I don’t know that I would ever call gaming comforting, but I will call it a comfort.
In a lot of ways, gaming is work. Especially for the Game Master, which is usually me. Even as a player, you have to put effort in. That can be building your character correctly or making sure that you are biting onto the GM’s plot hooks. Even organizing a no-prep game like Fiasco means the effort of getting everyone in the same place at the same time (even if that’s online).
But it is absolutely a comfort. Having a regular game night with all the regular players showing up can be a lovely routine. A one shot can be a pleasant break from a humdrum routine or a chance to try something new.
