I work from 8:30am to 6pm every weekday, I always want to finish my backlog of games but have to go to bed by 10pm so I end up only playing games for 10-15 mins per night. For all you gamers, how do you manage your time when your juggling work/responsibilities?

I still play my PC games. Just be disciplined. I play alternate days and every session is like 2 hours. Its ME time, so I play.

I also realise if you dont focus on finishing the game fast, you will enjoy the game more. Less stress and just go slow slow.

in this aspect, I am fortunate to work away from family. so every time is me time.

normally i can get about 1 to 1.5 hr of gaming everyday (or alternatively, watch movies) before I go to bed at 9.30 pm (takes about 30 mins for me to actually sleep).

i usually reach home from work at around 7pm+. After dinner + shower + some quality time with wife, i have about 1-2 hours of me time before i sleep. between those 1-2 hrs, i have to decide to browse internet or movie or gaming. Usually ends with either the 1st or 2nd cause too little time for game, no shiok. After awhile, i am feeling uninterested to play games even deep in my soul i want to. sad.gif

Tried sleeping at 12 but will feel lousy the next day. Maybe because I'm old. cry.gif

Nowadays I find it impossible to find time to play games, not sure how people could do it when life gets in the way. hmm.gif

old? How old are you bro?

I'm among the oldest gamers here, with both family & work commitment
yet I still can squeeze in one or two hours of gaming daily depends on mood

how early you need to wake up? once you're getting older, you tends to require lesser sleep time
as long as I gets minimal 6 hours of sleep, I'm all good the next day

sleep too early says around 10 or 11pm, I'll tend to wake up in the middle of the night around 3, 4am, and will have problem getting back to sleep
hence I sleep around 12am, and my me time starts from 10pm, when my family all already gone to bed. wink.gif

finding time to game is not that hard wink.gif

most of my play time is in weekends, I live away from family so I can get extended me time.

once in a while comes a game that can work in short session, I can play at night for like 30 minutes, use the PS4 suspend feature to get more play time out of it.

Just got a new job recently. Need to stayback quite often until late night, so I don't really have any mood to play sp story focused games. Will play mp games like fortnite or apex.

Not good for your health...been there, done that.

Make sure you have at least 6 hours of sleep.
