While I don't disagree with this assertion that real life is more important than a game, I do disagree with the urgency attached to most of the reasons she gives me for stopping.
One other thing is that she will sometimes ask me to stop just for the sake of stopping. I.E. there are no plans to go anywhere, most of the housework is already done, etc... I'm free to do whatever I want as long as it isn't a game. This seems somewhat ridiculous to me. I don't mind not playing a game to actually do something, but she rarely wants to do something that's entertaining for us both.
Basically, calm rational discussion is the best way to get me off a game. Reasonable limits are acceptable. Asking me to do something around the house is reasonable but don't expect me to instantly jump up and do it. Not playing at all isn't reasonable. Trying to turn the game off in the middle of an un-pausable event also isn't reasonable. If my wife asks me to do something and I don't do it within an hour, I'd say I was not being reasonable. Usually even in games that can't be paused there is some sort of break point where I can get up and do something.

Hello my ex wife and my two teenage daughters spend every waking hour on social media not making income or playing online mmo games. They don’t talk much, shower and neglect family attention and outings. We talked about the his a few times, it did not improve. I told my now ex wife to find s job I was moving out the weekend of your first paycheck. 6 months after I moved out she filed for divorce for comparable differences that could not be resolved. Now she wants a free hand out I don’t think so. Not giving up my standard of living so they can all stay home and game 20 hours a day. But yes guest, if thy won’t chsnge its time to move on real life matters not silly video games.

I totally understand I am now divorced after 11 years that all started with video game addiction. He couldn't stop day and night this would go on. If he get laid off of work...back to the games. The games made him mean and angry to, he was verbally abusive. First it was a game called quake then league of legends there have been so many. I felt isolated and lonely it didn't matter what I tried to do he always went back to the addiction as well as smoking pot. I started living my own life without him I don't even think he noticed me leave. This was so tormenting and the most miserable marriage, plus two children needing us. I have no regrets I believe his addiction is what lead us to divorce, I'm ok with that now we get along fine but some things never change just more confirmation that I made the right choice. I feel for anyone in this predicament you can only do so much the text is up to them.
