Lonely

So i am not sure what to do. My boyfriend and i have different sleep schedules so he is up before me and asleep before me. Then when he gets out of work all he does is play video games in the other room so i am just left to sit by myself all night(with the exception of my dog). When I make dinner he will come out and sometimes stay or go back to his game, or he will eat while he plays. I just feel so lonely and like we are just roomates sometimes. I want him to want to spend time with me and not seem needy. I also don't want him to think that i wont let him play his games because i know how much he loves it. I need to feel important and im not sure how to ask for that.
