Exactly, once I get to choose my next city of play, the city map is the next thing to study for me because it gives me an insight of what I would meet up in the game.

That's where I failed to understand, but now I've learned the extra feature added by the quest markers to map out where to go and position in the game to avoid scathing issues like I experienced in the past.

Boblee Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 As long as I can be able to trace back my surrounding to the map that I am exploring, I would never get lost because everything is there for me to see through the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Depending on how vast the video games map is goes a very long way in determining if it's something that I would get lost in when exploring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I don't lose track of my surroundings, but I'll say I do lose track of time sometimes. There are days where I'd start gaming in the morning hours, and then be gaming until like 6pm. That's what I'd say, losing track of time over losing track of my surroundings.

Justin11 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Yes, no matter how I play games in a day, even if it's spending up to 15 hours of my day playing, I can't get confused with my surroundings just that my time is burnt out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the video game offers more than what you bargained for, there is no way you wouldn't get lost in time playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof elohstar Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 To me it depends. Most times am aware of my surroundings but few times I wouldn't even hear my phone rings. I remembered I was carried away while playing games and someone was screaming my name and I didn't hear a thing. It happens once in a while.

Empire Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Depends on the game and what I'm doing, mostly Yes and no. I always keep my eyes on the time, meaning playing and look at the time knowing how ong I got before I have to get of my system. While streaming you tend to not and I mean NOT loose track on your surroundings as you are gaming and trying your hardest to talk to people and by looking at other screens and also looking and ealing with bots in your channel.

I've gamed for hours into the night, not realizing how long I had been playing. Some nights I would game until like 2-3 am and I completely lose track of time. It could feel like an hour of gaming, but I'd be gaming for hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, that was my first experience when I played Ghosts of Tsushima. I never knew it was deep in the night around 3am and I was still playing.

It actually depends on what I'm streaming. If it's something that's quite thrilling, I might be lost in it for a while before getting my bearings.
