I know i'll like [game] I really want to like [game] it's really popular, for reasons I agree with, but—
proceeds to concoct 10,000 reasons that boil down to my ADHD is such that playing this game is often frustrating
there's a problem I have where, and I know how this sounds, I'm able to intuit a lot of mechanics and stuff in videogames. Most of the time, i have no problem parsing what the game's expecting of me and how I can make things work
Which means that when i don't get something it's the most infuriating thing on the planet, and I'll bang my head against something that is by all accounts very simple and it will often sour the game for me. Similarly, my memory is usually very vivid, which means that any time I forget something (which despite my best attempts is often) I get really fucking mad lmfao.
(this and the previous chost are about breath of the wild, for the record. I got gifted kid syndrome where I have a higher basic threshold but anything past that is that much more paralyzing)
I realize this sounds like a weird kind of flex in a way, but it honestly isn't. I wish, frankly, I was less good at intuiting things just so I was more on the same page as everybody else seems to be. Maybe then I wouldn't feel like an idiot for missing basic details I didn't need until much later.
