Not sure how to title this better 😅

Are there any games that you tend to play contrary to how they are intended?

What prompted this question was playing Project Zomboid; but I am all comfortable and snug in my home base that it doesn’t feel like playing a zombie survival game anymore. I feel like I am just playing The Sims with a character that mimics my introverted ass. I never leave the house and just spend all day reading, watching videos, learning new crafts, and just staying alive. I have no need to scavenge since I am loaded up with tons of armor, guns, ammo, food, a source of water, a generator and acess to a near limitless supply of fuel from an underground fuel tank generated in the basement.

How 'bout y’all? Do you prefer Surf to actual Counter-Strike? Have an unconventional way of playing Pokemon? I wanna know! 😃

    I spent months modding Skyrim to be as realistic as possible. Nutrition, calories, temperature, disease, frostbite, starvation, injuries, infection, no level scaling, dangerous combat, one life. Took a week to gather and prepare for a dungeon dive.

    Frost Troll greeted me when I entered the dungeon. One swipe killed me.

    That’s when I learned that the modding was the part I had the most fun with.
