I thought real gamers just play the same dozen games over and over for 30 years ๐คท
Probably yes. But maybe not those with ADHD ๐ I game like 6hrs a day for >30yrs now, but the times of "one game a month, if even" are long gone for me. I got tens of thousands of games, of which I haven't played 70% yet.
Admittedly, many I just bought on a whim and will probably never ever touch at all. Some for support, some for curiosity, some for discount.
My ADHD keeps buying new games. My autism keeps playing the old ones. Such is my curse ๐คฃ
Ha! Been there, doing that..I mostly end up playing the same oldies again and again. I remember map layouts from 2 decades ago, but forget he story from yesterday. Actually kinda helpful when re-playing ๐
