I don't watch a lot of tv and typically play between 10pm and 1am when my girl is upstairs sleep

Thinking about it I probably spend WAY more time browsing social media and the coli since that can be distributed through out the day in smaller increments

Work from home helps A LOT.

I bought a shytload of games from ages 22 to 29, but never had time because of going into the office every day and the commute.

Stayed at the same company but switched teams back around 2015/2016. The job (initially) was setup where you basically knew how much work was needed for an entire month. I would get all my shyt done in the first week but slowly release it throughout the month. I finally got on Skyrim and put like 250 hrs in before turning to Witcher 3.

Boss was very much a micromanager, so she started giving us weekly goals and asking us to chart how long it took to complete certain tasks/reviews etc. She didn't want us having idle time.

I said "fukk it" and switched companies while getting a 20% raise. When it's busy (summer and fall), I might get in 30 mins to an hour after work.

When it's slow....usually winter time....I can legit have entire days where all I do is game. The work comes in at a slow enough rate that I might have a week's worth of shyt done in 2 hrs on Monday and then answering sporadic emails after that. Helped me beat Elden Ring like 2 or 3x.

If you have time to watch sports, movies, Netflix, Hulu, prime TV, etc, then you have time to play video games. This thread is such a bullshyt excuse to hate video games like some hoe jealous bytches who hate the guy who loves to play video games.

1000% all this. Not being able to find time to do the things that you enjoy in life is not an adulting problem, but a matter of priority preference. I don't give a fukk how faux busy you are, what job you have or the amount or type of family you got either.

I've always found time to get at a bare minimum an hour or two of gaming a day, nearly any day of the week and I've had every imaginable adult circumstance that one can go through, most of the time simultaneously. Multiple kids, wife, various other live-in family members, consecutive years of dual job wielding, other hobbies, workout regimens, years of college/trade schools.

What also boggles my mind is how many of y'all act like y'all couldn't dare play a game while another family members is in the house and actually conscious. Are y'all embarrassed or something?! How co-dependent are y'alls families? I get distractions and certain situations can be challenging at times, but all should be able to be managed, if you really want it. Recreational time is important for everyone.
