This is how I feel too. I keep bouncing off of them, but I really want to like them.

I’m guessing it’s the top down camera that’s the issue with lack of immersion.

The only CRPG I didn’t bounce off of was Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. Not 100% sure why that one clicked, but it might be the writing.

I thought I was a vernal pool, but y’all, I might be a playa…

Wait, tyromancy is real?! I thought CDPR were joking when they made an entire quest line out of it in the Witcher 3. I got a nice sword called the Emmentaler out of it and everything. Huh. TIL indeed. Thanks, OP. I never thought to Google it.

I sometimes finish the sentence for them to speed things along. It’s a bad habit of mine and I try not to be rude about it. Hopefully it just comes across as understanding and supportive rather than usurping the conversation.

Ghost of Tsushima is one of my comfort games, but I hate replaying the end of act 2 because of the emotional toll.

In Devil May Cry 3, the Nevan boss fight and backtracking through the rearranged tower after it’s activated are just tedious.

Another user said the Fade section of Dragon Age: Origins, but I’ll go with the Deep Roads. Everything you learn in that section is fascinating, but man, I just want to see the sky again and you’re down there for a while.

No pressure (ha!) of course.

The beginning of COVID was a real eye opener for me. I was checking on work my friends and family and work colleagues to make sure they were okay and eventually realized that no one reciprocated. No one cared enough to reach out. I was in tears after a call with my own mom where she asked how my boyfriend was doing twice but she never asked about me.

Long story short, but I’ve cut a lot of ties and am trying to focus on myself for a bit. Really fucking lonely, but I think I prefer this to believing I have people who care about me when they actually don’t. The truth hurts, but it’s been really freeing too. Now I just need to find my people, which is really hard now because I don’t go out due to social anhedonia. Yay…

As someone who has one of the non electric bidets installed and was afraid of having a puckered asshole the first time I used it, it’s not that cold. And it’s so worth it. I can’t go back and will have a bidet everywhere I live in the future.
