When I got hooked on Morrowind in middle school it occurred to me to quicksave before a test at school.

What’s yours?

    I get this all the time because I tend to binge games over weekends when I got nothing else going on. I’ll give two examples that I remember the most.

    One of the most prolific is Factorio. Seeing conveyor belts everywhere I go. Whether I’m awake or about to fall asleep I just constantly see conveyor belts as I solve non existent problems with the efficiency of said conveyor belts.

    The weirdest was after Outer Wilds. I binged it for about 12 hours straight one day. You spend a lot of time orbiting around planets and landing on them. After I was done I was walking around my apartment and felt like I was “orbiting” a spaceship around my apartment. It felt super weird to walk. Felt like the floor was the surface of a planet and my head was a spaceship flying miles above it trying to land.

      The Factorio one reminded me of trying to get to sleep only to start building elaborate underpasses and routes in my mind for hidden redstone circuits in Minecraft.
