In my case there's a huge timeframe between 2008 and 2025 I have played mainly multiplayer games like Tibia, Runescape, Realm of Mad God, Counter-Strike, Killing Floor and rarely touched singleplayer games.
I have barely touched GTA1, GTA2, GTA 4 or GTA 5 (finished GTA3 and GTA:SA not so long time ago). I have spent 30 mins in Skyrim. In Witcher 3 2-3 hours while (Witcher 1,2 stay unfinished). HalfLife series keep waiting for me to come back and lead Gordon to the end of the story.
I can go with more and more examples with classic singleplayer games which patiently wait in my library and if you ask me, the multiplayer games really "help in this regard.

Not sure about this. I have a couple friend who own ~5k games on Steam and all they play is either Dota 2 or CS2. It's been like that for years and I don't see any improvement on that state. :)

That doesn't sound patient, frankly if you're buying games and not playing them that sounds distracted and wasteful

You need a bit less patient and a bit more gamer.

No thanks. I actually did the opposite and avoid sweaty PvP and competitive multiplayer games and spend my time with single player experiences. The closest online game I play is XIV.
