    The only thing this applies to me for is my psn account. Not that i do it often, but if i do sign on to play something during the day and work hours i sign on as offline just in case. At night ill play with a few friends and rarely when ppl say ok last game then leave ill go offline because i wasnt ready to go to bed and dont want them to know lol. Especially since i have 1 friend who does stay up after and would probably continue playing something with me but all i wanna do is play my 1 player game till i pass out.

      This is kinda why I don’t play much online with friends anymore. My ADHD is at the point where I can get bored with games pretty easily. There have been times where I’ve wanted to play something but then by the time it’s running in the menu or my save has loaded, I realize that I actually have zero interest in it right now.

      Or I might want to take a 5 minute break that turns into 1.5 hours because I got distracted and into that distraction.

      A game with someone else is just too much of a commitment.

        This sounds like me honestly. Although i do get past the menu and load screens haha. Sometimes i want to play something and just end up not forcing myself to so i just sit there instead. I am also fine with playing with my friends anytime, but we have been stuck playing the same game for 6 years now… just fall guys every night or every other night haha. Its mindless fun and not competitive and easy to talk about whatever during it. We want to pick up a new game but theres pretty much nothing else like it and we all cant agree on anything else. We dont want a game that needs commitment, just something we can jump into for an hour and laugh.
