variants_of_concern, (edited )

for me I turned to game hosting as a hobby, I really liked Minecraft when I first learned about it and later on I wanted to relive that time when I used to soak hours into my worlds, but now I was an adult so I could just never stick to playing for so long, I setup a realm to be able to have people join my world and they can build alongside me in the world and whenever I could log on Id see their progress. well that continued until I had my own server at home and I started to learn how to host and networking and honestly I dont really play many games except from time to time when something just draws me in but my daily hobby is checking, updating, and recruiting for my servers or media stuff. thinking of hosting my own lemmy instance for example.

I think what Im trying to say really is that you can look for other hobbies to fill your time, then when you get back to games you might find one that feels great and you can lose yourself again, for me that was the latest pokemon game violet, I bought it because I heard about the raids thing and thought that would be fun, and was kind of blown away with how much it has changed from when I was playing on game boy or 3ds so it led me to try and complete my pokedex. similarly I used to be into call of duty a lot back in highschool but really stopped enjoying them after cod4 and just didnt pay attention to cods anymore but my buddy mentioned to me one day about modern warfare and how infinityward was making it a come back so I bought it and got hooked, soaked in some hours to actually get good at aiming since moving from a console to pc and had a blast, but now im burnt out of shooters again so the newer cods came out and Im completely uninterested
