I pretty much went ghost mode after the Elden Ring plat lol. Obviously I've stopped trophy hunting so I'm hiding all future trophies, just so my profile reflects the time I was trophy hunting. It was was a good seven or so years, I never did anything amazing compared to others but I had fun the entire time. Elden Ring being my 50th plat just felt like a natural stopping point.
The last few months I've been playing more stuff on steam, I bought a high end laptop and gotten into modding. I've been going out more too, mostly around Scotland hillwalking and mountain climbing, making shit tiktoks and insta posts of the places I've been. I still play most days though, I'll probably never stop gaming. I just wanted to play more casually and introduce new hobbies into my life so trophy hunting was the sacrificial lamb.
I hope everyones been doing well!

In the same boat
achieved what I wanted to achieve this year and putting focused trophy hunting to rest. Started painting and a proper exercise so something has to give and considering how time consuming trophy hunting is.... I will still plat games I really really like but not gonna go out of my way to do everything.

Paintings a fantastic hobby (or career!). What kinda stuff you doing? I got into it a little at the end of last year, did a few landscapes then decided I'd rather walk the landscapes I was painting haha. Suppose I could do both!
The time sink that is trophy hunting was always my biggest issue, I prefer open world games too so I sunk hundreds of hours into RDR2, Vahalla, GTAV, Elden Ring ect. My preferences were never a good match for trophy hunting lol. I'm glad to hear you sound like you're in a good place in life! -
I just started with painting actually. I am mostly drawing just with pencil but decided to give acryl a chance. I usually do comics related stuff although I try to do any picture that captures my imagination on first go. But nothing realistic (or close to), I'm not there yet - although not even sure I want to be, I feel like that does not really suit my style. But I'm also not doing anything original yet, more like replicating pictures that already exist. But due to tons of gaming I don't practice as often as I'd like.
