Same. At 40 I simply can't expend any of my limited time or energy with games, when I could be doing something productive/wholesome (which for me is lifting weights, reading and learning). It's a shame as I used to love playing RPGs and FPSs.

I have no issue playing games at nearly 40. After having been on a productivity grind since childhood, and having faced my mortality, I now appreciate having stepped back to smell the roses.
Exactly; there is so much to do that playing games feels like wasted time.. and time is getting shorter every day
