Sadly, yes. Used to be quite the opposite, but nowadays I don't really enjoy playing a game for 5 hours straight like I used to.

For me it depends. When I really get into a game, I can play for hours, but burnout comes more quickly.

Hell. Yes. Playing games is just so much work sometimes.

Yes.
I rarely play games anymore, it seems like. It seems as though I prefer the ideas of games more than just playing them.

I've pretty much always been like that. My roommates make fun of me for owning a bunch of games I don't even play.

I'm probably the laziest. Nowadays, rather than play a whole game through, I just go on any of the streaming sites and watch someone else play the game.
