Do people do this outside of videogames? For me the main reason was always that, instead of burning finite resources, I could always solve the problem burning infinite resources (retrying with quicksave)

You grind enemies to get more powerful.

I grind enemies to get enough money to buy 99 of each consumable.

We are not the same.

I have never felt more seen.

The big bad is coming. Must. Not. Waste. A. Single. Potion.

Finished Gothic1 Remake:

• 50 Minor Healing Potions

• 50 Moderate Healing Potions

• 50 Major Healing Potions

• 30 Minor Mana Potions

• 85 Medium Mana Points

• 30 Major Mana Potions

How did I heal the damage the final boss gave me?

Healing spell and ratty swampweed which costs 10 ore.

I could have been running around the game facetanking everyone with the amount of potions I had

All those wheels of cheese finally caught up with the dragon born's arteries.

I feel attacked

Chugging my estus flasks

You would have no hope of rending the gates of heaven and casting out god without at LEAST this amount of full revives, Werner Von Dipshit

And if he dies he just respawns at the last save point right?

And then when I get to the next boss, I save them all in case I need them for the boss after that. For the final boss its in case theres a second/third/fourth stage. Really I just think I like challenging myself.
