  I’m glad you enjoyed the writeup!

  And there’s nothing bad about playing just a single game, you know. It’s all just a matter of what makes you happy, in the end.

    Both make me happy but I can’t help feeling like I’m trading in great experiences and discoveries for skill and grind on a single game. You see what I mean? The latter can only be done with dedication, and so it’s hard to leave time to the other games

      I get that completely. I used to devote most of my gaming time to Dota 2 once upon a time, so I understand. For me personally, I’m way happier having left that behind and experiencing lots of concrete and constantly new gaming experiences.

      The only important thing I would say is monitoring the way it makes you feel, and the moment it’s not giving you happiness start re-evaluating. I know I kept playing Dota well past the point it was no longer making me happy, and that I do regret.
