Has a video game or tv show ever distracted you from your comic?

You just describe my life.

Yeah. I just finished playing the latest updates in swtor...after rerolling a sith Inquisitor to replay his class story again...now I'm thinking of playing Mass Effect again. I think I'm on a sci-fi kick these days. I'm trying to curb my habit by setting up a shedcule and a deadline for my comic.

All the time. I stopped putting interesting things in background when I draw, I mostly put stuff I've already seen

I don't know if this counts, been reading/watching juicy internet drama mostly more than working. Goddamnit why are strange people on the internet so darn fascinating.

Yep! This is why I don't play games anymore. I want to play the Witcher series and the new Assassins Creeds sooo badly but I know I'll loose months of drawing time if I do. Same with films. I went on horror film binge not long ago and now I'm stuck watching horror game walkthroughs. Curses!

I like RPGs and Fighting games so I actually have to set a timer for myself if I'm playing them when I have deadlines whether it's a comic update or a school assignment. If I don't then my entire day may end up being stuck being a Phantom Thief or beating the crap out of juggos in Dead or Alive

Yes! I'm currently playing a game and watching 2 new animes that I haven't drawn any comic pages in 4 days.

I don't watch tv much other then News and anime.

I do love video games though i always make sure i finish my comic work first.

We work on I love my yandere neko girlfriend every day and switch between one of our other 7 comics each day.

So basically we work on two comics a day, do our other responsibilities and then game the rest of the time which is about 5 to 6 hours XD

Some months ago, I rediscovered yu-gi-oh! and got into a game in xbox (which I am not so proud to have been playing since it's not really good). This made me took a hiatus for 4 months.

I'm the worst.

Have you tried Duel Links on the app store? That's a pretty good Yu-Gi-Oh game.

Velome 2018-01-15 02:53:57 UTC #25

Wish I could! But my phone is not good enough to run the app.

Every day of my life. Among my many other character flaws, procrastination reigns supreme.

I don't really play video games or watch TV/Shows but sometimes my little sister is next to me watching YouTube Kids shit and I get distracted just gawking at the horrible trash content.

I became addicted to Picarto art livestreams.

Every time I find a good game, I watch the campaigns.
Like, say GTA V, where the campaigns are 12 hours long.
Needless to say, that's where my weekends are wasted, instead of writing something.
And then there's also the Steam issue. God, all the free games...
Now, if someone can gift me a PC, I'll be able to play all the free games I downloaded.
(I got Shadow Warrior Remastered when it was free...but I can't play it! Grr. Mac problems...)

does looking at Beatles help movie scene where George got his shirt ripped off by a dryer and also how the beatles are very attractive when they we're in their suits and tie counts as distraction , George is hot

I'm not as big into TV but video games for sure have a way of distracting me. Especially if I'm close to finishing one. It's so easy to think, "Well if I just go ahead and finish that game I'll be able to think focus completely on the comic!" That sort of thing happens from time to time, for me.
