It's like playing Fallout or something, but every single skill check is always 1 point higher than you have in that skill. Doesn't matter if you spend the whole game minmaxing, or the reverse (trying to keep yourself balanced and good at most things); you're always just barely underqualified for anything and no matter what shapes you contort yourself into, it's never quite the right one
Another comparison would be that spongebob episode where he keeps missing the bus no matter what he does, to the point where it's clear that the laws of physics themselves are optional as long as he's unable to succeed
It's midnight and I have a stomachache. Post quality will continue to deteriorate
And every time you fail the skill check the box comes up and tells me I suck and aren't good enough or actually worth anything.
at least that's how it used to be for me, I've been very at peace with myself since the start of this year. Viewing the world and myself in it from a marxist or even just leftist perspective really primed me for a lot of growth. Golly I'm constantly glad I found this place
hey hope your tummy feels better soon comrade <3
For me, it feels like everyone expects the same of me as anyone else but then additionally also looks down on me because my autism. And if we are comparing autism to gaming, I feel it's more like knowing how to solve a level but not knowing what the controls are.
I don't have autism but in my fail life I feel like I know how to solve a level but don't have the stamina to do it. Super frustrating
I can quite easily pass as neurotypical, but I still have issues, and I have always hated being reminded that I have it. I realised recently that the reason why I hate being reminded is not because I actually have it, but because I don't like being seen as an other by the rest of society like most autistic people are.
Same, or like there was a tutorial level that everyone else got to play but my copy of the game didn't have it so I've had to reverse-engineer the instructions and the controls but I definitely got some wrong
seems more like disco elysium. sure you can pass a skill check, but you probably wont, even if you min maxed the whole game just to pass that one check. and then even if you do pass the check, well.. yay, you got your tie off the ceiling fan without dying this time.
anyways, ties are stupid, thats the moral of the story.
