How about a Nintendo Wii console? To reply to the initial queston, I do not play StarCitizen, I do not play World of Warcraft, I do not play Dayz. I am probably a different type of gamer. :)

What, something like an Oculus/Meta Quest 2 and Beat Saber or one of the many other physically active games available for it?

I've played a bit of Blade and Sorcery in VR and while it may not be as demanding as running a marathon it does get the heart rate up a bit and would definitely be better exercise than sitting down playing for hours

Your doctor said that? I'd get a new doctor, LOL. It is totally possible to get a good 60 minute workout in (either all at once or in segments) every day and still have 23-8 hours to play video games. In fact, I often will use things like supercruise assist and a docking computer to give me some a little time to sneak in some curls or pushups during my gaming sessions. This is one of the reasons I don't play games like Elite exclusively in VR, because VR does tie me to the chair. Now VR in a game like Skyrim where I play standing up and physically launch arrows, that's a different story.

My best mate told me 'the only person who drinks more than you is your doctor'

I am wondering about some sort of bike powered gaming set up. drink bottles with spirits in one and beer of choice in the other. Dr Micmacmoc's prescription for a smiley corpse.

His notion of playing video games involves sitting but i am prepared to throw out my new sofa and get some kind of peleton walking machine and use it while interacting with a controlling. Also I am no longer prepared to waste my time going from A - B repeaty lin Elite the novelty has worn of long ago.
Young people also dont have tiem to waste and I want to keep thatyoung person mind set.
I am not talking about drinking simply what I was told to loose exces weight and reduce diabetes.

Never AFK while playing Elite :eek:

I really miss the old times where we did Wii evening sessions with tennis, boxing or mario cart.
That was really nice workout (for nerds) and gaming.

OP: I don't play all other games except Elite and Stellaris atm.
But you should really try roomscale VR games, they are the closest thing to exercise I can currently imagine.

I use my mobile phone to play Zombies, Run! and there's stuff for biking like Zwift which seems pretty cool with power ups and xp (and you can do it sitting down ;) ), but it is A Game That I Am Not Playing because I don't like indoors stuff and going outside is the best part of exercise really.

There's a ton of other apps and games that will gamify exercise for you in various ways without requiring the investment in VR and/or motion controls. Sports actually have many of the competitive (and hella grindy) aspects of video games, but people didn't do them for fun as much as they do now during modern times.

Supercruise Stretchin' is something I would also generally recommend for longer play sessions.
