Am i moronic or slow?
Genuine question.
When i play a game I'm so fricking terrible at it, sure i've beaten hard games like hollow knight, cuphead, slay the spire, rabiribi and so on, but they took me so fricking long, like double the time listed on hltb. Plus i end up looking at guides too, so it would take even longer without them.
If you aren't convinced i found mario oddyssey hard, and it took me a full day to beat darker side of the moon. The hardest boss overall was the final boss of rabiribi that took me a week, and I havent beaten lobotomy corporation after 250 hours
Like i can't pay attention, make stupid mistakes, get hasty, get pissed off, forget to dodge and just suck overall.
Why does this happen?
I'm trying to get better, i even have tons of notes for games that i try to get better at
i wanna say average? real morons dont see their own mistakes.
moronic and slow both mean the same thing
I don't even agree with this. I've seen slow people with a high ceiling and morons with good reflexes. Being able to do arithmetic quickly isn't going to help you with a mathematical proof.
moron literally means slow
That literal meaning isn't really answering the spirit of OP's question is it? You obtuse frick
a little slow with the uptake eh anon
Gay, Luigi?
What's uptake?
nothin much hbu
you've got persistence anon, so apply that to get better.
Where did the rat go? Come back!
> they took me so fricking long, like double the time listed on hltb
This happened to me when I played "the ultimate doom". I got lost in some of the levels, and I would sometimes leave the game on while eating or taking a bathroom break.
Did you play video games as a kid? You sound like you aren't the best at them, but you'll only get better with practice.
i've been playing games my whole life my first consoles was the n64. I'm just really bad now and i don't know why.
Even games and stuff i beat with relative ease before I suck at and don't make the best decisions.
Have you had any major changes in your health? Concussions can frick up your brain like that.
I guess like 5 years ago but it's messing me up now, it could be that or i'm just getting older.
>like 5 years ago
Depending on the severity of it, concussions can cause side effects years after they happen. Like football players have major side-effects bc they get impacts over and over again. Or people in high speed car wrecks vs slow ones.
Dude you need to stop worrying about how you compare against other people. Normal ass video games are not competitions, just play them. Please.
This, I game to relax and unwind. It weirds me out how many people will continue to play games that piss them off.
Maybe just old. I used to play a lot of fighting and fps games.
VNs are now my skill level.
Only time I was good at games is when I was a sweaty tryhard teenager, games don't even get half my attention these days. I wouldn't worry about it op
if you fail at something more than once, before you start to get frustrated, you have to take a step back and re-evaluate all of the options you have prior to and during the point where you fail. often you cannot just repeat the same sequence of actions and expect to be successful. try different character abilities, consumables, pathways, whatever.
if you counsciously apply this mindset going forward, eventually it will become automatic and you will become better at vidya in general
i do that, i even make notes and stuff not to mess up on, i forget and do it again, still eventually i get it, probably through trial and error
i'd say you have ADD if you had this problem your whole life but i don't think it's possible to develop ADD over your life
Same, but I've given up on getting better and frustrated years ago. But I still want to play games all the time and easy modes aren't literally easy modes most of the time so I just use trainers and stuff like Souls or games like Hollow Knight I don't even touch because there would be no point. I've never had so much fun with games as I had now.
