Someone asked whether I ever played Doom. No, not really. I told that I've never liked first person shooters and then it hit me. I never liked them as there's too much going on. In fact, I've never been a big fan of any types of shooters, the only exception being Cannon Fodder. Now, with the new-found autistic perspective, it makes perfect sense. Sensory overdrive all the time equals no fun. How about my fellow autistics, any fans of shooters?

@LehtoriTuomo @actuallyautistic I played Doom back then because it was technically impressive, but I used cheat codes a lot.

I can do adventure games with a shooter component (Rockstar games, Fallout, Far Cry, etc), but I need peaceful exploration between shootouts. There are a couple DLCs for Far Cry where you are perpetually on the move and have no time to breathe, and I hate them with passion though I love the base game.

The worst are Battle Royale games : shooters AND competitive. Irk.
