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

[Chronitis]

Have you ever gotten so into binging a tv series or playing a game that was just so good, you found yourself not getting much work done.

That's my whole life in a nutshell.

In between binge watching Yu-Gi-Oh for the 50th time in my life, I also get swept up into playing League of Legends. Because of this, pages that shouldn't take more than a couple hours to finish end up taking me the whole day lol.

When hasn't a video game or anime distracted me? . w.'

[dawgofdawgness]

Definitely I've done a lot of my thumbnailing in front of my computer but not video games! My computer is too slow for that

THANKS INTEL!!

I took an unexpected hiatus for like 2 weeks when Persona 5 came out...

I do this often. haha.

[OliviaMerteli]

This or others thing. I'm pretty easyly distracted.

Some days I'll get really interested in watching videos from certain people on youtube, and thus cuts down on my comic/art time. Like I've had days in the past where I didn't feel like doing anything but watch Nostalgia Critic or Phelous vids. Luckily I've exhausted most of their libraries now (at least the series that most interest me).

Watching my older sister play Overwatch when she comes over, distracts me from literally everything. I don't watch much t.v., but a good podcast that puts me on edge can distract me pretty badly. :s

Whenever I get distracted by a videogame, show, or anything, I always come back with fresh ideas that I could implement in my comic - in other words, I pick my distractions carefully.

Since this year started, I have watched Westworld, Runaways, The Good Place, Legion and The End of The F*** World. I also finished Guacamelee Super Turbo Championsip Edition and Blackwell Unbound.

I have written two strips worth of script.

Two.
Strips.

I feel doomed.

You just describe my life.

[Rochrok]

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.

[SpavVy]

....yes

[anitacomics]

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

[indagold]

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.

[KSlinger]

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!

[eleoza]

takes deep breath

I PLAY POKEMON GO EVER YDAY! I PLAY POKEMON GO!~

[KoreanTacos]

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

[Aspie_Gamer]

cough Breath of the Wild cough

[shaylafarley5]

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