    You ever actually spent most of your time just playing video games? It gets old real quick.

      Having one thing be your only hobby will get boring for the majority of people, so just have some extra hobbies. I could definitely spend 75% of my time gaming and the rest on other hobbies and feel great.

      If you mix video games and diy projects it can be satisfying and fulfilling for years.

      For me the social aspect is the hardest because i don’t make friends online and am bad at keeping in regular contact with my real life friends.

      I don’t know, I was unemployed for a while and literally spent every waking hour gaming for many months straight. It was the happiest time of my life. I’d give up a lot to be so financially stable I could do that again.
