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?

impressive memory honestly!

i havent yet played any halo games lol, been meaning to get a used xbox, then MCC came out and i lost interest, then Halo Refined made waves and then i forgor abt it ๐Ÿ’€

i tend to subconsiously memorize the most random of trivia about videogames, even games that i dont like, i dont even think about it most of the time and then someone randomly asks me and i write a light novel
