You cant be srs? Pc gaming has never been bigger. Consoles dont have the selection of games PC does.
Keep rep trading out of your sig line miss

Lol every geek I know plays PC games for hours every day.

It honestly fun. Used to game CS 1.6, Command&conquer, Warcraft back in the day. Now I am not willing to invest money in a decent computer. I also suck since I havent played for like 10 years..

Tfw you spend $2k just on upgrades (new video card + monitor) but the only games you end up playing are 2d platformers that can be ran on a smartphone and only like for 90 minutes a week.

Can't tell if I just grew out of video games or games today suck ass compared to 10 years ago.

When I was in my twenties I could sit down and play games for hours on end. I would be like okay only 15 more minutes. The next time I would look at the clock it would be like 3 hours later. But now I have to force myself to play for more than 30 minutes in a row.

Once those feels are gone they are gone for good. Sucks man. I've been trying to find new hobbies to fill the void but can't find a good replacement. But maybe it is a good thing. Looking back that was a huge waste of time.

If you like MMORPGS try out Black Desert

its super competitive but you have to earn everything. Items have fixed priced and you can't trade so the top tier players are there cuz they actually put time into becoming the best.

Really fun game, super big time sink. You can find a free 7 day trial online if you look hard enough

Oh yea and the game is beautiful

I think I lucked out in that department. Never saw the appeal in mmorgs. I know that some people get hooked on those and it ends up ruining their lives. I had a hard enough time shaking civ back in the day. Talk about a time sink. Okay 20 more minutes before bed...next thing you know the sun is coming up and its 6 hours later.

I tried this game a while back because of the hype and ended up hating it. Everything is just too random. Plus the hit detection was some of the worst I've experienced. I still don't know why the game is so popular.
