Things you ALWAYS do in new games?

1. Curse at the day 1 patch, wait for it to download and install (ie play/watch something else)
2. Curse at the loading times and unskippable splash screens.
3. Find the settings/options, Curse at the lack of smooth turning / free movement if missing (VR)
4. Furiously tap the x button during the unskippable intro sequence.
5. Die, better to find out first what the death penalty is.

You seem to do quite a bit of cursing while gaming lol, although I do sympathise with point four since it's something I used to do, even though I knew it did no help whatsoever!

As for the fifth point... do you purposefully die, or are you just bad at games and die anyway? ;) 

I have kids so I have to save it up until I'm gaming by myself at night, same as holding in your farts until the company leaves :)

I purposefully die to test the respawn system, see how careless I can be for the rest of the game. Dying by itself is not a problem, if it comes with a lengthy reload screen then I start playing more carefully.

I also always go the opposite way first than where the game is pointing me to go, to check how much free will is allowed. My gaming style most resembles a  beta tester.
