Hello!

 

This might sound kinda silly and stuff, but here i go.

 

 

 

Look, the thing is, i have been searching for a certain feeling towards games or at least 1 game!

 

What kind of feeling?

 

Well, when i was kid, i looked at games differently!

I mean, yeah, again, might sound kinda dumb but, ok, let's take runescape as an example.

The feeling of excitement when the login screen finished loading and just playing that game till the day ended and just enjoyed it.

 

Now, when i find a new game that is fun (and can run on my comp, for example, KF1) i might get hooked, and if i do, it's only for 3-4 days and after, meh.

 

The game that i have or well, was recently kinda hooked in was Battlefield Heroes but that game closed so mieh...

 

But even now for example i log into runescape, searching for the same feeling i had for the game when i was a kid, but...it's just not there and no matter how much i search it, i can't seem to find it!

 

And yeah, i might be a guy who likes jogging, playing football and working out sometimes, but i know that this gaming stuff is for me man but i haven't found that right spark or somewhat!

 

I have also attended 3-4 public gaming events that have been really nice but as said, i need to find this special spark or feeling to get me more "into it" or whatnot!

 

 

 

Alright, thank you for reading my post if you did!

If you have any advice, question and so, feel free to say!

 

P.S if you still think this is reaaaaly strange or something that i am writing a post like this, well, i had no better place in mind where to ask this and perhaps someone here has experienced or is experiencing the same thing i am right now!

Don't they have Old School RS? Like you pay monthly to play the game like it was like in 2007-9? Idk my cousin played that and was addicted.

 

Idk, I've had the same experience, basically I played my first online game met a lot of cool people and still keep in contact with some of them. That was 6 years ago. Then I spent a year with your problem. I couldn't get the same feeling I got when play that particular game. Part of it was because it was my first MMO game and I never experienced that before so every other MMO felt kind of meh and boring because I couldnt compare to the massive amount of fun I had. Well after a year I found another really good addicting game and I played with 2 irl friends and we joined guilds and met people and played with people from around the world and we had a Mumble Server, it was great! I ended up quitting that game after 2 years because people made clients for the game that made it so basically everything hard to get and what made the game fun was gone. So now its been 2 years from then and now Im in your position as well. The only way to get that feeling again is to just try a lot of new things and it takes a very long time, but it's worth it in the end imo.

I've had the same experience! 

 

I find it's the same for any sort of media, whether it's books, TV shows, games. I'll go through a period of 3-7 days where I'll want to play/read/watch all the time, but suddenly my interest will drop off. Sometimes it's because things get busy and I have a lot to do, or I just lose interest all together.

 

I wouldn't blame yourself for it, I think it comes with being an adult. Rarely now do I get to play a game or do anything really without responsibilities looming over me like a rain cloud about to burst. We didn't have to worry about things when we were kids, all we had going on was school and maybe an extracurricular activity or two. I think my memory is clouded over by nostalgia too.

Never will the magic of the SNES era be recreated on a PS4. The Witcher was great, but I'm sure I enjoyed Chrono Trigger a billion times more.

 

It's all a part of getting old.
