library overload
When you buy a game you are motivated by sunken cost.
when you download something that feeling isnt there.

try only downloading games that you actually want to play
and stop being a faggot

I am TELLING you to go play Soul Hackers RIGHT NOW
I am taking away your choice, so now you have your motivation back!

sorry I'm like off my meds, but this makes me think of a book I read, Otaku by hiroki azuma, about the development of anime in the 90s and the manic otaku fandom around it. one of the points of the book is that obsessive anime fans think of "anime" as a huge "database" of shows, characters, scenarios, traits ("moe"), and that by watching it obsessively they get to internally categorize it. so you have like uber autists who say "I love cat girls" and "I love glasses characters", and they watch all the cat girl and glasses character anime, and they compare which cat girls are more cat-like and which glasses characters are tsundere and ruin the glasses aspect of it, shit like that
anyways it made me think that so many anime/videogame people are like this, probably because of some level of autism, that people play and collect videogames out of this compulsive need to classify them without actually caring about playing them
Parker Parker
Your retort [in the context of OP] makes it sound like video games are worthless and anyone only ever feels compelled to play them is because they wasted money

>>I'm like off my meds

No wonder i've been feeling worthless, suicidal and lazy for months now

Paralyzed by choice. It's a real psychological phenomena.

This is why Zig Forums complains a bout having nothing to play despite having access to more games now than they ever had any time previously in their lives either free, paid, or simply available any time at the tips of their fingers.
It's why we think of Steam as being garbage despite the fact it has the most games of any distributor to have ever existed and only requires a minor amount of sifting to find good, free games ready to play.
It's why after you softmod your console and have every game available to you, you are likely to play less games than if you had bought them.
Samuel Evans
Don't download every game, download one at a time. Too many choices gives you analysis paralysis.
Zachary Mitchell
Also this.

>took them last 2 months ago
What the fuck kind of pills do you only need to pop once every 2 months? Cyanide?
Nicholas Edwards
Well, I don't need them for daily usage [in theory], since they are used primarily when I can't focus on work or just need that extra bit of motivation.
But without them I feel like shit, which is sad because I've felt like shit before I started taking them and just forgot how miserable I am when I'm not studying/working on these meds
thank you for reading my blog
Dylan White
of course I know this is what's going on, I'm not retarded, it's just sad because like said it starts to make you feel like if something can't actually grab your attention, what's the point of playing vidya at all
it looks so ugly compared to IV, but people say it's great. is that true? I was thinking of playing devil survivor since the gameplay is totally different
Henry Reyes
step 1. pick a game
step 2. force yourself to play it
step 3. realize you enjoy it enough to play on its own
Daniel Nguyen
clearly you've never bought a game and then left it in the plastic for months before selling it
still haven't touched Luigi's Mansion 3
Brandon Martin
That's rough. You need to tell your doctor (once you can get an appointment). Feeling suicidal isn't a normal response to not taking your ADHD meds
Andrew Myers
>still haven't touched Luigi's Mansion 3
That's because it's not a good or enticing game, nintendo already met their quota of exciting games for the decade.
Juan Hill
jesus christ you're a massive faggot OP. neck yourself.

Kayden Wright
LOL no is sunken time and I still feel it just fine
Aaron Cruz
Maybe I miswrote my last post but what I mean't to say is that before I started taking the medication I was already feeling suicidal and down, but the meds improved my life so much in such a subtle way that it's sad to be without that energy and drive in life.
I've was take to a psychiatrist to treat my clinical depression when I was 14 after a relative passed, I have always been a loner and prone to sadness thought, a good work ethic helps me drown out any negative emotions though
Jace Gomez
"Everything" by definition includes what he actually want to play.
Grayson Rogers
that game was the shit

It's a much older game, so take from that what you will. Most people agree it's a very good game for its time though

Maybe it says something about your mental aspect. Mere video games no longer scratch that itch for fleeting stimulation. It's probably your mind telling you that it's time to get out of the house for human and nature interaction. The placebo that is 'video games' can only stimulate for only a short while.

Anyone got the basedjak edit of this?
Christopher Jenkins
I'm OP, and I even fucking forgot that I bought a modded PS2 about a year ago for $30, burned 50+ games to DVDs
this one actually paid off, bought a beatmania controller and played the shit out of Empress. one of the best purchases I ever made
Isaac Bailey
Where can I learn how to properly mod my PS3 to play free games?
Please RESPOND
Easton Reyes
I can relate to some of those feelings and as much as I hate my job I'm thankful that the covid outbreak hasn't changed my life too much.
There's a book I read once called How to Be Miserable: 40 Strategies You Already Use
It didn't change my life but it helped me to see that the reason I get so down is because of how I react to shit events in life. I need to stop dwelling on things that don't or shouldn't matter and focus on things that will help me to be happy. I don't know if the book would help you but it's an interesting read.
Luke Edwards
I'm in this post and I don't like it.
Ryder Bell
you will have to get somebody to do it, and this will cost you ~$120, $60-80 of that will be shipping there/back. it's quite involved
Nathan Carter
Alright then how back just hacking it to play free ps3 games
please please PLEASE respond
Kevin Watson
Stop playing games for a little while. Take a break for a week or 2, maybe even a month. You'll come back and feel a bit better, and be in a better mental state to play games.
Aiden Rogers
I can relate, I realized that I should remove stress from my life and react to life with jest and don't take things hard.
I like to spend allot of time unwinding whenever I don't have to/don't want to study and then I work for hours and sometimes days without sleep because of this no-stress approach.
The medication helps with studying though
Dylan Ross
unless you have a ps3 from 10 years ago that never connected to the internet, it will be on high enough firmware that you have to hardmod it.
someone will have to do this for you. you might be able to find someone in a nearby city, but otherwise you will need to connect with someone online, pay to ship it there and back, and pay them
Asher Hall
Just trying citre on my pc. Where do you get your 3ds games?
Mason Evans

As for the games:
there's more than one way to install games:
1. installing as a psn title, it's a instalable .pkg file and a .rap file that you need to create a custom license or the game won't boot. videos on YouTube explain how to do that.
2. puting a .iso file or the extracted game folder inside a thumb drive/external HDD and running it as an emulated disc (if you want something more advanced you can transfer the files to the internal HDD)
one problem though: the PS3 can only read FAT32 file systems. That means you can't work with files bigger than 4GB (most games are much bigger). Lurk on reddit threads and YouTube videos to learn how to work around this issue. (Best way is to set up a PC to transfer files directly into the PS3 through your LAN)
to download games there are also reddit threads that can help you
Brandon Morris
I've pirated games my entire life, only recently buying some of them, and have never experienced this OP. Literally just play whatever you find interesting and pick up another hobby unrelated to technology so it feels like a breath of fresh air when you play a game.
t. learning another language before I play vidya all night
Nathan Myers
no sorry
DS/GBA you just buy flash carts, Dreamcast you can burn your own CDs, Wii/Wii U you only need a PC to run a few programs, 3DS you literally just need any computer to move files and visit websites. dunno about the switch, haven't tried it yet.
the PS2/PS3 you need to hardmod which means soldering and shit
