Anon is not satisfied

How does OP get money?
Or is OP Asmongold himself?
Asmondgold post on 4chan to express his true feelings about his life
Dude needs to stop playing predatory gacha games.
I don't understand people who WILLINGLY install that shit. They KNOW how they work and are monetized. And unlike gambling at a casino, there's zero chance of you being up money at any point.
I think of them as "Gotcha!" games, cause their point is to trick you.
I think that's where the term gacha comes from. A japanization of the term gotcha.
No, "gacha" comes from "gashapon," the crank vending machines, and the name is an onomatopoeia. "Gacha" (or "gasha") is the sound of the crank being turned, and "pon" is the sound of the capsule dropping out.

You could get a job, work less, and get paid for it...

All work and no pay...
I think more masturbation would fix this.
Yeah, only once per day? No wonder he's unhappy.
And ditch the gatcha games, and play DOOM 2 mods or lauch a number of Minecraft modpacks through PolyMC

I actually do know people who do this. Its pretty crazy to me. Like I game a decent amount, then feel bad that I wasted that time. So I do a bunch of projects and get out of the house to feel better. I guess these people don't have that need, which must be kind of nice!
Also card carrying ADHD but I believe in this quote (whoever originally said it).
Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time
There's still a distinction between enjoying it in the particular moment versus enjoying the entire sum of all the moments, looking back.
In food testing there are different preferences for how much someone enjoys a single bite of something versus enjoying an entire serving of that same thing. So even if someone prefers a sip of Pepsi over Coca Cola, they may nevertheless prefer an entire can of Coke over Pepsi. Same with all sorts of other consumer preferences.
With online activity, there's a lot of stuff out there that is the equivalent of digital junk food, where you may enjoy a specific moment but feel shitty about spending an entire day on those individual moments. The payoff that can come from some of the long term patience can sometimes be more satisfying than an endless stream of instant gratification.

Let me introduce you to ADHD
He's a good friend or mine
Tap for spoiler
According to him...
Time enjoyed is not time wasted. It's a different matter if you play games but don't actually feel like you're enjoying it, though.
Maybe anon should get some better games

Games that require daily participation to make any sort of progress are a non-starter for me. I have other shit that's far more interesting than fake anime tiddies.
I know I can easily get hooked on those so I just avoid them. Games should work around my life, not the other way around. That's why I'm heavily into single player games now. I can hit pause whenever I like.
It is simultaneously an obnoxious speed bump that slows down my ability to binge when I've got free time and a needy attention drain when I'm absorbed in something else.
Truly the worst of both worlds.
I've been playing Total Annihilation the last couple days. The 1997 game that you can still get on GOG for $5. I had it as a kid and played all the time.
My son has been wanting to play it with me, so I gave him a quick rundown on "skirmish" mode earlier tonight. He caught on pretty quick. It can get brutal though. Hopefully I can get the network muliplayer working so we can play together.
Worth every penny.
Ah, probably my favorite RTS.
I would say the biggest problem TA had was simply lag. Once you really get going with the volume of units - especially over a network - the loads on the system can get heavy. Basically, you get carried away having too much fun building some absurd army.
There's a new iteration of the franchise - Planetary Annihilation - that I've been meaning to check out as soon as I have some free time. Good reviews on Steam. Stick it on your list and wait for a sale, if the $30 price point bothers you. But I think it'll probably look a little nicer and run a little smoother.

I haven't really run into that recently... Though I imagine pretty much any x86 system made in the last 20 years or so should handle it fine. I remember getting to that point on my old PIII-powered Optiplex GX1, that was a fun time. Trying to build nukes, an army of assault kbots/vehicles, bombers, and construction bots, and trying to guide what remains of your previous armada to where you think the enemy is because they took out your long range radar units...
I do have the CDs in storage somewhere, too, I should dig those out and see if they play nice.
Someone should shop in the new horse girl gacha game into this greentext.
Game better, nerd
What kind of time warp are you in? Just doing WoW dailies took all day and made me realize I was wasting my life.

This was annoying to write on my phone.
The Expired MREs are what make me curious!
You can get loose MRE elements from surplus places for cheap.
