Don't forget that perseveration stuff too. How many times can the same exact series of movement fail to get you through something before you change your tactics?

Here's something you might try for FPS games, occasionally avert your eyes from the screen for a second or two.

no issues like what you describe. Probably because I grew up on them. Oh and also because I don't have these "sensory issues" that so many aspies struggle with. When I was a kid, I would sometimes cover my ears and cry when I was in a loud auditorium or rowdy bus. But I've grown out of that.

I get annoyed when there isn't enough noise in the game, because then everything in my actual room/house distracts me. I need a constant to focus on.
