Serious Question: How Do You Game? Is Your Gaming Time Truly Healthy?

So, I was/am kind of addicted to gaming. I tried not playing any games for 2 months( was hard at first), and now, whenever I try to play even on my phone( indie games)—I feel pain in my head. It’s like my body is rejecting gaming.

I actually feel happy that my mind no longer enjoys gaming because, for years, I used it as a way to cope with depression (at least, that’s what I think it was, now). Gaming made me antisocial, but now I’m getting back to my normal self..., and I feel so much happier. Meeting real people and going on real-world adventures feels so much better than gaming.

That said, I still get cravings for gaming here and there, why is that?, but they no longer control me like they used to.

So, my question is—do you feel that gaming makes you less productive and lazy? Do you ever feel like gaming is killing your potential?
How do you game? Does your gaming time feel healthy to you, or are you just making excuses to believe it is?

I’d love to hear what your experience says , whether you’re a current gamer or a former one!!!
 
I used to game a lot on PC, and my favorite genres were strategy games and shooting games when I was in college, which continued to some extent after. With time, my gaming hours have decreased not because I wanted to, but because I had to. It was difficult at first since gaming was one thing I truly enjoy. But after a few years, the main difference I notice is that I no longer have the patience to understand all the game mechanics needed for strategy games. I now rarely play some games on PS5 that I've already played before. Still, I desire to build a gaming PC and play a few hours a week, as I don't enjoy shooting games on console.

Since I bought a PC in 2000 I used to play mostly all demos given with Digit magazine at my native town, Nellore. Then when I moved to Ameerpet, Hyderabad in 2003 for my law degree I used to go to Haridas Market, Koti and buy Game CDs like mostly Strategy, FPS & Puzzle based. Until 2011 I used to buy from Haridas Market then I moved to outskirts of the city to Singapore Township near Infosys Campus then I only downloaded games from torrents. My main games are Call of Duty, AoE, Tomb Raider, Elder Scroll, Fallout. After moving again into city to ECIL in 2013 until 2016 I played all above games but downloaded them via torrents. I created my Steam account in 2013 but did not even buy 1 game until 2016. The 1st games were Witcher 3 & Just Cause 2. After 2016 I only started playing mostly RPGs, FPS & Strategy.
From 2000 to 2006, my game hours daily were evening 6 to 10. From 2006 to 2011 I used to game on weekends because I have court to attend. After 2011 to 2014 I had all day with me and I used to play from 10 to 2 then 6 to 8. After 2014 I went to coal mines in UP until 2017. It was in 2016 in one of the coal mines camps I saw my colleague playing Just Cause 2 on his laptop using Steam and from then on I bought almost 800 games until now. From 2017 to 2019 I was in Hyderabad but was going through a rough patch of divorce so could not concentrate on gaming much. From 2020 to 2023 I played all the above games but after 2023 my interest on gaming decreased. Since 6 months again I started playing games like Wolfenstein series, Witcher series, AoE series, Cyberpunk 2077, Stalker series, Indiana Jones series including the latest ones using Xbox Game Pass. Nowadays due to experiencing frequent crashes and freezes while playing games is leading to frustration sometimes.
I married in 2009 and my wife then did not object to me on playing games but recently since 2020 onwards she always scolds and pesters me not to play games because they will cause illusions and anger in people playing them she says. I play after she goes to office and shuts down my PC before she comes from office. I mean I don't open any games but only browses forums when she is at home. During weekends it's very difficult for me to play games as she is always around. My wife also does not like my kid playing games so I installed some small games in her laptop and hid them in inner folders. I don't like playing on my mobile though I used play on it during 2017 to 2019 period during my divorce like Temple Run, Subway Surfers & Ludo King but now I removed them from my phone. For 1 year like from 23 to 24 I did not even touch my PC and even did not visit the forums. Now I am again active on Reddit, Digit & TE forums.

Mate, I cleared a couple of hard accounting/finance degrees and got a promotion now again after I quit gaming. I removed all access and sold my consoles, disks and locked myself out of all accounts a few years back. COLD TURKEY. If you feel it is holding your potential back, it probably is.

I used to be very active in IVG forum/reddit and watch all those long form gaming videos but I locked myself out by setting a password I cant recollect on the forum and the email. If I start playing it is an obsession. I cant focus on anything else until I complete the game, this resulted in sleep deprivation, poor diet, low self esteem, poor focus etc. I was also obsessed with 100%ing the games I played.

I again got back for 4 months after marriage in early 2024 (thanks to my brother and a feeling that I had achieved enough in my life) but I did notice the decline in my work output and that I had put on a few kilos and was spending less quality time with my wife. The moment I quit, I was able to focus on my work and got a promotion, went out with family more often and am fit again. This definitely was my last hurray with gaming.

But one thing that worked for me is that I don't play mobile games, since I never enjoyed them.

This video below hit hard but fortunately I had the sense to recuperate at a critical point in my life. This only applies if you are struggling with self control. Though, I believe gaming as a medium is more specifically designed to keep you hyper engaged more so than movies, books and series.

If you can manage your time by including a bit of gaming here and there, it isn't a bad thing at all but you should never engage in anything that will cause regret when you look back on your life.

Cheers and good luck.

wow! It’s really nice of you to share your experience. a lot of people will relate to your story. we all know how gaming is seen in Indian households (something meant for children, not grown-ups).

I’m facing a similar kind of distress when it comes to gaming. I hardly even open my gaming laptop nowdays. I’m not into typical mobile games on Android, but I do enjoy playing indie PC ports on android. They run surprisingly well and feel extra cozy, especially when playing under a blanket.

These days, if I crave gaming too much, I just watch gameplay shorts on YouTube or browse Reddit subs. Though, I don’t have a Reddit account anymore, I deleted my 3 year old account a few months ago. I was getting too obsessed with the toxicity there, picking fights with people under posts (I know, so stupid of me).

Now, I’m thinking of switching to a MacBook. Since gaming on a Mac is difficult, and most good games aren’t available for it, I feel it might help me cut down on gaming naturally... ,
 
I used to have many Gaming buddies since my 10+ 2 onwards. Many of them were 7 years younger who were my cousins classmates who used to come to me even as far as 2018 to get games from me. But 1 classmate of mine is still playing Dota and CS Go while his younger brother always plays FIFA. One is my classmate while his brother is my cousins classmate. They are now running BGR Mining & Infra Pvt Ltd from Hyderabad. I also worked in their mining company for 4 years in UP and MP. Above guy was saying that since he stopped playing games he got successful but these 2 brothers used to take their custom cooled cabinets ordered from Singapore weighing each 50 -60 kgs then big 3 monitor setups in their main guesthouse in Singrauli. Now they still playing games in custom sager laptops. They are both worth at 25 k crores but still they play games.
Now tell me how can they help build this empire of mines from Maharastra to Assam with their father still play games where ever they get a chance to play.
Stopping playing games and getting successful is one thing but continuing playing of games since attaining btech degrees and help build an empire is outstanding. Succes means not stopping playing games. Okay.

you could say my situation is similar to yours, but maybe you have much better self-control. as I mentioned, it’s been two months since I last played a game, and now I can actually see my future. Before, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life.

I didn’t care about the people around me who cared about me. I preferred locking myself in my room and gaming rather than meeting people.in result, my friendships and relationships got sore. because of gaming I dealt with sleep deprivation, low self-esteem, and a lack of focus at anything (that how it feels now)

In the past few weeks, I’ve realized how much I was missing out on, so I’ve decided to get rid of my gaming laptop and accessories soon. I plan to buy a MacBook instead, as I need a laptop for my studies and work. I’ve heard it’s great for productivity and quite restrictive for gaming, which should help me stay on track. I feel it might help me cut down on gaming naturally

I’m not into typical mobile games on Android, I used to enjoy playing indie PC ports on android, but now I can’t play games anymore, whenever I try, I just get a headache.

....and thanks for the video ..., have a great evening

I don’t think the guy above is saying that gaming itself is bad , he’s pointing out that addiction to anything, including gaming, can be harmful. and that is true. If gaming turns into an addiction, it holds you back from reaching your full potential , unless, you work in the gaming industry. I hope you understand what addiction really means.

As for your gaming buddies, it’s great that some of them have found success, but not everyone realizes that gaming doesn’t just cost money, it can also take away real-life experiences. I think gaming is an amazing form of entertainment, but addiction to anything is never good. we can make excuses for it(i used to too), but sooner or later when you realize the truth, and it feels really bad.

nice, I have one game suggestion if you like fps game , when you build a PC, play The Finals. It’s the only FPS game I’ve ever liked, and it’s so good, i mean really good.

Yes if addicted means you are gone. But will power should be there. I mean maybe it comes with age also I think. I was more addicted in my 20s than in my 30s or 40s because we become exhausted by family needs as time goes on and as family burdens come on. So we will gradually try to do gaming in weekdays. When we are in our 20s we should not stick to PC gaming addiction but focus on our careers. It's all in balancing gaming with life and career.

I used to play offline games like IGI, Tomb raider, Unreal Tournament, Far cry, Doom, Wolfenstein etc. in my school & college days. Then after installing steam for the first time in 2015 i installed cs go which changed my life drastically. I think i wasted my 7-8 years playing cs. I was kinda addicted to it. I literally used to play 10-12 hrs per day. I bought many games in steam but played them rarely. It was too late to realize what i lost in those years. I made some good friends through cs across India. My honest opinion is that one should not play any game more than 2 hours a day and not necessarily regularly. If you feel lonely or you are in a tensed situation gaming can divert your mind so at that time it is benificial. Now a days outdoor gaming is like a dream. We used to play a lot in our school days but then time passed and eventually it lost its value. Missed those days very badly.

so, how’s your gaming going nowadays?yes, you’re right, outdoor gaming feels like a dream nowadays. you could say I got into gaming because most of my friends stopped playing outdoors. I don’t feel the same love and interest for games that I used to when I was 14-15. now, it just feels like doing chore. so i decided to put a stop to it. and yes, when you feel like you’ve wasted a lot of time gaming, it feels so bad.... ,

Yeah, this is how I feel. I haven't played any games for about two months. At the start, it was hard, but now I don't get triggered. I think I might try gaming again in the future, but not anytime soon. I still do keep tabs on gaming news, but nothing more than that.

To truly enjoy gaming in your 30's and beyond, you must have all other important aspects of your life sorted or at least in the right process of getting sorted. It's very hard and that's why people loose interest, primarily because of limited time.
yeah, even in the early 20s, you hardly get time. If you take out time for gaming, it feels like you're wasting it. It sucks sometimes. Maybe thinking of gaming as a hobby isn’t really an Indian concept.

Less about gaming and more about how scared you are of your wife. I feel you. Probably need to get a handheld for gaming or an iPhone.

As a personal example, I chose not to get married/have kids :playful:
Why man because of seeing the rising trend of adulterous relationships by women and divorces resulting as a result?
I have experienced both trust me this has become part of my life.
I was made to sit in the home because my wife going to office in the outskirts of the city by my parents and it resulted to disastrous consequences. I could not engage in lawyer profession as we shifted to 30 kms from city which was 1 km from Infosys campus.
I sacrificed my profession and life for the sake of the family yet if I need any help they would just tell me to keep quiet for the sake of my child nowadays. Before it was for the sake of my new wife's job.

Word of Advice: Don't listen to parents or wife if you get any good job offer just for the sake of wife and kid. You can enjoy your work while they can live anywhere.

In my hometown, in my own colony my Neighbors sons and daughters went to abroad for job and left their kids with their parents. After they got well settled they came after 2 years and took the kids to abroad with them.

Even after seeing this my parents always said that I should play my role as a watchman but in the end, working women always will find ways to be unfaithful to their husbands. You know for what. Money & gold and luxurious mansions and expensive cars.

Let us assume I am worth 3 crores then they would want more like 10 crores or 25 crores to begin with. Men from such rich families all are playboys as they don't reveal the truth. They would have farm houses around the city and in another cities around the state where they use these palatial bungalows for their carnal desires. In the end victims of them would keep on doing abortions not to be discovered by their poor husbands. Those rich bastards would always tell their lovers that they will marry them but it won't happen.

Since I have good repertoire with High Court in my beginning years when I went there in a sad mood, standing counsel of police were having tea in court canteen along with my colleagues. When I said about adultery they simply gave me 7 days time and gave an entire record of 5 year period episodes with 2 rich playboys. Their call records, even videos, photos and everything. All the high court colleagues came to my marriage in 2009 but felt deeply saddened by knowing this.

My parents got a well educated girl from a poor family but she got rich relatives because her father lost all the money, jewels and car, tractor , agricultural lands for gambling. My father said since they were rich once and have become poor now and since she has seen both sides of the coin she will be a good wife.

I helped her get a job in Infosys and in Central govt companies. End result is I was betrayed while my kid became motherless after divorce because even before the lady judge of family court pronounced verdict my wife declared she will give custody of my 6 years kid to me and my parents.

After an year after the divorce while I shifted to my home town she again came with her father and took my child and told her all her properties are hers and my kid should go with her. But my child put only 1 condition and that is if we both can live together she will come and stay in Hyderabad. I have to accept to it since my parents started crying seeing my kid. Again I remarried in front of my parents, my uncle and aunt and my wife's father all her brothers. You know what they started to spread in her village as for the cause for divorce before, I am mental and I shout a lot and I was taking medicines even before marriage in 2009 and that my parents hid the fact and destroyed her life. Even her own sisters husband advised her before her 2nd marriage not to marry me. Her sisters husband used our family connections for his books business for 4 straight years and never gave me a dime even though they promised me to give 25 paise share if he begins the business. His classmate is my wife's 1st lover and he has several paper making units in Hyderabad. He is a widower with 2 kids but could not marry my wife because he was compelled to marry a 18 years old girl because she became pregnant and she is his father's friends daughter while that bastard was 42 years old.This 18 years old girl filed a rape case and the judge gave a option if he marries her there won't be any charges. She isn't rich but poor. 2nd fellow is 26 years old server admin in Deloitte and he has properties in Mumbai worth 10-15 crores. My wife was 32 years old at that time. Both men didn't marry her. In the end because of her continuous abortions at the outskirts of the city in a hospital she damaged her fallopian tubes and reproductive system. 2nd fellow wanted to have children but not by IVF but through natural means.
Since 2013 I was asking her to give me another child but she refused and in 2018 I asked her again because she was asking me which IVF centre is good and I thought it's for having a baby for me.

Now she is good but when I ask for money for my PC upgrade then she would hit me so bad that I cry and shout in distress. If I shout she will tell me to take tablets. Then she will call my sisters, my parents, my aunt's and tell them to tell me to take tablets because since she got a respectable position now in TN if I shout it does not look good in her office.These are the same Solian 200mg which I started to take from 2011 onwards and my marital life became non existent. I just become a robot or a doll like we see in mental hospitals.

In Hyderabad there are 10k employees in her company and almost everybody when they meet me they look at me with mercy. But one uncle could not contain his anger even when his wife tried to stop him by telling him that Sunil does not need to know and he is sensitive don't tell him and he told me since 2017 that an young white guy was daily waiting at the company's gate and drops my wife after sundays. That is when I asked my father and he said once he and my kid while travelling on the scooter in moua ali area he also once saw a young white guy with my wife and before even him asking her, she told my father that that guy was a colleague at her company. Now she does not want to go back to Hyderabad. Here it's very nice.

The high court standing counsel for police also told that my wife used to take my little kid with her to those farmhouses and give my kid a ice cream or big box of chocolates and turn on the big screen TV and they both will go into a bedroom and does not come out even after 5 hours.

Now today morning I asked my father some money and my wife came into the middle and said that I am 46 years and should not ask for money for computers and while I was talking with my mother she hit me like a boxer on my head and then I shouted about what she did before. She is saying that I can go to my house in my native place and if I want to take the kid also, I am permitted. Now she is living a respectable life as an officer and the neighbor lady is her assistant in the office. If I shout like this she will not listen to her and she is telling everything to others in the office.

Because of this TEs brothers who gave me a suggestion for my problem in October now I am able to live without getting fear. I was taking Solian tablets since 2022 and stopped them oct,24 and since then I had no fear and anxiety. I also read in one American journal that Solian side effects are fear, anxiety. My DNA report came in December,24 and it said that I don't and will ever get Schizophrenia in my life but I have bi polar disorder. But I took those tablets for a decade or more just because of my wife.

After my 1st marriage in 2009 just after 2 years my wife father built a 2 storey house and her sister also built a new house In Gudur. Before it was a pakka house in the village and rented house for her sister.

Me or those 2 bastards all are only son of their parents with no sisters or brothers. My or their entire properties will rest with us.

My wife's father became a corepathi in 2016 when TDP came into power because FILs cousin was the MLA and he gave free hand in sand mining in nearby river. He simply earned 3 crores in 2 years. My wife took 50 lacs while she recommended to give her bava 2 crores. Remaining is with FIL.

In 2013-15, my wife's mama and cousin brother invited us to their house 2 times and both spoke like this to me, Babu since you are jobless we want to offer a job in one of our companies and I was feeling very happy. Even before I said yes, my wife told them that to help her sisters husband instead and there is no need to help me. They said to her that since her sisters husband is a govt teacher and me is jobless it's better for me but she kept on repeating to help her bava. They became angry and left the room. You know why they were insisting on getting me a job, because her own grandmother committed adultery and as a result her grandfather committed suicide and died. Maybe since they are rich they might have got information but I cannot confirm this.
Similarly on June,17th,2018 I drank pesticide mixed with Thumpsup and my parents joined me in KIMS and I was in Coma for 4 days and while I came out I was in Kamineni and my father said that all my wife's brothers uncle's came to see me in KIMS but she told the doctors that I was mentally unstable so I drank pesticide and got me shifted to Kamineni because KIMS is her company's default listed hospital. When police came from Nacharam she pleaded with my dad that if he tells police about adultery she might loose her govt job and might even be imprisoned and so when police came to our house my father told that I drank the pesticide accidentally that used to be used on house plants. But the police were insisting is this the whole truth sir or is there more than you are speaking? They were very suspicious and sat in our house for more than 2 hours.
 
A man is doomed for sure if he is bringing his partner to live in with his parents, Ideally as soon as you get married you should be living in a new home, even if it's small it's okay, just close enough to your parents house, so you can help them in need.

Never ever bring your wife to live in with your parents. This is a disaster, both parties should invest to give the couple a new home.

Western culture has figured it out centuries ago, but India is too far behind in this.

Old model Indian parents had kids just for their own benefits, biggest one is, "who will serve us in the old age?" and many more. Then they brainwash the kid into being a good mommy's boy, like the kids owes his life to his parents.

No one asked the kid before bringing him into this world.

New model parent are starting to understand this, their kid is not their slave. He/she needs privacy, a life without constant judgmental looks of old folks and their validation.
