I hate video games, but I play them.

I think the problem is that I enjoy them for immersion and storytelling, but getting involved in the world to the point of enjoyment takes a lot of time, and I don't really have enough of it. I find a few minutes here and there for online activities like hubski, but rarely do I have a stretch of several hours to sacrifice on a game.

I love pretty much any bioware rpg (So KOTOR, Dragon Age, Mass Effect), and I'm a fan of bethesda games, but I've never been able to get into games like Counter Strike or Team Fortress where the objective is just to win, and there isn't any story to carry that along or motivate me (although some of valves games are really good on the storytelling front.)
