I know that this is a place for collectionners and hardcore gamers but i was wondering if you all had other interests or activities besides video games ? I mean, most people here probably are working or studying at school.

Mine are History, Languages and most of all Gaming evolution/secrets, i used to love computer science but i guess interests change with time.
I also love editing and i watch a lot of youtube videos about a plethora of subjects.

But i won't judge what your hobbies are even if it's something like collecting dwarfs figures.

At this point, aside from video games and then the standard relaxation like reading/writing/etc., it isn't much do to work. I would develop software tools to do small things for me when doing research, or make fun little games. But since I develop software in my day to day, I don't always have the drive to do stuff like that after work

i do think that reading at least 15 minutes per day can be comfortable for your mind even if it's just a comic/manga it still is worth it as you don't spend time on your screen which helps to get to sleep.
writing and coding are also interesting i used to code a while but it's no longer my interest so i moved on to more litteral subjects and this is how i learnt english as it was easier for a french speaker to learn this language.

I'm a big reader these days, specifically audiobooks. Used to read a lot in middle school, but got knocked out of it until I was wrapping up college. Now I try to make sure I read at least a book a month (which is still pretty slow tbh), but I do love it. I just started the Brandon Sanderson Cosmere universe which I'm loving. I finally have a place that I can grow some plants too! I'm interested in learning something physical, like martial arts, but I think I need to get into better shape first.

Can't say I'm into reading unfortunately, a lot of my other hobbies are relatively adjacent to games. I like to collect movies/shows, from 4K to DVD depending on what the best format is for the respective title. I also listen to a ton of music, almost entirely from games or movies. I'd like to collect music but unfortunately most games don't get soundtrack releases. I collect plushes of various characters, mostly Mario. Also into general tech, recording stuff, politics, and going for walks, Besides all of that, I do watch way too much YouTube as well.
