Just buy used games, even fucking digital keys to like a 2 or 3 year old game is still lile 40% the price youd pay on steam, not jumping between games every 2 seconds helps too

You really wanna play videogames because they've captured your dopamine reward systems. I'm sure you're aware by now that the biggest companies literally employ fucking psychiatrists to engineer their gameplay loops to be as addicting as humanly possible (this is not schizo shit, look it up)

The earlier you get out, the easier it will be. If you continue down this path for the next 10 years you'll have literally nothing to show for it and probably want to kill yourself, with good reason.

i'm not saying you can't play anything, but find another hobby with tangible real life benefits, so gaming isnt the only thing you're doing. Something that keeps you fit, or something that keeps you regularly social (in real life). This is how you find a wife.

Do that, go to college, treat videogames like drugs or alcohol (good for fun but not for all the time), and you'll be sweet bro
