I've never played anything involving cards before this game, but at some point it just clicked for me, and the fights became fantastic. Each attack/action is always successful, unlike X-com, and I loved calculating every single move.
The most divisive part of the game seems to be the abbey - I really enjoyed it, meeting with others, discovering new map parts, secrets, story, etc, but it is completely different from the fighting part, and I understand how for some it might be tiresome. -

no_dog Link ParentOh wow, it's really that big of a deal? Paying a monthly subscription to appear blue sounds bothersome, I guess I'm lucky no one made a deal out of it when I changed phonesOh wow, it's really that big of a deal?

The biggest thing for me though, was buying consoles. A couple of years ago I've stopped playing PC games almost entirely for a long time, because after finishing work and closing my laptop, I didn't want to spend any more time on a computer, it was tiresome. Then, after buying a console, it became fun again, as I could leisurely sit down on a couch, and nothing else was bothering me in the background, or reminding me of work.
And finally, after getting a Steam Deck, I could play my PC games library again as it's easy to treat it fully as a console too

I've made his half sour pickles with chillis a couple of times, and they're fantastic.
Though his channel is a bit on the fun side -

Then I noticed who the main series writer was, and realized that there probably won't be any explanation for the events, so it was time to focus more on the characters, because that's what they're great at. I'm glad about that, the relationships, and character's self-problems in the series were fantastic.
I should rewatch it -

All the ADHD hindrances are in my life again, but now I'm able to recognize and handle them mostly.

But the absolute worst thing about ADHD to me is the constant fear at the back of my head - always feeling like something is not right, I forgot important things etc. It mostly went away when I started taking medication for ADHD, but I had to stop the meds for a while and it came back. Can't even explain how great it was, finally being able to just relax.

I can't imagine what it would look like if they were bigger than me. I don't even want to think about the spiders...
It takes a while - you have to finish endings A and B before the game gets really interesting. I was close to giving up too, but I'm really glad I finished it. The second half of the game was amazing to me
