Outgrowing Video Games

Spending 700+ hours on a game makes me even more sadder, but that could be just me.

WOW, me too... I guess it's been a long time since I regularly played games

Same, but every game I buy - I tend to drop after 1-2 days and can't get into anything :(

It’s fun but reminds me I no longer have the patience for video games.

I wish I could spend more then 10 minutes playing games; feels like work.

Cool game but I can't play it any more. So much wasted time doing nothing. It's worse than a second job.

For me it's more like playing it for a few hours, then thinking why I am waisting my time improving a virtual base instead of improving my life or my skills

This echos my thoughts precisely. I clocked up a lot of hours 2004 to 2009, and more casual for a couple of years after. I feel you have to really commit to this game to get the real fun out of it. And sadly i don't have entire nights free to dedicate to games any more...so I'm done with it. I still miss it, even now...but i know that ship has sailed.

I pity the user who ends up getting sucked into playing this game ...(5 hours later) that user is me.

I don't understand this world where you're playing a game for 3-4 hours, every day, for a month, and come out of it feeling like that wasn't enough.
