If you can eat 1.5 meals a day and pay rent, you should really be spending your money on food.

There are other things you can do for fun that cost nothing like going for a run, working out, going to a library, borrowing board game or cards from the library to play with friends….

Other people have different needs from you. What if they're dieting? What if they just worked a 10 hour shift and need to decompress at home? What if they're disabled and can't go out often? What if they don't have friends?

Let's not make a moral judgment here. There are far worse things to do than playing steam games like drugs, binge drinking, smoking, committing a robbery, etc.

I think if i have to spend every dime on rent and food, i would just kill myself since at that point you are only living to work.

There are games that cost like $2-5 on Steam

Unless you spend more labor-hours on cooking vats of rice and dry beans (or similar “low cost, affordable” options) and sticking to that exclusively it’s not going to meaningfully increase the meals you can eat.

As long as OP only has themselves to feed I don’t see an issue with this choice.

The downvotes are excessive, but if they have the disposable money to either up that to 2.5 meals per day or spend it on games, who am I to judge which they choose? (As long as they aren't underweight or nutrient deficient) Many people purposely eat One Meal A Day...
