I might genuinely be autistic and I'm not even joking… though the thing is, a part of me feels perfectly fine with it. I mean, does anyone else here do this? I've never finished a single Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Pokémon… and that's just for the major Nintendo IPs, if I go for other major ones, I've never finished a single Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Metal Gear, Elder Scrolls, Mega Man, Castlevania… and then there are also so many licensed IPs that are successful in video games aswell, I haven't played many in the last few years either… and whenever I try, I just drop it after a while, they're not much fun to me. I essentially have these dozen franchises I grew up playing and loving so much, and nowadays I either replay the ones I grew up with, or go after new installments from those very franchises that I hadn't really played before, over and over again…

>Is this a sign of undiagnosed autism or ADHD?
>Have you ever gone though something similar?
I've attempted to get started on some of these major franchises before, those lists with the so called top video games of all time, the ones you have to play, the ones no one in this hobby should miss out on at all… and yet I never get truly immersed in it and often drop it in favor of playing yet another installment from a favorite franchise of mine… is it because I didn't grow up with them? I suppose so, perhaps if I did then they'd be among these franchises I always go back to, though there's no way to be sure… still, it's cozy in a way, the familiarity, and discovering a new favorite among an old franchise you know and love, though at times it feels like I'm genuinely missing out, at least from what is written everywhere online, but whenever I try to break away and try these interesting IPs people acclaim, it just doesn't do it for me, a part of me wishes it did… but that's fine.

Disregard armchair thinkers, it's 100% ADHD, I have the exact same behavior. I learned to suck it up, accepting I'll be boo'd out by my bad taste and only play extremely addictive games. League of Legends mainly. A few recommendations from me which I have greatly enjoyed:
>LoL
>Hentai games (constant dopamine reward from edging and can keep you hooked for hours)
>Epic Battle Fantasy 5 (planning to 100% on hardest difficulty, like 100hrs of playtime, very fun RPG)
>modded Skyrim
>specifically the minecraft tech mod pack Regroth for 1.7.10
>Balatro
>Bannerlords
>Sifu
>autism simulators Factorio and Satisfactory

Keywords here to look for in a potential game: competitive, high-octane, arcade-y, rougelite, power fantasy, gameplay refrain, tactile.

Also learn to drink a lot of coffee. Let me know if you have any other questions regarding how to manage it. Also if you have any game that passed the threshold for you.

i remember at least from the start of the 3d era one of the first games i completed was resident evil 3. There might have been games before but completing Re3 triggered something in me, that made me feel like i could complete any game, after that i completed a huge list of games.

I wish they'd make something like Shandalar with the Magic Arena engine… Yu-Gi-Oh! has a dozen of RPGs while Magic pretty much got a single attempt at it, which was great, and then never again, it's a bummer.

Switch 2 Anonymage 04/03/25 (Thu) 04:47:36 No.62316 [Reply]

So how do you guys feel about the Switch 2 and the supposed $90 physical games? I really only get Nintendo systems for mainline Pokemon games, so I'll probably just save a little each month and by the time the new Pokemon game gets announced I should have enough for one.

I couldn't care less because I emulate 99% of the time nowadays, there are enough retro video games to last me a life time and I can have full console libraries on a small SD card due to how small file sizes used to be compared to now. I'm at least grateful for Nintendo for coming up with the genius concept of a console/handheld hybrid, though that's easy enough to replicate without me getting a Switch 2, if all I want to do is emulate, with a hacked Switch, or something like a tablet with HDMI out, and a telescopic controller attachment for when I want to play on it like a handheld.

It's a comfortable setup, don't even need a tablet, even a smartphone with HDMI output works.

Vintage Story Anonymage 12/26/24 (Thu) 22:08:55 No.62083 [Reply]

Are there any wizards that play this game? If there are any, what servers do you play on(if you play multiplayer)
For those that don't know, Vintage Story is basically TerraFirmaCraft turned into it's own standalone game. It's fun but it's still in beta and not going to be finished anytime soon.

Am I the only one that's too paranoid to ever play video games in public? When I'm out in public I'm always hyper aware of my surroundings and constantly sizing up any threats. I don't even look at my phone unless it's to check the time. Is that weird?

Anonymage 04/19/25 (Sat) 06:21:32 No.62494

>>62492
Depends on the actual threat level of your area.
Some places are dangerous enough to warrant such high alertness, however for a lot of places such high alertness is unnecessary and a pathological result of a unwell mind.

I don't know you or where you live (nor do I want to) so I can't say if your behavior and outlook is reasonable or not.

Wrath of Earth.

FPS adventure-shooter that unlike Doom you actually have to use your brain to get through.

Played it back in my golden days on a half-broken DOS laptop.

Loved it 'cuz you had to inventory manage across multiple levels, adapt your combat strategy as enemies became radar invisible, and the environment was creepy.

Grab DOSBOX and give it a try.

Wendy: Every Witch Way on GBC.

It's a video game based on a TV show that was canned before ever coming out, based on a Casper sidecharacter… and yet it's a superb puzzle platformer with antigravity mechanics that are quite fun. I've played it this month for the 1st time and couldn't get enough of it, beat it both on Normal and Hard, and also the world that's exclusive to when you play it on a GBA, for some reason. It's a simple and easy platformer, but that's not braindead, it both looks and sounds great, and giving you passwords between all levels makes it easy to pick up and play, especially since the passwords are quite short. I can't recommend it enough honestly.

Not him but I enjoyed those games as a kid largely just because it was "platforming, but you can fly"… I was a sucker for that. There's a flying power up in mario galaxy that I loved even though you barely get to use it. I guess if you can just fly everywhere it defeats the purpose of platforming but eh it's fun.

I love soccer/football video games, but then again I'm Brazilian so of course I do. I'm a big fan of Konami's Winning Eleven, like most football/soccer fans, but I do love a lot of other ones too, especially older titles, like TECMO World Cup Soccer on NES, I'm replaying it now and it's still excellent, despite it getting ridiculously difficult and unforgiving near the final stages of the cup too.
