I’m embarrassed by the number of award-winning games I have unfinished on my hard drive, but every time I fire them up I think “i’m not enjoying this”.

Am I doing it wrong? Should I be mainlining my ADHD meds before trying to play?

    I definitely find games more enjoyable on my ADHD meds. Especially games with a lot of reading like discord Elysium. No shame in needing a bit of help to stay focused and engaged with some text.

    Sometimes you just need a little boost to get going and then it’s smooth sailing too.

        Fair. Yeah I say this, but I end up just playing through games and skipping half the text and hoping it wasn’t important. I’ve had to play a lot of YouTube videos to catch up on lore in my time.
