Has anyone stopped playing video games, how has quitting changed your life? I finally uninstalled every game on my PC and emailed to have my league of legends account deleted which almost capped 10k hours
To keep it fitness related, I broke my wrist while skateboarding a few years ago in my skating days and it hurts to do bench press, will I still maintain solid chest results only doing dumbbell bench press exercises?

Have balance.

I train twice a say sometimes (Boxing), on days off work even if I train twice a day I still got loads of free time so I play dota2.

Nah im on the loading screen for an aram now tbhfam

I sometimes casually play games like fallout for a few hours on the weekend if I have time or sometimes some coop game on the ps when chilling with a friend... gaming for hours on end and trying to compete competitively is just a waste of your time.
When I was like 14-17 I played runescape, amounted to 150 days of playtime in just over 3 years time. I eternally regret wasting this time on a game instead of doing something like learning to dance, getting a motorcycle and learning how to fix it or doing a second sports or Sth... tho I did have some pretty good times playing rs as well.

I did.

Started reading instead and since I can pause my book every now and again I do some push ups or something of the sort which I couldn't do while playing vydia.

It's wasn't that hard to be honest, I kind of grew bored of games.
>>
>>39614282
Meh, you grow out of video games. As a kid/teen you could play as much as you want because you had a lot of free time. When you get older you have other priorities such as a job/career and you have more money so you could travel and actually do cool shit like sky diving and going to music festivals.

Don't sweat it.
>>
people who claim quitting video games changed their lifes are just lying m8.
just a meme.

>>39614282
You sound like a faggot who had no self control. I still play my vidya, when I get the chance. Balance is key to everything
>>
>>39614282
Hell no.
>>
>>39614282
I get bored with them quicker than I used to so I don't play for hours on end anymore, but they are fun in moderation.

I tend to binge on a game for a few days or weeks (currently Path of Exile), then get bored by it, stop playing, and instead spend more time browsing 4chan, youtube and even >reddit. While still starting up games here and there, until I get hooked on one, starting the cycle again, play it for hours daily until I finish it or get bored, etc.
>>
>>39614282
Yeah. I was playing a lot but I grew out of it. Games don't amuse me as much anymore. I still play, but 2 hours at most on a good day. Most of the times I don't play at all.
>>
Meh, Im a very competative person. I used to play alot of counterstrike and dota on high level when I was younger.

Lately I just dont know how to treat vidya anymore. I cant play casually because I want to be among the best, but I cant spend days playing vidya either because I know its a waste of time and I need to do something with my life.

Growing up sucks
>>
>>39614723
For me it's more that it takes longer to "get hooked" than before, but once I'm into it, I start binging...

I have 8 hours of sleep and 7 hours of free time every day.

Lifting, cooking, eating, hygiene, etc takes up maybe 3 hours.

I spend 4 hours on video games on on 4chan since I cbf going out and its expensive.

Stopping video games doesn't change your life, you're just a fat fuck who uses it as an escape mechanism instead of a pastime.

>>39615365
Can't play games in moderation though.
I once stopped gaming for a week, then felt like playing a bit far cry 4 for an hour or two.
I ended up skipping 2 meals and game 7 hours straight.
Had to sell my PC the next week.

Then you need mental help.
