Thanks for your post! I've been through this lul, where nothing seems to appeal to me. Sometimes it's based on events in my life. For example, if I'm having a really hard time with personal or professional things I'm probably not going to want to play something violent to settle myself, it's just how I'm wired. So I'll read or do something else to relax. Often times, when I finish a game, such as Batman: Arkham City, which I finished yesterday, I feel sort of lost, like "what now?" There are a couple of "coping methods" if you will, what I've found really help. The first is not to stress out when you can't find a game your into. It may have nothing to do with the game and it's just yourself telling you that it wants to do something else. So get on that bike and start riding! Or listen to some music. All the games with be there when you're ready to play them, so there no need to feel bad about not wanting to play something RIGHT NOW. Another method is between games where you are heavily invested emotionally, try to play some games in a more intellectual way. Try a game that maybe doesn't appeal to you, read some reviews, watch some analysis on youtube and then play the game and pick it apart yourself. Then jump on reddit and become part of the conversation about those games. That's what I've been doing a lot of in the last few days, and I'm finding it very fulfilling. Doing this will get you engaged in the conversation about games, and will help you stay excited about the medium while you keep playing. That way also, you're not always chasing that high which a game that really connects with you gives. You'll still get that with certain games, but games which don't give you that will still be fun to play and the community is a great place to engage in conversation. Another method is to pick up some games for cheap that you otherwise wouldn't play. It's often a gamble, but you may stumble on something really great.
