Could you please correct my mistakes :) this is my first time ever

A while ago I was using my pc when I came across a game that the last time I played was about 4 months ago, when I saw it I instantly said "Ooh, I haven't played this game in a long time"
and I started wondering whether play it again or not..
Should I start a new playthrough? Give it another try again? because the last time I played it it was so boring.

This is my first time writing in english sorry for all mistakes.
I just started reading books in english, and also started practicing writing because I want to improve my english skills and above all be able to communicate with other people. (my goal is understand tv shows such as "The Walking Dead") that's one of the reasons why I'm learning haha : )

It should be noted that I've been watching English videos like crazy, I've never talked to anyone or chat with anyone so I can't write that much and can't even speak as I wanted to.
I'm at point where I can understand (by hearing and reading) much more than I can speak and write.
It happens that every time I want to say or even write something, i become hesitate and I don't know what to say, words don't want to come out.
It's like I think too much about what I'm about to say, and after overthinking for a while i end up saying nothing.
That frustates me a lot, and it just happened to me like 2 seconds ago, i didn't know whether to use "way more or much more".
I have a feeling that I've heard "way more" somewhere, but I'm not completely sure if it is correct or not.

That's it.
Thanks.

A while ago, I was using my pc PC when I came across a game that the last time I played was about I last played 4 four months ago. When I saw it, I instantly said "Ooh, I haven't played this game in a long time" and I started wondering whether to play it again or not.
Should I start a new playthrough it again? Should I give it another try? again? because The last time I played it, it was so very/extremely boring.

This is my first time writing in English so I am sorry for all the mistakes.

: ) Don't try to make your own emojis here. It doesn't work!

It should be noted that I've been watching English videos like crazy, but I've never actually talked to anyone or chat with anyone in English. so I can't write that much very well and can't even speak as I wanted say what I want to.
I'm at point where I can understand (by hearing and reading) much more than I can speak and write.
It happens that Every time I want to say or even write something, I become hesitate hesitant and I don't know what to say; the words don't want to come out.
It's like I think too much about what I'm about to say, and after overthinking for a while, I end up saying nothing.
That frustrates me a lot. and It just happened to me like 2 seconds a few moments ago. I didn't know whether to use "way more" or "much more".
I have a feeling that I've heard "way more" somewhere, but I'm not completely sure if it is correct or not.

That's it. Unnecessary.
Thanks. Unnecessary. Thank us after we help you, by adding the "Thanks" icon to any response you find useful.
Welcome to the forum, @AlexWoodz. Please note my corrections and comments above. Here are three points to remember:
- Always capitalise the word "I" (first person singular pronoun).
- Always capitalise proper nouns (such as "English", "Spain", "Shakespeare")
- You're having exactly the same problem as millions of second language learners across the world. It happens to all of us!

I suggest you try and find a language exchange or an English group. Learning a language from books, TV and radio is all well and good but if you never actually speak to anyone in English, the language is all in your head and you need it in your mouth!

I'm certain you have heard "way more". It's mainly associated with American English but it's heard in British English too. However, for now, I suggest you stick with the traditional "much more", rather than using slang/colloquialisms. Concentrate on getting the language grammatically correct first, even if it sounds quite formal.

I said to myself, "Ooh, I haven't played this game. I wonder if I should play it."
