I both love and hate those periods of time when I get sucked into an MMORPG. Usually this comes when a game first launches, or an expansion rolls out, or I “rediscover” the title. In any case, it’s a giddy rush to want to pour every gaming minute into it, eager to return to it after I left.
On the other hand, I know this is a fleeting period that disrupts the helpful routine that I normally establish and can even flip from “obsession” to “burnout” very quickly if I’m not careful. So while it’s fun to have those periods, I don’t want to stay in them for too long.
