Depression / Sadness after completing a videogame?

My special interest is video games and I love them because I can imagine me in the world and get really super attached to the main character like I was him! I always listen to the music related to the videogame I am currently interested in when I am not playing it like when I'm walking to work etc, it helsps me imagine me in that world again. Over the past few weeks, I've been relating my imaginary life to Infamous Second Son on the Playstatin 4, now that I've completed the story on both good and evil playthroughs, there's nothing else I can do in the game and I feel my imagainary bond has been detached again, this I think makes me depressed or sad that I have no world to relate to again until a new game comes out or another game that I feel like I'll bond with the character again! Just wondered if anyone else understands this type of feeling or had this type of feeling before? I mean.... I just wish a videogame would last forever, it's really difficult to feel like I've saved the world, done everything possible then it's... over.... it just feels like I have to wave a massive goodbye to the main character remembering every single moment and adventure we had together.

It is really annoying, when I'm playing the game... I really want to see the ending and what happens then when it's over, I just wish that it lasted longer!

  • I am a passionate gamer myself, i have played a lot of game series and then they end, bit of advice if you want the experience to last a bit longer why not attempt the platinum trophy that way your spending more time on the game, and by the time you have achieved this there might be a new sensation that grabs your eye, sometimes theres dlc to extend the game, but it can be pricey, however some dlc adds extra story to the game, hope this helps
