The End of a MMorpg Gamer ( Have i reach the end of the road? )

Since i'm a guy who enjoy gaming i find i should do a thread on life as a gamer

Recently ...maybe 1 year ago i found out that gaming especially the MMorpg is getting harder and harder for me to be focus in them.... when i was young 17-22 i can keep up with the pace of the grinding... the long hours i spend on it ..the short hours i spend on sleeping and the amount of time i can dedicate on it....but now recently.... even if i got 3-4 hour to spare i just cant seem to focus in them.....arrgh!

Here's a interesting gaming situation i find myself landed on hehe...maybe it happen to some of u as well

When i'm still schooling ...16-20 .. i ever played a game and see ppl paying farmers money for ingame items or premium items like double exp scroll or reset stats potion and many more to make their lvling/grinding faster and more efficient and u only cursed urself for not owning enuff money or a credit card/debit card to have to previliages... HOWEVER.... ur leveling speed is almost the same as those who bought those double exp scroll since u dedicated 80% of ur time to keep up with those ppl.......

Now here's the twist... when i reach 25+ ...it is me who bought money from farmers and me who buy double exp scroll etc to improve my leveling speed BUT this time even with my double exp scroll and premium items... i am constantly outlevel and out class by those who never bought those items....the only reasons i find myself constantly getting into this situation is because..... i'm no longer a kid/teenager anymore... i have to dedicate more % of time at work and social life ... no longer i can spend 80% of my time in game...the most i can squeeze out is 50% and during that 50% i'm not even in my 100% mood/strength to game ... most of the time i'm 50% awake grinding ...due to the fact i am always tired after work...

Am i at the end of the road as a mmorpg gamer or am i just burn out after 10 years of grinding?...but at the end of the day i think the problem lies in Not enough time to manage anymore...MMORPG is an addiction...no doubt about it ..everyone knows it ...those who are an addict knew about it but they just cant stand the temptation ...just like smokers.... the thrills of gaining level , armor ...new items.....Player kill someone and trash talking the noobs... those are the words that keep gamer spending 80% of their time glue on their PC...i am one of them ..i admit it 101%...but in recently years...it seems the addiction is lessening....though the thrill of it still keep me HIGH :P

Well ...all in all i know my times in the MMORPG world is beginning to end....nowadays i get my daily dose of gaming thru mostly DOTA and sometime some RTS games...... heck i even play Nintendo Wii ! Guess its time to bid the my avatar good bye soon.....

Nick i used thru out my mmorpg life.... in no orders
