  • You are not alone. I do have a lower threshold that is above 8 bit, but I want enough of a difference from real life that I don’t constantly think I’m watching a real person through the eyes of a drone.

    I think there are possibilities for games that are 8bit, depending on what the game style is. Some simple games and side scrollers wouldn’t need to be much higher that that.

    Edit: but anything that has the depth as part of the gameplay should have at least PS2 level graphics. In driving games, first person shooters, open world games need that clarity to see where I’m going and what I can explore over there



  • The tricky thing I’ve noticed in myself is, feeling like a bother or a burden makes me a bother or a burden. Going in feeling like they will be bothered makes me act in awkward ways that is a bother to others. Trying to enter a conversation despite feeling like I’m going to be a burden is similar, I’m just relying on their charity or hoping they don’t notice that I’m a burden. Super awkward.

    Entering a conversation believing they want to talk but also willing to leave if the vibes aren’t right seems to be the best balance for me.
