I find that I will still buy most of the major releases when they come out and play them to completion but if I play any of that stuff later on, without all the hype and conversation I have a much harder time keeping interest. At the moment a lot of the games I will play will be ones like Spelunky or Rogue Legacy, games that I can play while also watching Netflix or something on the other screen. So while I do still play games a quite a lot, its very different games than I used to play where I could get immersed in the stories for hours at a time. |

I go through gaming spurts. I play left 4 dead 2 frequently with friends so I guess I am always gaming but in terms of new games I could go a whole month without playing anything new and then pick up 3 games and play them all through. Technically I'm 'playing' walking dead and wolf among us right now but still waiting for the next episodes to come out!

Used to play 60+ hour long RPGs and adventure games. Now it's mainly indie games with things like CS:GO with friend in between.

Kind of both. But even at uni when I had shit loads of time, there were few games that I was interested in sinking lots of time into.
I did recently spend over 100 hours in Skyrim, but I never really felt into it like I used to with the likes of Final Fantasy, Zelda and Shenmue.
I just don't think games mean as much to me now as they used to. Either that or modern games genuinely aren't as good/don't appeal to me.

Don't seem to fit in enough and play shorter games as a result. I started Batman Arkham Origins and just not had the time to go back to it. Definitely seem to be using laptop more for gaming with netflix on.

No where near as much as I used to or would like.
I just always seem to have other things to do now, house work, getting food together for work, gym to try and get/keep fit etc.
I feel like a need a FULL gaming day just to get my fix! lol.
