  • It’s quite easy, actually. I usually play everything years after release, however, if I’m really into a certain series, I’ll buy it right away. If I don’t care for the wait, I probably don’t care enough about whether or not a sequel is being made.

    Of course that only works if you don’t get hyped easily. I play a lot of games, but usually only 1-2 per year are released within said year.



  • While I do agree with the problems identified, I can’t help but think they also made forums a lot better. Due to the lower discoverability and higher effort to actually join communities felt more personal. You interacted with smaller groups and came to know specific people. I still have friends from back then.

    On larger platforms, I never had that. Even lemmy, which is small in comparison has enough people that I barely even think about specific users. Let alone speak with them on a personal level.




  • Now, I can’t give you actual advice, if this is something that’s constantly bothering you, you might want to speak to a therapist. What I can offer is my perspective - however, you might want to know beforehand that I’m not chronically ill. I had medical issues which weighed on me quite a bit, but those turned out to be resolvable after about 2 years.

    I don’t think live has any grand purpose and you’ll never be content if you try to chase one either. There is no point in waiting for something that may never come. The best thing you can do is to find things you enjoy and maximize whatever you can get out of live. Try lots of different things within your means, visit places and meet new people. The worst thing you can do, from personal experience, is to repeat the same things every day. Your days blur together and there is no meaning to be found in them.
