Autism and My Special Interests

Looking back on it I guess my special interest has been gaming, since from a young age and currently still, I play game. There are other things I do but gaming is always the thing I fall back up on. Reading, writing, movies, baking, photography are but a few of the hobbies I have. But in recent years I've been experiencing burn out, but it could be due to age, or modern games.


But there is one game that I will always keep coming back to and I've been playing it since I got it. It was the 2000 Skies of Arcadia and then the Legends version on the GameCube. I will play this once a year (roughly).


I have even started to remake bit and pieces from the game that seems to be dying out. So, the passion I still hold for this one game is still there. To the point that I recently made a new friend to someone who was playing it for their first time and giving them tips on how to play the game.


But that is a tangent for another day, I also enjoy anime and manga. To which I still enjoy watching and reading these. I collect them so my bookcase is slowly being filled up with a small mass of books and DVDs/blu-rays.


Which is a pretty vast collection in itself with other films and shows that I own. I will on occasion will re watch an old film or series that I've already seen, only because I enjoy it.
