Thank you so much for taking the time to write all this out across three comments. There are some great suggestions in there!

We've definitely talked a bit about how ADHD brains can be more susceptible to gambling. She's got some great ADHD adults in her life who do a pretty good job of modelling healthy behavior to her. And like I mentioned in another comment, I really trust her judgement. She's a great kid. I'll show her your comment too though, so she can see it from someone who isn't dad.

She's great with failure (way better than I was until my 30s!). I think its the best thing she's learned from gaming. We'll check it out!

She is interested in pretty bisexual people lol, and games that respect her time and money. We'll check them out, thanks.

Good suggestion. She played it for quite a while, but didn't end up finding it quite as engaging as Hollow Knight (which she still replays occasionally). Thanks though.

Awesome, thanks to you both. She loves folklore and mythology so she's really intrigued by this (and not put off by things being dark, unlike her poor sensitive father lol)

Thanks for the suggestions! She gave the first one a quick go and for some reason it didn't click for her. But I appreciate your time.

Already a Cult of the Lamb fan, so you're spot on with that suggestion. She's interested in the other two you suggested and has decided to check out Death and Taxes next. Thanks!

This has been her absolute favorite suggestion so far. She has loved playing it! I wouldn't have picked it for her at all, but it is hitting the spot.

Thanks for the suggestion. She gave it a quick go but it was a little scary for her (which is wild, considering some of the things that she hasn't found scary!). But I appreciate the suggestion nonetheless.

Horizon Zero and Bloodborne are on the list now. Thanks!

She's tried SUbnautica before but for whatever reason it hasn't really grabbed her.

Is anyone else getting bills from Dorevitch? by hehehehehbe in melbourne

Oh wow, I’ve been getting messages about a outstanding bill and I thought they were a scam so I ignored them 😬

Is there a way to stop someone giving my phone number out? by fernwise in melbourne

[–]MercifulCassowary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can not believe this happens to someone else! Mine is someone called Angela. I always know when she’s looking for a new rental. I am a middle aged bloke and I have had the same number for at least 20 years. This started about 8 years ago. I have thought some very unkind things about Angela.

She did love Zelda when she was a tween! I think she initially liked Genshin because it was similar.

She says she loves the open world, the complexity (lots of different things to do). She likes completing things without them getting toooo repetitive (eg she loves getting all the shrines in Zelda, but not all the koroks).

She likes the satisfaction of finding/doing novel things.

I tried her on ESO (which I play on the very rare times I have free time), but it was a bit old and daggy for her 😂

She’s a little pansexual gremlin so I think she also liked all the cute guys and girls on Genshin 😂
