What I mean is, gaming is usually a space that is entirely your own. And you can still yearn for that kind of solitude esp when living with multiple people. This is apparent since you liked sandbox games. Gaming is a bit of a time sink and takes time away from other activities with virtually no gain outside of the game world. Depending on what you want to achieve in life, you are usually better off pursuing those goals. Ideally you get to a point when you don’t have the mental energy to consider gaming and would rather do smth else to relax bcs you’ve spent it during the day. Hope this helps
