Addiction shifting?

Is anybody else finding they are spending more time in the forums lately just to get away from the game?

For at least the last week or so I'll play a few rounds, get frustrated, and find myself browsing the forums.

    No, but I'm shifting my time from MPQ to other games
    Well, when I'm not busy grinding PVE for 8 hours every day, because that's what it takes to place T10 in a 4* release.

    Same here. I'm actually *actively* trying out other Marvel games or games recommended by alliance mates.

    For some reason I made my way back to WoW *shudder*. Though I try to get on MPQ daily. I have not taken part in the past 2 PVE's, and have not even started this season. The time no longer feels worth it.
    Though like I said I come on for the dailies so that my roster can continue to fill out for that fateful day I return to MPQ fulltime, if ever such a day does come.

    But I would probably say I spend more time on the forums than I do on the game.

    I often come here, get frustrated and go to beat up some hapless toon in pvp icon_e_wink.gif

    But as it goes, I did play around a bit with Marvel Heroes recently, but that is really all my time allows these days.

    It's true for me. I've noticed that I spend way more time on the Forums than playing the game during 4* PvE releases. I want to play MPQ, but I'm not going to grind my life away. Enter the Forum (which is somehow better).

    Nope. I'm still playing MPQ as much (or as little) as I want to. Smash Hit has been more 'normal' than Heavy Metal. PvE exists for distraction purposes now, competitive (trying for top 10) PvE is basically out of my schedule now.

    I've been mixing in Gems of War a little more during downtimes/shields, but while that game is fun and pretty casual, it's not MPQ.
  • i'm on the forum about ~5x as much as i play, granted i can only play for 20 min at a time, mostly because i want to fix the game so i can play it more.
