Serious question, how do I get out of this autistic perfectionist mindset? I want the mental freedom to do whatever I want in Pokemom games and not give a shit if my save file looks weird but I can't help being a perfectionist retard. How do people name their protagonist "Farts", glitch the hell out of their games, manipulate their DS clock in weird ways and not be bothered at all by it? Like what's the mindset and how do I get into it?
