My ND NT husband will just like, play a game every once in a while when he feels like it. He’ll just pick it up every so often, maybe play a few days in a week, and then leave it be again for a while to come back to later.

Meanwhile I will get into a game and spend every waking hour playing it. My sleep, diet, work, hygiene, all suffer to varying degrees. I give myself wrist pain and thumb calluses. I will not rest until I 100% it. And if I can’t, I’ll stop and most likely never pick it up again.

Anyway, anyone else playing Silksong?

    and sometimes I get so deep into a game that I stop playing shortly before the end because I don’t want it to end

    I stop at about ~80% completion on my favorite games for this reason EXACTLY. Like my logic brain says “finish” and my ADHD/attachment refuses outright.
