Forums - Gaming - Bad gaming habits

Whenever I'm playing a game that requires you to save manually, I always save twice before I quit.  I know it's silly but I just can't help it.  I always feel I have to save twice just on the off chance the first save didn't take.  It's a bad gaming habit.

Do you have any bad gaming habits like that?  Do you reset the game when you're losing?  Perhaps you reload your weapon constantly when it's unnecessary?  Do tell!

Reload after one shot even though I have 100+ bullets left.

Its even worse in Overwatch where there are characters who have unlimited ammo and requires no reloading but I still try to reload.

I used to wrap up my corded controllers. A few got shortages in the cables as a result.



Going to recover at an INN after one battle from a wild encounter in an RPG. Why do I have a habit of doing this? Because I like to save on magic power and things. Yes I do sound cheap.

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true. 2nd UPDATE: I have no Switch 2. I am now behind

I have a problem with saving. Sometimes I save a lot just in case and sometimes I don't save because I get to cocky.

Save up all the special powers/materials/gold as if there is some kinda prize for having the most at the end. As a result, never get the enjoy all the special attacks etc, yet I'm always prepared :/

Regenerating mana is a blessing for me, instead of ending the game with 500 mana potions. Infinite ammo please, I ended Fallout 4 ready to open up a wall mart size store for special guns and ammo. Never used the special ammo or heavy toys, just in case....



I save constantly, if possible

Save before entering a city/dungeon, save after a cutscene, save after boss battle, etc.

Not that bad though, since it does help out once in a while

Picking up every heart or rupee I come across in a Zelda game, even when maxed out.

Reload after one shot.

Hoarding in RPGs just in case I MIGHT need something...never know when a fork will come in handy.

Ha. I have done the same thing. More in the past, but it still happens. Paranoia mixed with some of my OCD. I'm trying to think of something else, but can't atm.

I have an issue with saving constantly. Do one action: save. Do a battle: save. Talk to characters: Save. I probably don't need to save that much, but I just can't help it.
