This is exactly what I'm doing right now. I play a game that I can play for 2 hours daily max and it's fine, I can do without it easily. I also fell into the OW2 trap and I became unbearable to the people around me.
I feel like I didn't word myself properly because I haven't played WoW or any of the "problematic" games for 6 months now. I managed to keep myself occupied with cross stitching and books. It's when I see footage/hear music that I get these feelings of wanting to play again.
Exactly this. I became grumpy and angry, couldn't stop "because I just have to win once" and felt like an addict. It's a very similar feeling to alcohol which I quit 5 years ago.
Take care. Good on you for managing it with other hobbies!
