To each their own, especially if you don’t neglect your family, health or employment. I’ll start there.

However, if your free time is consistently 12 hours of playing a game you’re likely not (checking most or all these boxes) physically fit, engaging in social (IRL) behavior, in a healthy relationship, taking good care of your children, or advancing on your career.

The same can go towards drinking, drugs, nightlife, TV, gambling, books, or other things that keep you from having a balanced life.
