Mine always is, completely forgetting what I was doing and where I was going after not touching a save file for a long time. This is happening to me right now with Stardew Valley.

I’m in Year 4, married Maru, have a decent farm going, I have yet to build the movie theater I just found out so that’s something I can do. And I know up until that point, I called it a conclusion of a game, but yet I forgot completely about there being some minor goals or things I wanted to do. Completely out of my head. It was a year ago since I last touched that save.

This happens a lot with old saves, because sometimes I have had something in mind as to how I was going to play the game or where I was going with a character.

    This is specifically for rhythm games, but I hate it when they don’t give you a judgement error during the play (early/late indicators) or a total of early/late hits in the results screen.

    Even when they do show that information, sometimes they don’t even tell you by how much on average in ms, only the amount of hits that are early and late. You could be consistently late by as small as 5ms, or something stupid like 50ms but you wouldn’t know. And now you just have to eyeball the offset adjustment, going back and forth, in and out between the settings menu and a song to check if you did it right.

    Oh, and I hope the game uses millisecond offset instead of some esoteric arbitrary scale with no label — bonus points if it’s not granular enough to set right so you end up with an offset that is either uncomfortably early or uncomfortably late no matter what you do.

    And also, the offset calibration tool is useless in every rhythm game. It does not help whatsoever, and if anything it makes it more confusing to set things up :)
