    While I understand it’s not appropriate to generalize since things can affect people’s mental health/functioning in different ways, I’ve have been diagnosed with ADHD and am doing duty roulette content, extreme trials, savage raids, and ultimate raids, and as I play it seems to me like there’s a lot of variety in how much stimulation is provided based on the content and the jobs.

    In general the end result is that the amount of stimulation is combined value from the job + the content, although that’s probably stating the obvious.

    So i'm going to try to break it down, to why its an issue to me

    First, I need to think otherwise my mind starts to process, both negative and past things when that happens mentally 2 things happen, and I have 0 way of preventing it either I disassociate and lose track of reality/time and space basically both physically and thoughts freeze up in essence into blackness or at times another place/period (like to when I was 8.. and not a good thing)

    Or two Hypersexual/playful sets off Which gets me into more trouble than anything else, when I'm in a good mood/hyper, is when I get into the most trouble everywhere, This is why I need the distraction of requiring brain triggers to think about things and process so what happans to me is being focused into a method that helps me (idk if I'm explaining it right) But for example I'm a biomedical major, the classes and stuff I have really allow me to be for the most part "okay", something I have been working on in therapy to use my extreme states and overthinking in ways that would keep me out of trouble/ from being drawn into the flames like a moth. (ps what I have isn't adhd although it has similar traits to it).


    I don't care about difficulty things can be easy and still require thought process and some mental engagement. (this is why all jobs and all content is an issue, it falls under motor skill engagement not mental engagement. ) Its basicly a dance routine in all content/combat pve wise its always step one step two repeat step four step 3 etc, these are motor skills being engaged not mental engagement.


    An easy game to show this is really minecraft easy game, but when your building your castle or w/e you have to mentally draw out a blueprint for your build and get to work (very easy) yet mentally it is highly engaging. This is why I don't understand why people are saying this has to do with diffuculty it doesn't it wouldnt matter if the game was made hard with highly complex try hard job systems the PROPLEM would still be there even if it was extremely hard, because its still only motor skills being engaged
