The phantom presence:
You’re probably addicted to your game if you find yourself attempting in some way to engage in it even when you’re not playing. A game’s phantom presence manifests itself in many ways: listening to the OST when you’re driving to work, talking to your clan mates more than you talk to your friends, watching broadcasts and let’s plays in your spare time, daydreaming about a new piece of gear… these are a few of the most common examples. I frequently found that when my wife and I had our down time - enjoying a beer or chatting before bed - I’d have a Destiny wiki pulled up on my phone, checking the most effective areas to farm a certain material or seeing what Xur was selling for the weekend. If your gaming habit has pushed across bridges into parts of your life that should remain separate, you might need to reconsider your priorities and make some adjustments.
