I feel this way pretty often, but then I open Factorio again and the night turns to day quickly.

Also the fact that you feel like you should be more responsible and doing something else. That’s what eats away at me in the adulthood/fatherhood

When I get into something I'm doing in SWTOR, I can play for a LOOONG time.

Perhaps you select the wrong games. I kinda stopped gaming for some years. More than an hour was exhausting and most of the games are really boring. Then i rememberd how i loved transport Tycoon and got ottd again. Tanked LOTS of hours into that game. Half a year later i stumbled over factorio again. I bought it in beta and disliked it. Lots or ottd players followup with factorio, so i gave it another try and DAMN iam hooked. Played 60h in the last few weeks, mostly 1-2h hours per day. Its crazy.

If retirement homes don't have videogames when I'm old, I'll lobby for voluntary euthanasia. Aging is a straight negative. Arguments about it making life meaningful are copium. I can have a meaningful life of gratitude without my body falling apart.
