Nolan Ross

i think im gonna play dead island
you should play witcher
ready, set, go
John Phillips
I really, really wanna play withcer. I know it;s awesome. But... I feel fucking empty, that I am unable to start. I do not know how to describe this properly.
>i feel empty smoke weed before playing, you'll prob feel more empty later but it should be what you need to get started and lose yourself in play.
Jonathan Torres
fuck yeah citizen, spread the word
Andrew Scott
i'm in the exact same boat and the only thing i've found that works is drugs and/or alcohol.
weed works best but depending on the mood some alcohol can do the trick too
but either way it sucks
Joshua Sanders
apathy. I havent been able to be involvedin a game for years now. For the last 3 years I've just been playing surf maps and fucking chess
Joshua Flores
i only have a laptop and xbox360
looks neat tho
playing dead island now
Cooper Powell
You are about to grow out of vidya user Get a new hobby Or you are just depressed
Jason Lee
Replay Skyrim the right way, this time.
Cooper Bell
GTFO of here.
PC Master race or nothing.
I hope you die of depression. You fucking console peasant, go play Maple Story on your potato PC.
Sebastian Morgan
You just need to play with somebody. I'm ready for teaming up in pubg
Aiden Young
Just fucking start and stop bitching faggot, you coukd be banging triss by now
Jeremiah Allen
same, Have witcher 3 only played it for 2 hours. Have pubg. but playing alone is boring. I have 140 game's witch a lot i never played. I waste my time watching porn,twitch,movies. Browsing 4chin and youtube.
Josiah Gonzalez
When does this game come out? Ive been waiting a long time. But never heard of a release date.
Owen Young
You can play the pre-alpha right now.
$160 million in crowd funding and content is being added as you play.
Gabriel Clark
Shit, when I have days off I'm going out on dates and bringing new girls home. Its not even winter yet and youre already hiding in your room
Brayden Rivera
you're a lying piece of shit, trying to make someone feel worse then you do. Your life sucks even more. faggot.
Jack Scott
You wish bro, get on my level. Already have a date with a blond later tonight
Liam Moore
Whats your secret user?
Daniel Nelson
I know that feel. It just feels so HARD to actually start something, eventhough I KNOW it would be fun if i just fucking did. It's worse with SP Games than it is with MP ones.
It's very rare now that I get as excited and hyped to play a game, like I used to. Everything feels just "ok" or "meh" to play, at best.
I often spent hours looking for new stuff to play on Steam, with nothing looking especially tempting.
The only way to get some of the motivation and fun back that I know, is to take drugs while playing. Also, playing something together with friends is usually a lot more fun too.
Jeremiah Sanchez
Decently attractive and funny. Not rich at all, don't even have car.
Blake Ramirez
Sounds like u need a waifu op
Im only interested in games playing it stoned af not a great solution
Hudson Richardson

Oliver Rogers
do you have a job?
Camden Hughes
Go for a walk at a park, that helps me when I feel that way.
Matthew Lewis
OP this same fuckin thing happens to me. Could be growing out of it or it could be anhedonia (lack of pleasure in usual activities) caused by anxiety/depression. Are those things you typically struggle with? If so that's a whole different conversation. But as other people have said try having a toke beforehand or really anything that turns playing the game into a ritual of sorts as rituals can be very comforting. Also, find some buddies to play with. If you don't have buds in real life who play the same game go online on some forums and look for dudes who are in the same situation as you and team up. When you have someone else to play with the motivation goes way up I've found.
Chase Howard
I had a lot of fun with Undertale. I gave it a try and it was pretty good.
Matthew Williams
Nope, just studying. I live in a pretty progressive city, majority of girls pay their own drinks and still come home with me. Thats how it should be everywhere honestly but you never hear feminists pushing that concept of female indepence/empowerment
Mason Anderson
I have a theory that gaming is kinda like a drug. After some years (or whatever) the effect wears off. You just have seen it all. Your standards of what a good game is for you change.
I find myself yearning for new, exciting games, that just don't seem to exist.
Nolan Myers
Thanks for pointing that out, he is indeed a fucking asshole
Jose Carter
That sums up my situation quite neatly
Adam Brown
it is a drug. it distracts you from doing things you should probably be focusing on more. if the fun wears off, it's time to move on. your subconscious is telling you to stop
Carson Butler
what is the right way
Mason Harris
same kinda thing happened to me yesterday, I planned on finishing a couple of cartoons but ended up just doodling a little and dicking around on youtube. Now I got work in an hour.
Adrian Diaz
I'm rooting for you OP. everybody has days like that every now and then, but if you feel like this for weeks at a time, you may need to change the way you live, or maybe even take medication for it. how often do you work out, or at least get outside?
Brandon Flores
Thats not true at all. Its not a distraction. And in the contest of when it is. Everything is a distraction. Also when you don't think something is fun anymore. when the pleasure is gone. Its not your subconscious telling you to stop. Your subconscious is telling you nothing. Its just that the emotion of fun is gone.
Gabriel Martin
very possible. at the same time, it's all that i have and know though. i would have likely offed myself already if i couldn't escape reality anymore.
Kayden Adams
With about 80 mods so that Skyrim is a frozen wasteland full of slavers. Cities slowly fall under the slavers' sway, and the Imperials fight the Stormcloaks for market control. Daedra have inspired cannibal cults that rape you into producing delicious children. Animals chase your poor little vixen, trying to knock down and impregnate her. When you walk past a market stall and knock over a shopkeeper's things, he bends you over his knee and spank you before sodomizing you until you can barely walk in the chastity belt he slaps onto you.
It's more fun that way.
Tyler Cook
I took monday afternoon off, and the rest of the week as well. Sucks, cause I just burned up 36 hours of PTO I was wanting to use for something else.
Got sick. Walking pneumonia.
Lucas Johnson
hmm thanks to you i'm gonna go for a 15 min walk. I try to do that everyday. but last few months i did not go outside mutch. (not even for a walk)
Ian Williams
starting every new scentence on a new line is the most tumblr-esqu thing you could do user. you should like an edge-lord. not the guy your responding to btw
Hudson Roberts
always spend a few minutes outside a day. i find that if i'm getting really depressed, a walk at 3 am, and then another walk in the morning when everyone is up and about does wonders. it might not be the same for you, but thats what works for me.
Logan Hill

Joshua Reed
* you're.
Leo Edwards
It's called depression, user. Go see a doctor and have him prescribe some happy pills.
OP, same here. I have bought all those awesome games, like GTA5, witcher 3, Xenoverse 2, mortal kombat x etc etc, and in no way i can enjoy them. Maybe I think we should move on?
Parker Edwards
I'm kind of in the same place myself but I know that the reason I can't get deep into a game is that I only get like 1 hour of gaming in at night since having a child
Jack Phillips
>correcting grammar on Sup Forums are you legitimately autistic?
Noah Reed
your brain is telling you that you should be doing other shit besides video games, like procreating. For a lot of people there comes a time when gaming just gets old. Especially if you had a period of non-stop gaming. You got burned out but its probably for the best.
Angel Rivera
OP should get a gf
Ryan Rivera
Games become way too boring when past certain age. For example I used to play MMOs like crazy when I was a teen, didn't even care what I was playing, as long as I was playing. I guess I was more connected with the games, more focused. I have found that weed can bring that "connection" back, so the game feels more intriguing, but it's a temporary thing
James Harris
not more than the guy complainimg about someones way of writing, while not knowing the correct use of your & you're. lol
Charles Reyes

Thomas Miller
i noticed that taking a break from gaming can actually make you enjoy and appreciate it again too, once you start again
Zachary Sanchez
Heres a thought. Act your fucking age and quit playing with toys. Go outside, the place with the big yellow circle you have heard about and go get this thing called "a life." Its kinda like a video game but better when you score a slampig to bob for your nadapples. They have tendies there and real vaginas and museums and bars and record stores.
Justin Sanchez
sounds boring as fuck m8
Eli Turner
Jeah, your way of 'getting a life' sucks gay hairy monkey balls.
Justin Wood
Damn dude you're collecting them like pokemon. I unmatch after 7 days no response.
What type of photos are you using?
Lincoln Lee
Goofy pictures, got one with a grumpy cat plushie on my head, then a nice full body one, a picture with me making a funny pic next to Chewbacca, and a pic at the wax museum face palming next to Justin beiber
Bentley Ward
yeah, collect STD's while fucking degenerate bitches - kinda like pokemon, just with more AIDS!
Isaac Bailey
nigga, they are just matching to make fun of you
Brayden Morgan
Still me, I don't bother unmatching, just don't see a point. I also had a hot girl message me from a year before once. She was about to leave the country and head back to France the same week, so she wanted a fun relaxed night and messaged me. So in my opinion just leave them, cause you never know
Gavin Cruz
Thats the main criticism I always hear. Have standards, always wear protection, never had an std. Good luck to you too
Luis Thompson
I guess part of the joke is going on a date and then sucking my dick
Benjamin Myers
Sounds like you're cured and now wish to be re-infected.
Jayden Rodriguez
Same thing happens to me when I'm depressed.
Matthew Lee
exactly, your micropenis is the joke
Julian Lee
Haha only complaint I get about my dick is that its too big. But keep being a hater, that's fine with me
Jacob Morris
Man those are some ugly bitches. But can't be choosy.
John Scott
can you fucking stop? the game is massively overdue and there are rumors of money being laundered and stolen.
Vaporware m8
Nathaniel Perez
this. my daughter is almost 2 and i love her but ive become really depressed about money/life/etc since i found out my gf was pregnant. Found 4 chan right at the end of 2015. this place has fueled my depression and i don't get enough sun because i work fucking nights. so now on my free time i literally just drink and browse. might smoke weed a couple times a week but drink a case of beer a day. feeling like shit but nothing interests me anymore irl. only live music but i never get to do that anymore because of responsibilities... i need a good lsd/mdma session at a show. sorry Sup Forumsros im rambling
Robert Garcia
Hey OP, haven't read the rest of thread, but I used to have this exact problem. The issue for me was that it seemed like I lost the patience to appreciate the details of the game that I loved as a kid. I would recommend trying to play a game all the way through, and see if you develop an enjoyment for it. I find that as I get older, I see myself overlooking happiness where I found it before.
Aiden Reyes
I mostly don't reply to those, and I've been using bumble a lot recently. Its like tinder but the girls have to message first, its nice
Grayson Cook
>doesn’t even have a car
Why even try? Get your priorities straight. This before that, etc etc etc
This is almost the exact same thing as being fat and trying to pick up sluts. Weight loss first, then the pussy chase.
Jonathan Lopez
What's your point though? That I should stop sleeping with girls until I get a car? I live in a huge city with a metro system that goes to all the nice bars, its never been a hindered my tinder
