I found Red Dead Redemption 2 a horribly boring slog of a game all on rail with illusion of freedom, same shit with GTA5 - haven't finished either of them, probably half way at most.

I often wear my official Xbox headset to bed

Rockstar mission design, game feel and everything in between that isn't gorgeous window dressing is bafflingly shit to me. Most games I can say hey, not my shit but I get it. RDR2 is so bad at everything but its world that I really can't wrap my head around the appeal other than virtual sightseeing and random fucking around. I really tried too but it frustrated me to no end.

I've never been a GTA guy for the same reasons.

I'm currently undervolting a GTX 1660 Ti 6GB on an old Acer i5-9400 prebuilt with a 300W PSU using a dual-SATA to 8-pin adapter.

Because I'm a madman who likes to live on the edge. And a console gamer primarily. Not planning on upgrading until 2030.

I was still on my 980ti build until a year ago. Stay strong!

I didn't know I could upgrade in metal gear revengeance until the final jet stream sam fight.

I used to steal demo disks from the Official Xbox Magazine at Media Play. I rationalized my behavior by thinking the companies wanted me to try the games and no kid was going to buy a diskless magazine.

That magazine was also 6 or 7 dollar Xbox propaganda so my thievery was just.

Forced myself to finish many games, played cod multiplayer regularly, switched console affiliation twice during the console war (represented 360 and switched to PS3).

I don't know if there is a term for it but let's say I'll call it "passive" gaming. I have an ultra wide screen where I just select the most grindy or long paced games (e.g Lords of shadow) one one window and watching YouTube on the other pausing only for reading documents or watching the cutscenes. That way I slowly complete my library while consuming YouTube simultaneously.

A girl I knew in college beat Resident Evil 4 on the GameCube without ever zooming in with the scoped rifle because she didn't know you could zoom in.

For me, I deeply hate games with timers in them. Dead Rising and Majora's Mask are the two biggest culprits here.
Also I've never played a GTA game outside of an hour of GTA 3 at a friend's house and it seemed like shock value jock slop.
I've never beaten the original Super Mario Brothers.
I have a deep infatuation with the Sega Saturn despite never owning one, and now I can't rationalize spending current aftermarket prices for one and games.
My go-to game to play when I'm high (doesn't happen often) is Wild ARMs. I have no idea why but it's awesome.

I play games on easy if it's not something I care about a whole lot so I can finish it sooner and get back to my MMO.
