for pc games, I have a really bad habit of double tapping the caps lock for no reason at all. just turn it on then off while playing every 20 seconds or so. I dunno why I do it but I also cant stop.

I do the reload thing also, it's gotten me killed more than a few times

It is usually a good practice. Better to die reloading to an enemy you didn't see than to have a guy dead to rights and have to reload mid firefight.

The worst is when I use guns that don't reload and compulsively hit the reload key while using them.

I stop playing every 5 minutes.
It's only been recently though when I'm playing a comfy ass game.
Like I play mgs v and do the side ops, I spend 5 or 10 minutes riding there and scouting, then I take a break every few minutes to think and look at my phone.
I'm playing DMC and I take a break between each level, but that's probably because it's easy on nephilim. you have to unlock harder modes...

I have an ocd-like obligation to olay every game i touch to completion and i feel obligated tocplay just about any and all games that are significant in some way: popular, well liked, by a certain xompany/dev. I'm afraid of missing good games. Since it has become like work, i out off rhe games i really want to play and play through all the shit i dont like or am less interested first. Except theres a lot of video games. So here i am spending my entire life playing shitty and/or uninteresting to me games with the idea that i'll play the games i like last with the ability to treasure them. Playing them before that makes it seem like work

I get pretty neurotic over saving.

>save again right after I saved just in case
>>
>>342396613
I reload to see every dialogue option. Often I do this more than once to better compare them. And then I reload a final time and go through the whole thing again the way I like it best.

I suppose this would even make some sense if I only did it where some choices have some kind of consequence, good or bad. But nope, I do it even if it's just general list of infodump, but I feel the order in which I went through it just wasn't quite right. Or I wasn't standing in the right place. Or an enemy appeared and aggro'd the NPC, who then initiated dialogue right after it and acts like everything is perfectly fine. It just triggers my autism.

1. From Solid Snake/Big Boss I copied the way they tend to repeat after people in a questioning manner. You know... how Snake asks "Metal Gear?" after someone has just said something about Metal Gear.

2. Assassin's Creed has taught me to give people a light push while navigating through a crowd. I also walk with my face facing down and my body a bit inclined forward when I wear a hood.

3. When I'm not feeling well, or (rarely happens) I've just been wounded, I sometimes hold a hand against my stomach while walking, like Leon from RE4.

4. In online games, I sometimes act like a unit from and RTS game and say something like "armed and ready" in the mic when I enter the game.

5. When I was in school, I used to run like Sonic with my hands behind my back.

There's others too, but these are the ones I've noticed more.

On that note, in RTS campaigns, I just need to completely uncover the map, sometimes going as far as getting rid of resources that prevent me from uncovering a few pixels and researching technologies that improve my units' and buildings' line of sight, which can be a little slow.

I have a kind of ocd. Whenever I play a game, I have to do it in the "correct" way. The room has to be quiet, screen/kb and mouse have to be completely clean, I have to be completely confortable (not hungry, thirsty, horny, or sleepy), and if possible nobody has to be around (I wait till my family goes out/to sleep). Apart from that, I have to be feel completely inmersed in the game and do only do "realistic things" (I mostly play rpgs). For example, I don't use meta gaming knowledge, so every time I start a new game, I pretend I don't know anything about the world I'm about to enter to (even if I know crucial things beforehand). I have to talk to every npc, buy every item, explore every chunk of the map, etc. If I die, it's game over. This was mostly due to thinking that when I play a game, it'd be the only time I'd experience it, so everything should be perfect and I should use the game's full potential. I don't know how many times I had to restart games because I thought I wasn't playing it "right". However, I've been working on this problem. I say to myself that I'm just "testing" the game, and that some day I'll play it for real.

Does someone have the same problem? It's a bit annoying to be honest.

Try to be laid back or not take things too serious. Remember that DPSing as healer is acceptable/good (and a must on later/endgame content). Do not forget to clear that novice's thing once you hit Lv15 for free items.
Yes, sometimes people swear, and you can be suspended for Nhours for being an asshole (as long as people report you). There are many kind of retard in that game.
Usually bad DPSs not moving away from AoE indicators and blaming you for not healing them, then running out of mana because they kept getting hit. Bad tanks getting hit hard or not holding aggro everywhere, (on my experience) specially paladins, even worse if they are male cats. I can't forget pic-related, his gear was too low, I had hard times healing our party because he was not able to hold aggro.

And I'll grunt the Hollow Male Grunt from Dark Souls when I get hit, if I'm playing Dark Souls.
