    I refuse to play games that I can’t quit within 2 minutes of starting it. Persona series is one of those that I refuse to play. My time is way to valuable to commit an hour or more to 1 activity.

      I still haven’t played so many games because of opening cinematics and overly long and boring tutorials for this reason. It sucks because I can get super into a game if I just get over that. Like Baldur’s Gate 3 was a chore to get into, but I knew I would absolutely love it and now I think it’s probably the best game ever.

      So do you just play on Xbox where you can jump between titles and have it save your game state?

      So no games with words at all I would assume? Shit even a round of Tetris is longer than 2 minutes.

      I think you’ll miss out on a lot of great games thinking that way! Sometimes needing to commit time into a game is where a lot of the value comes from in its experience, and persona is one of those series.

        I get that, however before getting on meds I had no problem playing RuneScape for hours straight with YouTube on the side. No idea why I was fine with literally running in circles for 6 hours straight but making eye contact for 2 minutes was painful.
