To be fair, you did just play the least fun part. (Destiny)

To me, even though the game is more fun than almost all other games, it's not why I've wasted so much of my time on it.

It's really more about having experiences with friends while playing. During hard mode Crota, people get a little stressed doing it right because we want to get it done before next year. But, during Bluerunner's Atheon run right after, we had quite a bit of fun! Exploring some new jumping puzzle things, trying some teleport blocking, doing the oracles legit, shotgunning the gatekeeper and meleeing the templar, etc.

Then we went into crucible, which I don't like alone. In fact, there was a game we were getting absolutely demolished on, and while one or two of us were getting frustrated, I feel like the rest of us were having fun. One of the guys we played had played for 1900 hours. Anyway, it was a lot of amazement at how good those dudes were and laughing. At least on my end.

There was nothing objectively amusing or fun about it, it was mostly a time sink, but it was a positive experience, because I wasn't depending on the game to give me fun, I made sure to make my own fun with the game as a medium.

If you're not having fun anymore, you probably should take a break. But to me, as long as I have stupid ideas and people willing to humour me while doing them, I'm going to have fun.
