Man everyone is so serious today.  What is it international be serious day?  It was a tongue-in-cheek sans the hand motion post.

Playing games and having fun is a serious matter!

There we all were, we had a man down, a gaming rut post can never be taken lightly, we came to help!

Try to start reading a book on a subject another one of your game's covers. Perhaps it will inspire you to game what you are reading about.

Ha!  Funny enough I was thinking I should get WitE and play it.  It seems so daunting however compared to D3 where all I need to do is click a few mouse buttons with no actual thought about a grand strategy to beat the winter blizzards and Russian hordes.

I've been playing Steel Panthers for 40 years and my memory is like new.

I was addicted to D3 until I realized that I had to play the same damn story again and again just to get my character to higher levels. That put that one down.

BUY MOAR GAMES! ENCOURAGE ADD! IMPULSE BUY ON STEAM!

Actually, I have a copy of DOTA 2 for free, if you want it. I don't know if we are Steam pals, but I should be easy to find as baelthazar. It is sort of like D3, only mixed with an RTS.

I tend to resort to playing a handful of the fancier Roguelike RPGs when everything else seems too much of a bother or just un-interesting.  Since they're turn-based, there's no time pressure, yet I still get to collect sweet sweet loot.  Sure - you die horribly on a regular basis, but there is usually so much randomness and customization options that starting a new game is always fun and I don't get too attached to anything.

That, or do a little reading.  But the latter isn't a very good long-term substitute for something to keep your brain engaged in the same manner.  I suppose another is sports management type sims because they're so different than the rest of the catalog -  even if it's just to selectively do the most interesting parts - drafts, trades, & contract negotiations - and let the AI handle the details.

Or stare at bewbs?

Bewbs are so great but somehow I am glad they mostly come attached on girls.
They are fun to look at on the puter here when you do not want to clean the house.

You, sir, are in serious danger of someone making that a sig line around here.

Get free from that rut, before it kills you. It could be anything, but in any case, sameness kills you, one item at a time. Here are a few basic tips for getting things back in line and actually living.
