My Modern gaming hobby vs my writing obsession

I’ve been a gamer for most of my life. I’ve had off and on times I wanted to quit simple because of a host of reasons. Mainly being modern gaming has got a lot of shit that comes with it.

It’s the costs, advantages and disadvantages. Modern gaming in general costs rise above at times more then I’m willing to pay. I got more cash stacked then I ever had in my life but it’s just not fun to me with the over inflation of supposed value in gaming in general.

I don’t have a passion for it like most dudes. I only got nostalgic memories and minor willness to only go so far for a hand full of games.  One game in particular I bought a whole gaming system for.

This game made the switch worth buying all the extra games before tears of the Kingdom dropped. Well…and Tetris. I love the fuck out of that game. Even so now a days I can’t take a lot of my time to put into the shit. It’s a hobby. Writing however is a different beast of desire. It’s pure spare time entertainment for me.

I’ve made some cash from writing here and there. Off and on but the value of writing and reading to me is really a obsession. I can’t think of it as hobby. I’ve put more energy, time and sweat into the shit and I always get returns.

I always feel a sense of accomplishment and growth. The science and art of writing and craft is something I’ve taken the time to invest in and appreciate.

Above all else. This shit is work.

I wouldn’t do this shit if I didn’t have an obsession for it and need to succeed and be great at the craft. The only over people can understand that level of obsession and need to understand and study the process and game of it are GM chess players.

I find GM and IM chess players and how they think and process and make decisions to be the most interesting. Though I can’t play the game I admire the thinking because for me I like’n it to the process of telling and crafting a story and logical flow of a story and I have the same obsession for my game.

The game of crafting the story.

Yeah. I can do without gaming in general because I still have memories with my best friends and gaming but my writing obsession invades my thoughts consently. I live for bursts of growth were the worlds I create are due to the work I put in years in the process of crawling my to the top.

Warm Regards
