Does anyone else suffer from 'Settings OCD'? I spend more time calibrating than playing games and it's ruining my experience. How to get rid of perfectionism in games?
Hi everyone. I’ve realized I have a problem that’s killing my love for gaming. Instead of immersing myself in the story or gameplay, I’m constantly obsessing over the picture quality. I can’t stop opening the menu to tweak brightness, HDR, or contrast. I feel like the image is never "perfect" enough, and it feels more like a chore than a hobby. If after completing the game I realize that the settings were incorrect, then my brain doesn’t count the game completion and considers it ruined. Has anyone else dealt with this "Settings OCD"? What mental tricks or rules do you use to just "set it and forget it"? I want to focus on the game, not the pixels.
