I’ve had a game in development stalled for a month because I’m also writing a story, but the story is also half stalled because I’m replaying a game, and I’m already getting frustrated.
It’s something that is starting to bothering me, it seems like I can’t do something if I’m not completely immersed in it: If I want to watch movies or a series, I must do a marathon; if I want to play a game, I must pass it in less than a week; if I want to make a game, I must get into a Crunch because “reasons”; if I want to write, I must work on making it the best story I’ve ever written so far.
Is this normal? should I not worry so much? or how can I better manage the things I want and need to do?
Can’t say if its “normal” or not but I’m exactly the same. It sucks sometimes cause I want to work on multiple things. Developing a project, learning a instrument, learning a new language, training cardio. But I seem to only have time for one at a time. Because I’ll put soo much time into that one. Whichever one is most interesting at the time.
At the same time though I kind of think its a good thing cause when I’m interested in something I can have a lot of fun and make a lot of progress fast.
But yeah if I find a new TV show or game I have to completely finish it before I can get back to being productive.
