Seriously how do people manage to make a dent in their backlog, if they have to work at least 40 hours a week, then also include stuff like commute and shit.

You stop buying anything newer than three years old or more expensive than 20 bucks if AAA and 5 if indie and you don't play anything live service. Your backlog is a shield to protect you from the industry, use it.

I wfh. Even if I could earn a bit more by getting a job where I have to commute, I really don't want to go back to commuting. I hate getting up, getting out, getting in the car and wasting a significant chunk of my day on that shit.
And not having that anymore is something that can't be weighed with money.

I don't have a backlog anymore. Just a list of games in interested in and play when I feel like it.
What you should do is just stop buying games and pirate everything. That way you don't have to worry about backlogs.

I had a friend contact me recently to ask what's up, and when I asked what they were up to they just said they were working, and with an NDA on what they do so they couldn't talk about it. They were so devoted to their work they stopped reading comics we discussed together, didn't play any games, and barely watched normalfag shows. We didn't really have anything in common to actually talk about, and it was awkward as fuck. Just depressing as shit.

>>

>>737139662
They don't. Most people don't even finish the new games they buy, and the average number of games played per person in a year is 3, which is probably one live service game, one AAA tentpole release, and one flavor of the month game their friends convinced them to play with them. I beat 30-40 games each year and my backlog is still growing.

Never said I'm a blue "color" worker, retard.
But acting like all blue collar jobs can be done by grabbing a random dude off the street is as retarded as thinking your shitty blabla bullshit job needs any skill whatsoever.
In fact, the highest paid jobs are usually those with the largest share of fucking idiots (case in point: pick any c-suite).

it helps that someone working a full-time job is less likely to be sucked in to FOTM extraction shooter slop games since they'll be busy working instead of hearing about how you HAVE to play the newest Concord-lite.

I usually quit if my commute turns into more than 20 minutes each way.
I spend most of my sunday afternoon/evening doing prep for the week. Meal prep, go get gas if necessary, clean up calendar.
I work from home monday so it's easy to warm up to the week and my workload, and if I need to do anything I couldn't sunday, I get it done. Tues/wed/thur I work in office, 20 minute drive there, 20 minutes back, leave at 7:30, get home about 5:30 (usually closer to 5:00). Have 4-5 hours to do whatever the fuck I want, usually play games for 2h~, make dinner, eat watching youtube or something, then shower and sleep. Wake up at 5:00, wake up with some brekky and then get ready at a snails pace cause I hate mornings. Repeat till friday, work from home again, get to cool off slowly, ensure everything is finished, align my work for the next week and do any minor shit around the house (sweeping/vacuuming/mopping when I have time, dishes cause I usually let them pile up over the week). Finish my day early, go to sleep early, sleep till whatever time I want, wake up, go to the gym. I don't do daily gymwork anymore, I recently hit some sort of weird mental milestone where I just don't get hungry anymore, so I lost like 250~lb (450->180) over the last couple years and I don't care about being muscular, I mostly just maintain. Get home after a few hours, play shit for like 8-10 hours, at some point in that block go get groceries for the following week (produce/etc, anything I CAN stockpile or freeze I tend to get once a month when I go to costco), then I go to sleep at my leisure, wake up when I want, fuck around or finish up any grocery related chopping or portioning.
Only time I've ever really had issues in my life is when I'm dating. That fucks everything up cause they're not autistic and don't like scheduling. Maybe one day I find a nice autistic girl to spend a properly assigned hour with every other night to hang out.

I think I completed more games working 40 hours a week than I did during my unemployed or underemployed years. Either I'd be procrastinating or I'd already be done with my commitment for the week (can't go too fast or the other roles get overwhelmed).
That was remote work, though, when my commute was 4 hours a day starting the job I would just come home and immediately sleep.
Pic related was despite my 40-hour-a-week job, going on dates semi-regularly, and getting in a nasty car crash that meant I had to car hunt

You got the ideal. I'm still on the outdated 5 days a week and you pretty much want to do nothing because you really only have 1 true day off a week aka the day where you don't have work and know you don't have work the next day. I just want to fucking sleep.

I have never seen any of the people I actually do think work too much and should slow down a bit record themselves working.

I organized my Steam library by genre and general vibes like "comfy", "quick game", etc. I hoped that by doing so I could chip away at my backlog because I can easily pick something based on what I'm in the mood to play.
It's almost May, and I think I've finished maybe 3 games because I keep playing the same couple of games with no real ends. Or I do other things.
I WFH too. So I don't get why I fall into the mental pitfall of feeling like I don't have time for a lot of games I'm interested in.

I work in a call center (I manage IRAs so it's "slightly" more prestigious since I got FINRA licensing) and every month we spin a wheel a set number of times based on each employee's performance. Among the prizes include a apltry handful of points for a store that has anything more interesting than a 30 page shelfwarming self-help book cost 500 points, $10, or "backskill" which puts us at the bottom of the call cue for the day you request. The average person gets, at most, 2-3 backskill days per month.
This is deemed the most high value, and all it does is lower call volume by maybe 50% for one day. People hoard them like gold. Though I'll give my job slightly more merit because they'll just randomly blast me with multiple free 15-20 minute breaks in sets of 3-6 multiple times per week. Still sucks tho lmao

Think about it this way around 20% of the workers do 80% of the actual work.
What about those 80% of people? They are often a burden for the rest. If you ever worked for a larger company it would be obvious for you.
Management, HR, nepo-babies, interns etc. those people are a large chunk of the workforce.

That's crazy in my country you don't get paid full benefits until you're 25 and before that, if you have no employment history, you're only given around about 60-80 dollars weekly. My friend lived off of that amount from the time he was 18 till then.

bodies of water are interconnected, therefore individual ownership cannot keep shared resources from being poisoned / depleted through abuse. A classic example of the Tragedy of the Commons. Without an arbiter managing the proper use of a resource, every individual has to be constantly paranoid that someone else might abuse it, and be incentivized to do it themselves before someone else does, even if they themselves have good intentions.

I'm not an expert so take this with a lot of salt.
There are genuinely a lot of issues people have or can be grown into as a kid due to their environment, but I also partly blame the medical/health industry for overprescribing/diagnosing issues to make money.
ADD/ADHD is/was grossly over diagnosed because people couldn't understand that high energy children, especially those with a shitty high sugar diet that can be frequent in the US, will have a hard time being forced to sit in desk listening to someone blab for 8hrs/day 5days/week.
Now you have social media and tik tok and all these health influencers trying to shill products and make people think they have some mental issue for a quick explanation to their problems that everyone is popping pills. I can't stand it when people make mental health issues their personality because it's popular, and they think it makes them quirky. IIRC for a while Hollywood was trying to make it seem like having autism was a superpower.
TL:DR
Medical industry over diagnosing problems to sell pills and mass amounts of retards trying to find an easy explanation/excuse.

It's usually because A) they're either genuinely uneducated about how shit their situation is or B) are coping with the fact that they weren't able to secure a better paying job and more cush lifestyle. I respect blue collar workers as much as everybody else, but whenever some of them brag about how many hours they worked per week or how the shit they do makes them a "real man", I just roll my eyes. I'm happy my poor parents forced me to grind my ass off in school so that I wouldn't end up in their position.

I can't even hold a minimum wage Mcjob for more than a few months without getting fired anymore. I'm no more autistic than I was when I started working during the pandemic. There's just too many HR roasties trickling down from big corporations and they all want to manage fast food places for some reason.
I wish there was a way to escape them besides going to work slave hours on an oil rig somewhere.

Most of the people that do that are essentially trapped in their shitty job because they need the money for bills and their family. If you're working that long on your accord, then you are just killing yourself for no reason.

220 hours a month is like 45 hours a week. Thats basically a regular full time job? I work that much and game all the time. Unless you have a freakishly long commute, you should have like 4-6 hours of free time through the week and weekends off

>They grill you on that after a while
If any job ever grilled me on that, I would immediately ask how often they shit, how much money they are paid to fuck around with bullshit "meetings", and probably quit on the fucking spot. Fuck these cunts, anyone trying to police your fucking bodily functions can suck a fat dick

there's same opportunities at my job and I'm trying to get into that because the travelling is actually the best part
my NEETing days was a chill time for me but actually having cash to throw around is so much better

I avoid using public restrooms all together because that shit is gross, you are sitting on some other fatfuck's asscheek sweat, piss and shitstains. I bet you're the type of nigger that doesn't even flush either.

Well, the pay is pretty good for an entry level job. Can pay off my uni in a couple of months and then I'll probably quit. I just don't get the people who do it for years. They all just say that the money's worth it.

Pissing is fine but shitting? All your co-workers have to pick up your slack because your fatass has to take a one hour shit everyday. If I was your boss, I would fire you immediately and replace you with somebody actually useful.

Ends up being around 50 hours a week. This is considered a fuck ton and bordering illegality where I'm from. Even if I do have some free time, I'm just can't keep myself focused. I'd rather just watch some slop and fall asleep.

I see blue collar guys with huge beautiful properties, tons of equipment, a large family and lots of free time after they've paid it all off. They also have the skills and physicality to do everything they need on their multi-acre homesteads and they have a blast doing it. Still haven't seen a sql guy with any of that.

I don't, I've got the loopholes
not that it matters for most, their employers skim the tax off of their paychecks for them anyway so they can report a number that the government already knows to the government
but if everyone listens to you and stops working then no more tax and no more gibs
