I'm wondering if anyone out there plays games the same way I do. Most people approach the hobby normally like play a few games on rotation with friends or to pass the time. What I do is play hundreds of games to completion then for some reason memorise each and every one, learn about all the differences between the ports, the game engine tech it runs on, all the bugs and speed running strats and index it in my head for instant recall.
Why I'm like this I do not know, something to do with making soul reaver my personality when I was a kid which was funny cos nobody knew wtf i was talking about cos other kids were playing gta and lego games.
Any other oddballs like me?
I like the Kirby and Mega Man franchises and can whip up lots of trivia about each at a moment's notice. Two years ago, the Mega Man Star Force series and its main character Geo's progression out of loneliness and anxiety struck a lot of emotional chords with me on a deeply personal level. As a result, that series has practically become my identity as it sits very close to the heart. Geo unironically is a role model for me.
