So think I’m an addict. I play the game to the point of passing out. It happened this morning around 7 or 8 am. I don’t remember exactly what time as I was out of it. Well in passing out I woke up like an hour or less later at my spawn point, naked. Of course I freaked out because I just lost my silent legion armor, legendary items (weapon, shield, and bow), my star metal tools and some other stuff. To make matters worse I checked the log and my lootbag decayed 2 minutes prior to me opening my eyes. Being determined as i am i stayed awake to remake my lost items and managed to get my legendary shield back from a chest.
In hindsight I realized I may have a problem. However I do believe the decay timer on lootbags could be increased.
On a side note when thralls die sometimes its hard to locate where they died (i.e. volcano). Maybe add a marker for lootbags or your thrall upon death?
Take note I have gotten sleep now but this game is addictive.
It’s hard. I know. At least it doesn’t come to your dreams, right? Coz that’s when the mess is bad. Not intolerable or perilous, but it can mess your wiring up more and pretty easily; so you need a firm grip and you gotta take some vacation. Relax for couple days to a week. I’d advice to watch some movies or something similar that isn’t in your hands to navigate or narrate (the opposite of playing a game) to alleviate the burden. Game isn’t going anywhere, you can always build it all up again, get all the items back and so on. Be cool and hope your good.
Fable, i appreciate your kind words. I tend to watch a lot of Netflix as is. Usually part of my going to bed routine is to put on criminal minds. Unfortunately I get all into the shows i watch as well and every night turns into a binge when i do that. In all honesty I’m pretty sure I suffer from some sleep disorder. I’ve tried turning everything off and going to sleep but that just gets my mind racing. Sometimes i find going on youtube and putting on one of those soothing bedtime videos, thats 8+ hours long, helps me some. I think also i may be slightly OCD though never tested for it. I dont like leaving things unfinished…regardless if its putting items in storage, completing a build, or even life things as clearing the dinner plate. I thought about sleeping pills but really dont like that idea. When i do sleep it ranges anywhere from 1 hour to 12 hours…depending if something wakes me or my brain just does what it wants.
On a side note along with playing video games at one point I was watching over 20+ tv series and movies.
Feels like I’m talking to myself. That’s how familiar your reply felt. I don’t think I can help beyond this (face to face would be different), but what helped me is that I got to talk to a professional. We threw the ball back and forth and it really did help me draw a roadmap.
Do you have by any chance quite long moments where you find yourself talking to yourself and following patterns of thought, from one thing to another? Patterns that connect to even the most oddly detailed contexts and so forth?
I’ve always talked to myself. Usually not out loud but my conscious is always debating with itself.
Edit: ok sometimes out loud dont judge me
Just another day in my head is how i see it. I have been trying to stream more…dont really get any viewers but that’s all good. Its odd to me being the only one talking and just reading responses. Guess its more odd arguing in my head with myself when i think about it.
I find it better to talk out loud because thoughts can be too fast sometimes to grasp. When spoken out loud, we obtain a window of opportunity to ponder thoroughly what’s been said in the form of slowing down thoughts thorough speech. Some write their thoughts down and that works too, has its merits as well.
