As the title states, Kids are asleep by 8:00pm all the chores are done everything for the next day is prepped by 8:30pm. The wife is happily watching her favorite show.

All installed games are updated drivers updated nothing left to do except enjoy the few hours of gameplay I get in a week.

I sit down and…. can’t decide on a game to play. Instead flip through steam sales for more games I will never play.

I think the problem is as infrequent as my play sessions are that playing a large scale RPG requires relearning basic mechanics and what my tasks were last time I played. Therefore I end up playing ole reliable BF2042 which at this point is a bit repetitive.

Anyone else experience this sensation? If so how do you get over it and get into a game with minimal time? It’s still important to me and truly is fun when I’m really into a game but I find it harder and harder to get into a game even though there are plenty of absolute bangers released seemingly weekly.

    I’m a dad and I’m in the same boat. Have you tried Battlebit Remastered? It’s (imo) an improvement on the core shooter game and gunplay mechanics in 2042 albeit with much lower textures. Otherwise some good pick up and put down options are Dredge, Dave The Diver, Sea of Stars, even good old Old School RuneScape :D
