Gaming as Work Project
1y ago
From the article
Sometimes it feels like my gaming hobby is more of a "work project". I often play a few games at once for the variety, and if I get behind in one I feel a nagging voice reminding me "I need to get back to X and finish that" or "I need to play Y tonight and finish that level/boss/whatever"
I'm not always playing what I'm enjoying most, but more of what I feel I need to complete. There's some sunken cost fallacy involved. When I'm playing something I enjoy, I actually try to limit my time with it because I don't want to finish it too soon.
We won't even delve into my issues with my backlog and the OCD order I've assigned the "next to play games"
