Its fine if its "Ima buy some skins to support the devs" but it gets fucked when you have these games that even allow you to spend that much doing very basic gameplay shit the average Ganker user wouldn't touch. But that shit works on people who aren't aware.
you need to weaponize gaming for good.
Like play in other language to learn it.
Theory craft to learn excel in a fun manner
Code bots to learn programming.
All live services have same goal - getting you addicted so you burn more resources on them. So fuck em back as hard as you can. Your relationship is hostile by nature
wrong, if wanna learn excel, play any firaxys/paradox game, MIN/MAX everthing, spreadshets for every scenario, statistics for battle outcome, savescum, highest wield in 20 turns, 50 turns, 100 turns. in time you'll learn to hate gaming as a whole and by the time you abandon it you'll be excel expert certificated which will look great on your resume for literally everything. Thats how how i quitted stellaris and civ. tryed to get back to gaming through fallout 4 but the boston crashes saved me coming back to waste my time
captcha :GTAKKG
No I got a job and I also started learning how to make music so now when I play games it's fun again. You losers need to get a job and some friends. >how do you get friends
I don't know I've had the same group of friends since 9th grade in 2009
Insanely lucky if true. Most people fall out with their high school friends because teenagers are retarded. Its been way easier to make friends with adults.
Most people from my high school are still hanging out in their respective groups but lots of people found new friends. When I look on social media I'd say every 2/3 people from my H.S is still photographed with someone they knew in 2014 when we graduated. I didn't expect it either but it's very nice to have a solid group to always have then you can have other small circles if you want.
>fat ugly bastard
I got expelled from my high school and went to a private school with people I had zero connections with so Idk this feel. I doubt if I went to a regular high school it would be much different. The one friend I had who I reconnected with as an adult ghosted me.
This is what people with game "addiction" don't understand. If you have nothing else in your life but videogames you will get depressed really quick and blame videogames because of that. If you read the post on that reddit group from OP you will read a lot of people saying they get depressed as fuck after stopping playing.
While I occasionally will get so into a game I can't put it down and slack off on my other responsibilities, it's far more often that I can't find a game to get into so I "procrastinate" with busywork.
>06-12 >games are perfect, too many to play >internet is cool, meet loads of friends
>now >games are beyond horrible without arguement. >internet is either a hugbox or a gay camp full of disgusting third worlders and seething chinks
Don't be afraid to move on, you are probably missing out on the next fun chapter. I come here less and less, I had a few minutes while waiting for a call and came out of curiosity. Like going back to Newgrounds it is fun to look at the cover and think back, but inside it is nothing but a wrotten fruit. The worthless bugs who are content within it dont warrant anything
>i polluted this public body of water to get rid of my poor impulse control
this is what's actually turning the frogs gay, looking at your shitty vidya collections
yeah, but then i realized i actually didn't like the games i was playing, all slow burn drip feed garbage that never left me satisfied.
switched to playing arcade games and retro stuff, and now i basically never play for longer than an hour but i enjoy that time so much more.
lmao, if you have to destroy your PC to stop playing it, then you're going to have a real hard time dealing with actual, real problems.
I've stopped playing games for a while at various points. Like I had a really packed semester where I didn't play anything for several months. More recently I've just moved on to other hobbies and won't play anything for a few weeks at a time. It's partly just because of y'all and how much you guys suck.
>lmao, if you have to destroy your PC to stop playing it, then you're going to have a real hard time dealing with actual, real problems.
But I go scorched earth on all my problems, especially the real ones. The guy who sexually harassed me at work, for instance, sits behind bars.
i can't seem to really get addicted to anything. i try and try, but I inevitably get bored with any GaaS game after like 12-18 months and drop it cold turkey and never think about it again.
I once had a roommate that got kicked out of his house by his wife because he played PC to much. He and his wife just had a baby and apparently would not help her with the baby and just play PC all the time. Also he chose to have internet over food when he lost his job, so he got really skinny.
Mostly final fantasy online, he was a good roommate. Just stayed in his room the whole time except for bathroom and to get food. Also didn’t drink or do drugs but I guess gaming was his drug
I’ve tried to stop on and off a few times, my attempts never stuck but I ended up gaining traditional art and guitar as extra hobbies. That’s a plus at least
i might this summer. probably not forever but i'm getting tired of the internet and media in general. even the good stuff, i can't be assed to enjoy.
biggest problem i'm facing is that i can't think of anything else i want to do.
I'm mostly over video games. I'll play an occasional new release like hogwarts/atomic heart/zelda, but when im done with them itll be weeks before i play anything. Even then its likely just a few rounds of tf2 or something. so little interests me anymore in the vidyasphere. its given me time to take up hobbies like drawing. one day i might make a comic or something.
Yeah, I quit my main games by uninstalling them. Now I play the odd stuff that I bought years ago and forgot about.
how are gays so weak willed
just turn off the computer and walk away lmao
Because people with shitty lives have nowhere to run but their shitty vices hence why the cold turkey method is so popular
>t. porn, drug, computer and internet addict
>t.gay
ftfy retarded ass
If it's so popular and good for you then why don't you do it?
>just turn off the computer and walk away lmao
and then what? replace one void-filling activity with another?
Perhaps, but at least then you wouldn’t have done the exact same thing anyway just with an potentially expensive piece of personal tech sitting in a pond.
Oh who am I kidding of course it was for fucking Reddit gold or whatever
You could always try getting a job
ok mr goldbergstein
I didn't have to try. Games just go dull and uninteresting. I can't even force myself to play one anymore.

I have no reason to quit because I am not a mentally ill subhuman that falls into mental pits due to material things.
This guy's achieved nirvana and uses it to post on Ganker - Video Games
You are goddamn right
I don't need to. The only addiction I have is opioids.
No, I have my life in order. If I want to game as a hobby I will game as a hobby.
Why not just sell it?
When you're that far down in the dumps it's hard to muster the will to go through the process of selling it. I've been thinking about selling my PC for months, and sometimes I want to just smash it with a sledgehammer so the temptation to play is gone in an instant.
>play video games
or
>live with a woman with 9 cats who's approaching 30

kek, women, not even once
That guy sounds like a dick but so is she. Alimony is the most cancerous gnomish concept to exist. Why can't people just break up without doing that shit?
Damn that’s actually really sad. People like to compare video game addiction to gambling but it’s even worse because at least with gambling there’s an infinitesimal chance that you’re going to actually win. With games, once you spend money, it’s gone. There’s no ROI. I cringe knowing that in its prime I probably dropped a grand on Hearthstone, and now all those cards just sit there in a digital collection. Free money for blizzard and nothing to show for it
Its fine if its "Ima buy some skins to support the devs" but it gets fucked when you have these games that even allow you to spend that much doing very basic gameplay shit the average Ganker user wouldn't touch. But that shit works on people who aren't aware.
you need to weaponize gaming for good.
Like play in other language to learn it.
Theory craft to learn excel in a fun manner
Code bots to learn programming.
All live services have same goal - getting you addicted so you burn more resources on them. So fuck em back as hard as you can. Your relationship is hostile by nature
wrong, if wanna learn excel, play any firaxys/paradox game, MIN/MAX everthing, spreadshets for every scenario, statistics for battle outcome, savescum, highest wield in 20 turns, 50 turns, 100 turns. in time you'll learn to hate gaming as a whole and by the time you abandon it you'll be excel expert certificated which will look great on your resume for literally everything. Thats how how i quitted stellaris and civ. tryed to get back to gaming through fallout 4 but the boston crashes saved me coming back to waste my time

That's a case from bequiet!, I think I own the same.
No I got a job and I also started learning how to make music so now when I play games it's fun again. You losers need to get a job and some friends.
>how do you get friends
I don't know I've had the same group of friends since 9th grade in 2009
Insanely lucky if true. Most people fall out with their high school friends because teenagers are retarded. Its been way easier to make friends with adults.
Most people from my high school are still hanging out in their respective groups but lots of people found new friends. When I look on social media I'd say every 2/3 people from my H.S is still photographed with someone they knew in 2014 when we graduated. I didn't expect it either but it's very nice to have a solid group to always have then you can have other small circles if you want.
>fat ugly bastard
I got expelled from my high school and went to a private school with people I had zero connections with so Idk this feel. I doubt if I went to a regular high school it would be much different. The one friend I had who I reconnected with as an adult ghosted me.
This is what people with game "addiction" don't understand. If you have nothing else in your life but videogames you will get depressed really quick and blame videogames because of that. If you read the post on that reddit group from OP you will read a lot of people saying they get depressed as fuck after stopping playing.
While I occasionally will get so into a game I can't put it down and slack off on my other responsibilities, it's far more often that I can't find a game to get into so I "procrastinate" with busywork.
>9 cats
uh wait a sec
anyway how come no woman wants to bankroll me for years and be my mommy while i game? to be fair she is probably huge
i meant to reply to this
now the frogs and the turtles are gonna get addicted asshole
Took a pic of this big boi today. Looks pretty gay.
thats def a gamer turtle
not sure i'd throw a PC in a lake but it makes sense to dislike distractions, always preferred studying at the library to avoid them
please dispose of your electronics responsibly
i regularly hit a gaming fatigue where i start a game and quit within 10 minutes that's when i take a month off.
>06-12
>games are perfect, too many to play
>internet is cool, meet loads of friends
>now
>games are beyond horrible without arguement.
>internet is either a hugbox or a gay camp full of disgusting third worlders and seething chinks
Don't be afraid to move on, you are probably missing out on the next fun chapter. I come here less and less, I had a few minutes while waiting for a call and came out of curiosity. Like going back to Newgrounds it is fun to look at the cover and think back, but inside it is nothing but a wrotten fruit. The worthless bugs who are content within it dont warrant anything
>i polluted this public body of water to get rid of my poor impulse control
this is what's actually turning the frogs gay, looking at your shitty vidya collections
yeah, but then i realized i actually didn't like the games i was playing, all slow burn drip feed garbage that never left me satisfied.
switched to playing arcade games and retro stuff, and now i basically never play for longer than an hour but i enjoy that time so much more.
God I fucking hate redditors.
shit floats
I wish I could be addicted to video games again
wasteful fag
i wonder if you cleaned that up if parts of it would still work.
lmao, if you have to destroy your PC to stop playing it, then you're going to have a real hard time dealing with actual, real problems.
I've stopped playing games for a while at various points. Like I had a really packed semester where I didn't play anything for several months. More recently I've just moved on to other hobbies and won't play anything for a few weeks at a time. It's partly just because of y'all and how much you guys suck.
>lmao, if you have to destroy your PC to stop playing it, then you're going to have a real hard time dealing with actual, real problems.
But I go scorched earth on all my problems, especially the real ones. The guy who sexually harassed me at work, for instance, sits behind bars.
I quit for like 5 years.
Though, I just replace it with anime shit, so it didn’t help.
i can't seem to really get addicted to anything. i try and try, but I inevitably get bored with any GaaS game after like 12-18 months and drop it cold turkey and never think about it again.
Probably won't have to as I slowly lose interest over time
I once had a roommate that got kicked out of his house by his wife because he played PC to much. He and his wife just had a baby and apparently would not help her with the baby and just play PC all the time. Also he chose to have internet over food when he lost his job, so he got really skinny.
top kek, what did he play?
Mostly final fantasy online, he was a good roommate. Just stayed in his room the whole time except for bathroom and to get food. Also didn’t drink or do drugs but I guess gaming was his drug
>itt people humble bragging about having someone who loves them and chose to be with them
What did you expect?
nu-Ganker is full of 2016 election tourists and normalfags.
Especially on a saturday afternoon during am*rican posting hours.
>calls people election tourists
>post a picture of tucker Carlson in a sombrero
And we’re the new Fags
>>post a picture of tucker Carlson in a sombrero
>tucker Carlson
Lmao. There are only a handful of pre-2013 gg tourists left here. Everyone using this board is a tourist at this point.
I feel like if I quit playing games entirely I would just jack off more and be less productive
Video games are so bad these days that it's the perfect time to quit
I’ve tried to stop on and off a few times, my attempts never stuck but I ended up gaining traditional art and guitar as extra hobbies. That’s a plus at least
i might this summer. probably not forever but i'm getting tired of the internet and media in general. even the good stuff, i can't be assed to enjoy.
biggest problem i'm facing is that i can't think of anything else i want to do.
I'm mostly over video games. I'll play an occasional new release like hogwarts/atomic heart/zelda, but when im done with them itll be weeks before i play anything. Even then its likely just a few rounds of tf2 or something. so little interests me anymore in the vidyasphere. its given me time to take up hobbies like drawing. one day i might make a comic or something.
He could have fed that PC to a starving African child
Why would I make myself miserable on purpose?
Yeah, unsuccessfully. I've been able to curb it just enough to get a degree but it's still holding me back in life.
