I frequently find myself losing momentum at the end of things that I enjoy. For instance, I’ve been playing Baldur’s Gate 3 and loving it. I recently got into the last act (Act 3) of the game, and I’m finding myself a bit burned out on it and gravitating towards other games. I’m also in the last episode of Dimension 20’s Neverafter (yes, I’m a geek haha) and finding myself not interested in finishing it.
Does this happen to anyone else? I started on medication earlier this year, and lots of other symptoms of my ADHD have gone away, but this one seems to be persisting.
I’ve only have had this problem more recently. Can ADHD get worse as you get older? If I was into something, I would finish it pretty quickly. In the last few years, I find myself doing the same. Be really into a game, get close to the end and then just stop playing without seeing the end.
I don’t know about getting worse as you get older but this is my experience exactly. I didn’t use to have this issue.
That’s what makes it hard for me to know if this is simply my ADHD or if I just don’t like modern games as much. Or perhaps even a little of both! BG3 I was able to complete 3 times, despite not really feeling like playing games like that these days. Meanwhile, I can’t even force myself to play Starfield, and I usually would sink thousands of hours into previous Bethesda games that are really no different.
