Discussion Do you repeat playing games/ films/ series/ books you like?

[PeopleAreCruel]

I used to play the same multiplayer games everyday, it was a habit. Same friends I played with everyday too, I don't read, watch or play anything anymore.

 

[Irisse]

Yes because I can no longer concentrate on anything new, and I keep forgetting what I watched/read/played immidiately after. So I keep coming back to media that is "safe" to me, like Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Pocket Mirror and Game of Thrones.

 

[lamy's sacred sleep]

i almost never rewatch shows unless im watching it with another person.
I used to reread books a lot when i was younger, but that was when i only had books on hand before i could just find books on the internet.

but when it comes to music, i will listen to my favourites and very rarely get bored of them.

music is one of my favourite escapes so this is what my most listened to looks for the past 6 months. when i find something i like, i dont let go

I only play one game, (osu!) and you can pretty much play it indefinitely although I do take a few months break after playing for a month or two, mostly due to life.

love osu

I try to be cautious with revisiting media, specifically video game since everytime I play it, it's seems to loose its charm a bit, it becomes more and more predictable. Although I really like to play the same games over and over every now and then.

 

[Duochrome-Seahorse]

For books I wouldn't reread unless I LOVE IT love it, I re-listen to music all the time as a stim, i used to re-watch movies but haven't gotten the motivation to lately, and I re-watch shows if I know it will give me a sense of comfort.

I acc re-watched lucky star a few months ago and I felt like I was taken back to a time where it was bearable to live.

My friends hate me for this habit. I will listen to a song on repeat for months, but by day 2, people are begging me to play something else.
Its just a nice constant. I know what's coming next, I know how it makes me feel, it is predictable and safe and reliable. Its one thing that I can really really control and oversee and predict accurately.
Probably why I also end up watching the same shows, movies, etc.

 

[TwistedNightmares]

I used to do this, but it is hard for me to enjoy anything now, due to suffering from anhedonia.

 

[X-sanguinate86]

Some tv shows and movies.

 

[meiherasoru_]

Sometimes when I rewatch a series/movie, I always find a detail that I missed the first time.

 

[Chemi]

All the time. Nostalgia is one hell of a drug. Also having to learn a new story can often be stressful for me and I'd rather choose what i already know ^^
