Life Is Too Short..

Life would probably go to pot now anyway for me.
 
I sorta wish I could jsut strike it rich and then I'd ahve all the time in the world to do the things I want to do without the complications of a job, college, responsibilities, etc.

I personally want to finish a lot of games on my backlist right now, but I'd rather be out and about experiencing life as opposed to inside all day.
 
I want to finish a lot of games too. Not to mention, taking up a sword based Martial Art. That'd be so awesome!
 
wah! I don't want to grow up! *sigh* but I guess I do need a little more responsibility. I have so many things I want to do, but I'm way too lazy to do them. A 2 year break from school really did not help me...

So, I'll get my GED, enroll in a college of some sort, and get my life together. Get a job, maybe even a boy-toy to help with my motivation. I really don't have the privelage of bettering myself for someone I love. Maybe that's all I need...someone to help me better myself.

I hear ya, as time goes on I find myself going out more or doing other things as opposed to playing games. I want to spend less and less time indoors (unless its at pub :rolleyes:) because of having so little free time compared to uni or college.
Still my interest in games will peak every now and then and I will bang out a couple of games in quick succession. Not so much as a perfectionist when it comes to games anymore

Oh yeah, I'm sure everyone feels the same. I'm assuming we're all hardcore gamers (yeah, be proud of it) here and would like to spend time replaying games and spending more time with sidequests...but alas, time is swiftly moving along and so our gaming styles have probably altered in a way.

I know I seem to be more rushed when playing FF games (or any game for that matter) because I simply don't have the time to explore every single crook and corner just to find extra valuable items.

So...I admit that my playing style has been altered for the worse. I am now more impulsive when playing, not taking the time to think. I really miss those days back in high school where I had more time on my hands. Heh, I actually thought I'd have more time when I got out of high school since I wouldn't be dealing with constant stress from teachers and shitloads of homework, but now that I have a job and a daughter to take care of, I rarely have time for games anymore.

Ah well.

yup, hardcore gamer here! i am also DEFINATELY rushed. Im currently playing FF1 on the PSP and im trying my butt off to complete it before i have to go back to work, because i'll forget what im doing and where im going.

in fact, i often get told off in work for not doing things right .. my mind is on other things.


to the person who said about not even being able to pick up FFXII again, it's the same for me. I was playing DoC and FFXII but i put them both down and started FF1 on the PSP. It's quicker to complete FF1 than FFXII & DoC...

lifes short :( lol
 
Recently, I have been feeling the same as most of you here.

Now I'm coming to the end of my first year of college, and in this last year I have had so much college work to do compared to school, I've found that my interest in games is just not like it used to be because I know I have so much other things I need to do over them. Also I have a job too and so I don't have the time either like I used to.

When I was at school, get back home and be on my PS2 from like 6pm till 3am and then get up at 7am to get ready for school. But now I rarely spend more than 2 hours at a time gaming, and sometimes I wont play for weeks.

At Christmas I bought lots of the older FF games before VII as I hadn't played them, saying I would play through them all, but so far I have only just completed one of them. I just think there are so many other things I have to do, and life is too short.

Now everything seems to be about work and money. Before I didn't have to worry about anything major, and now I have to worry about doing massive amounts of work so I can get into university, and making sure I have enough money.

Does anyone else think that so much time is wasted on work? I know it's basically essential to work in this type of world, but still.

I don't necessarily believe that too much time is wasted on work, just too much time spent. That's how the world is nowadays, but I think that everyone should have a little more free time. It's required to have a comfortable living down the line, however, so I think that concentrating on work rather than video games is appropriate.
