And Diablo 2: Resurrected has almost no such systems. After all, I’m completely reliant on it to get anywhere in the game.
My skill at competitive shooters will always be stuck at a certain point, because while I can think through the tactical options of each gunfight using the cover and the parts of the map I can see, if there’s a door to go through, I will never know what’s on the other side, no matter how many times I’ve gone through it.īut my condition also makes it easier to tell whether a game’s map or waypoint system is effective. It’s rare, and my case is apparently only moderate, but it impacts all aspects of my life.ĭiablo 2 gives everyone a small taste of what it’s like to have my brain I honestly thought this was something uniquely broken about my brain for years, until I read the book Unthinkable, which describes others with this condition. I live a relatively normal life, but that’s due to having too many small coping mechanisms to count. If I’m in a one-on-one situation and the other person asks me for directions, I have to hide my panic attack.
I know how to get to the bathroom in my house, but I can’t visualize the walk. I didn’t begin driving until I could afford an early GPS. When I was a child, I would get lost in my school at least once a day.
I can’t create mental maps, no matter how hard I try. I just never thought a remastered version of a classic game would finally be the thing that helped me come to peace with my own brain. I’m lost most of the time when I’m playing Diablo 2: Resurrected, but then again, I’m lost most of the time when I drive to the grocery store.
