Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

For me it was a time issue. If I was a teenager with time to kill, I’d sink endless hours into it. But regularly picking it up and putting it down is kind of disruptive to the flow of the game in my opinion. It’s not something I feel you can play for 30 minutes or even an hour and get much out of.
Overall incredible game though, that I highly recommend.
I guess this is part of it. Maybe I felt bad about neglecting other things in life to play the game. Some fights take 30+ minutes.
For me it's this plus the level of focus I feel like I need to not get my shit kicked in.
Maybe I'm just bad, but there's a good number of encounters where a few bad moves can put you in a slow spiral to defeat. Plus there's just a lot to consider at any given moment, it's a deep combat system.
When my only time to play is after my kid is down for the night, a lot of the time I'm looking to relax and not think super hard.
