I know I complain an awful lot about video games, which is more than a little petty and stupid, but I just can't shake the feeling that I'm basically unable to keep up anymore.
The following cycle seems to repeat itself endlessly with social or multiplayer games:
1.) A new game that looks really fun comes out! Wow! I absolutely want to play this, but I'm a little busy now.
2.) Several weeks pass before I can even start.
3.) I can play now, but since I'm so far behind, I am effectively unable to play with anyone else because I would be dead weight. My inability to put in time and improve means I'm a liability rather than a team member, or else I'm getting stomped so hard it's not fun for the opponents and I'm not learning anything other than "You Suck".
It's just really weird. Like, "Oops, I couldn't play this game constantly since release, too late".
