I got so used to quickly leaving in minecraft from a server when falling or in lava to get the immunity frames, when climbing a mountain, i imagined leaving life if i fell

Well
You’re not wrong

My plan was to leave right before hitting the ground, not after, so i had overestimated the speed

the witness shifts reality in a way that is difficult to describe, but bleeds into the real world. If you've never played it and enjoy learning, this is a serious gem.

Found my original review:

"This game will bend your perception of the world. It is one of those rare games that define the genre. Everything you need to know to get through this game is always right in front of you, but nothing is ever explained. Every puzzle has rules, rules that you slowly have to figure out. And as you play more, you'll look at things differently. It is amazing how much is hidden on this fantasticly crafted island. True art. Also a timeless game, pick this up at any point in your gaming career. It took me 100 hours to be able to say that I've seen everything."

GTA. I was driving down the road and had the urge/intrusive thought to side swipe a motorcycle because hitting them is just what you do in the game.

I noted how it was weird the first time, then it occured again a week later. That was the last day I played GTA even though I enjoyed the game.

I've never had that thought, but I often think about driving over a curb. I play a lot of racing games too

I once messed up something I was writing by hand and instinctually wanted to press ctrl+z

I get the Ctrl+z urge too! If only...

Scraped my car tire rim on a curb the other day and mashing Ctrl + Z in my brain for minutes afterwards :(

The ascend power from Tears of the Kingdom. Not so much in my literal real life, but any time someone in a show/movie is being chased or is trapped somewhere or even just stuck in an awkward situation I expect them to just fly through the ceiling and leave all their pursuers with question marks over their heads.

Skyrim. I’m a Skyrim hoarder, grabbing every flower I run by. While driving to work I remember thinking, I need to get those. Thank goodness I remembered not to do that in real life.

Factorio. I saw transport belts in my dreams.

Someone commented on my post about Devil World that what I experienced was Tetris effect. When I was scrolling vertically on my phone I would occasionally experience sideways scrolling similar to the game mechanic even though there certainly wasn't any sideways scrolling happening.

Another one was when I was playing Portal. Traveling via portals became my usual method to move around in every dream I had those days.

Played so much Minecraft, the trees outside looked all blocky when I was tired one time.

Also, after the first time I did VR, I was outside and my brain told me to stop walking every couple of steps because I thought I was going to walk into a wall.

During the pandemic I did essentially nothing but play Arma 3 like it was my job. 4k hours in like 2 years.

I went out for a walk towards the end and went to grab for binoculars I didn't have...

Best/worst game I've ever played for so many reasons.

Haha after an all night session back when I was in high school I did the very same upon hearing a tractor in a field nearby.

In college I was playing a lot of Crackdown. At a certain point I remember instinctively knowing which level of a dorm tower I could jump to, grab onto a window, and then how many more jumps it would take to reach the top.

Similarly, more recently, I was playing Resident Evil 4 on the Oculus. After a good two hour session when I took the headset off I found myself trying to move around my house by using my thumb to jump to a new spot.

Played a lot of rainbow six siege, where you have to shoot those 360° security cameras when you are attacking. So, now I'm trained to spot those on instinct.

I really liked action racing games like NFS and Burnout right around the time I turned 16 and got my driver's license. I didn't do anything too crazy. But, since I had been grinding those games, my confidence on the streets of my suburban town in my dinky 2000 Nissan Altima significantly increased.

The Witness. Started seeing puzzles in real life and having the urge to drag my finger across them

Today ,

On my way home from Zombieland i had to keep reminding myself, "pedestrians are not zombies. Don't hit them."
