I still can’t get over The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Are there any games that can replace it? I want to try something newer, with better technology, but I hope they can be as rich and interesting as Skyrim.

    RDR2 and Cyberpunk. Although they are more linear roleplaying games than Skyrim’s experimentation.

    You need a lower dopamine threshold to make the most of those games, but they’re a treat when you learn how to do that.

      Tell me how to lower my dopamine threshold! As someone with ADHD I am absolutely addicted to dopamine and don’t know how to quit. I try to dedicate one day a week to allow myself to be bored but it is beyond difficult to maintain any sort of habit when you have ADHD. I just want a steampunk game that’s somewhat grounded in reality, set in an alternate past where the tech really works.

          Yes and they raise the threshold. Can’t take them because I get one day of functional bliss and then a week of misery after. Adderall is the worst drug I’ve ever tried for ADHD. The non-stimulants are no better because they do nothing at all.
