>wasted most of my late teenager/early adult years trying to make my dream game
>failed multiple times because I didn't have the coding experience to pull such an ambitious idea off
>gave up a few years ago
>fast forward to today, finally feel I could pull it off
>problem is: I don't have the motivation anymore
I don't feel like spending 4 hours everyday writing code anymore, specially considering I'm not in STEM.
But more importantly: I don't play videogames anymore (I think the last game I've played was cyberpunk in 2021). It just doesn't feel right to me as an adult to play with digital toys.
And yet, my biggest fear is to die without having created anything, and making a videogame is the closest thing I can think of to creating an actual world.
I don't know what to do.
