So i just noticed that when i really like the game at some point i will at once play the game and watch the stream/youtube wideo of the game( usualy speedrun or aome hardcore challenge). I noticed it recently with anno 1800 but now that i think about it i did that with tales of arise, eu4 ,kings bounty,total war,hades and probably some more. So i wonder do you have similar strange habits

Avoiding main quest line advancements in order to make the game last as long as possible.

After overcoming a challenge, reverting my progress so I can try it another way, and then another.

Getting through real-life tasks as quickly as possible because I want to get back to the game.

Contemplating game characters and their motivations when I'm supposed to be trying to sleep.
