Icefrost Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Video games are something that's capable of keeping down for hours in a day if you give into it fully without holding back. It's probably why a lot of people get addicted to them without knowing how it happened. It's why I always set a timer for my myself whenever I'm playing any games. The purpose of doing that is to have something pull me back into reality when I must have lost myself in the game. How long do you usually play in a day? Is it always fixed or you stop whenever you feel like it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 on most days I tend to game like two to three hours on weekeday depending if I have nothing else going or free. Weekends mostly more. Twitch streaming people. Stream and do MSFS2020 - I do MSFS202090$ of the time anyway 🙂 Icefrost 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 My daily schedule decides how long I would be able to play each day. There is no specific duration because my day's schedule aren't fixed. But I can play at least 1 hour and 30 minutes without having to worry about my schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boblee Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I can play 6 hours in a day but that's going to in 2 hours different intervals till the day is over. There's no way I would put myself through the stress of playing for 6 hours straight. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I have one hour on average for both console and mobile gaming, I'm just too occupied at this point to devote my time playing videogames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like yesterday, I was able to play at least for 7 hours starting around 7:25 AM throughout the day till I stopped playing around 9:00 PM. I played at intervals for the 7 hours in order not to strain myself too much all because I had the time to play more. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I was steady online yesterday, that made me not to hold my PS4 controller for the first time since I got it. Today, their is power outage, and if it continues, then I'll skip video games for 72 hours, that will affect my average daily time devotion playing games xD.

Seriously, playing for 6 straight hours would be insane for me to even think about it because it's going to wear me out. Even my back is going to feel sore for a while before it stops. You're doing well by playing at intervals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried playing for a longer period of time and I had a terrible headache the next day, so I knew very well that it's not something my body would take lightly.

They say that experience is the best teacher and I do believe that as well. When you learn the lessons the hard way, you will never forget it quickly.

Family sedan Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 I used to be addicted to gaming. Back in the 2000's I was so addicted to GT games that I honestly don't know how I kept my friends or kept track of NASCAR or my favorite team the Boston Celtics, but somehow I did. I guess I have more mental strength than I think I do. I'm really not that addicted anymore. Today I played two NBA Live '03 games with two minute quarters and decided that was enough.

It's why no matter what I do, once I get to feel sleepy, that thing gets suspended immediately unless I'm at the office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
