How often do you take breaks from video games?
I did take a half year break from gaming and computers completely. For 5 months now I've been using only i3 xubuntu thinkpad so I can't play anyway even if I wanted to.
Occasionally I run some FTL and hang on /v/ and other boards.
It didn't increase my productivity of any sort. I turned out I wasn't addicted. Now I read more books & manga, but beside that I just wander around aimlessly.
