        Will do, just need to wait until I’m in a watching head space first (I’m having a bit of a hard time sitting down to watch anything at the moment). Thanks for recommendation though!

          This was me in the early pandemic. I was basically confined to my small apartment and didn’t want to watch anything. So, I played a lot more games in that period. The other thing that I found I was much more able to tolerate was non-fiction. I ended up watching a lot of documentaries in that period.

            For me it’s pretty much a cyclical thing. It happens regardless of circumstances so I just have to wait it out - I usually stick with manga & games until it swaps again.
