This actually started with modding. After I wrote mods, gaming just wasn't as much fun. Since then I've experienced what it's like to make musical, literary, and physical works.
Interactive and consumptive media do little for me anymore with the exception of music and some audiobooks.
It is strange to want to relax, but not be able to in the way I used to do so. I'll do some contemplation and see what happens.

Good for you. I've also been trying to find new ways to scratch the creative itch.
