In real life you can be pretty sure it hasn't been set up like a puzzle where there is definitely an exit before you run out of air.

See now, this is an excellent point

And yet we still try to hold our breath as long as the character to see if we can...

jacuzzitubbs.bsky.social•73 days ago

Every time I catch myself doing that!

My real life progress would stop the second I get to one of those "squeeze through tight corridor to load next area" sections. That ain't happening.

I would never grind experience by constantly killing the same thing over and over again in real life.

Also all the murder, probably?

I duuuuunno, pretty sure peeps would find a way to justify it in todays world 🤷‍♂️

Yeah this has gotta me number one

Naw, dog. Not even in a vidjo game.
Claustrophobia is REAL.

Crawling/going through a sewer is pretty high up there...
And no painkiller or dealing with things like broken bones, burns, gunshots, etc.

One of the old Star wars games on N64 has you swimming underwater through sewage, and there are these tentacle hairy things that roar and chase you when you can't see shit.

Legit gave me nightmares for years.

Just simply running through a creek or jumping out of a boat fully clothed to walk up the rest of the beach? No thank you

I certainly don't enjoy doing it in Skyrim, it's one of those things where I let out a resigned sigh like "yeah, I guess it's the way forward..."

archbladecahouse.bsky.social•73 days ago

Strongly agree. Just thinking about that makes me anxious.

orlandu.bsky.social•73 days ago

easy number 1 for me, unless obviously maximum bad stuff like "get set on fire" is also on there

I could see myself eating mushrooms at some point; I just hope I don't end up smashing my head into bricks.
