Quick someone call Superman to spin the Earth really fast to save us!Yeah kind of feeling the same, I played M&B: Warband quite a lot but haven't played it for about a week now. I am now "trying" to play Skyrim. I've spent a good 1000 hours on that and I've modded the crap out of it, but half of the time I'm alt tabbed out or I just close the game and browse forums and read up on the Witcher 3.
4 days... I must... survive...
This is kinda crazy. I'm 30 years old. I've been a hardcore video-game addict since I started with Super Mario on Nes when I was like 7-8 years old. I've been ultra-hyped for games before (Skyrim, Fallout 3 etc) but this is the FIRST time this has actually happened to me;
I am incapable of enjoying any games due to the W3 hype.
Recently I've been playing dota 2 (3500+ hours played total), D3, pillars of eternity, SC2, hearthstone +++. But right now I can't even log into them.
I'm sitting here with a bloodstained F5 key and 12+ tabs up reading Witcher news, forums and so on. The mere thought of having fun playing other games are drained out of me.
I need a support group, someone share their pain or give me a hug before I lose my sanity![]()
I think this extra hype is going to kill the game for me.
My expectations are to high for the game now. And there is no place I can find any thing bad about the game.
A friend of mine just started tw2 and I'm listening to all his decision-making commentary and it's the only thing saving me from going insane. I can't play any of the other witcher games now, the hype is just too damn high -- it's like a nostalgia hit so heavy i've hit the deck and can't get up. I didn't think that cinematic would pucnh me in the jaw so hard
I'm in my 30s too and haven't been this hyped for a game in a long time. Sure I've been excited about games, but this is on a whole other level. Its crippling. I'm constantly visiting forums just to experience the game by proxy whilst at the same time trying to avoid spoilers. Like you, I can't look at another game or achieve any attempt to play and enjoy them. It all just leads back to looking at TW3 forums for more news.
Now I'm worrying that this game won't meet my ridiculous expectations.![]()
I'm 26 have 2 children and a wife, I usually play ps4 with 3 mates every night, the last few weeks I can't bring myself to load it up, just end up scrolling through here constantly until the early hours, I'm glad I'm not alone I thought I had a problem. Come Tuesday it won't be a problem anymore....
My names Dave and I'm a witcherholic
