This is just a theory based on a chat I have with a friend las week. And I want to know if someone else feel something similar.
I started playing Pathfinder RPGs at 20, now I'm 26 and playing both PF and D&D 5th ed. Before that, I used to play millions of hours per day to videogames. Last month I realized that very slowly I stopped enjoying video games.
Today if I see a trailer or something I could feel enthusiastic about the game, but after a few hours I don't want to play it anymore it feel like a waste of time. Nor do I want to find new games.
Last week I talked to a friend he told me that it is the same for him. When we think about it, we realized that we started to "not enjoying so much" videogames when we started to play RPGs. We are just two guys, and maybe there could be other factors like, for me, start traveling, learning to play music and stuffs that make me happy and not only entertain me for a few hour (RPGs are one of those things that makes me happy of course), and maybe, just maybe, videogames only kept me distracted.
Have anyone of you experience something similiar? Do you think that RPGs could be the reason, or one of the reasons, we (or you) stopped liking video games?
