Deep-End Monster

Normally you drift around looking for the next hit — until something grabs you, and then your focus is frightening. It is zero or a hundred, and even you cannot predict the switch.

• If a topic does not interest you, not one word gets in
• You can talk about your current obsession for thirty minutes unprompted
• The moment the heat dies, the whole setup goes up for resale

You go all in, and it startles people at first. The drop from that peak is steep, so the calm afterwards gets misread as losing interest. Everything depends on whether you can say that out loud.

You can talk for hours about the thing you are into. The other person may not be equally into it. When the phase ends, so does the contact — quietly.

Hundreds of hours in one title, then one day you simply stop. You either complete every achievement or none of them.

You pour everything into whatever has you right now. No ceiling on merch, no ceiling on in-game spending. You come back to yourself later, looking at what is left in the room.

• ほどほど必要な刺激の濃さFull Blast

  Faint signals bore you. Something has to be happening.

• じっくり見切りの速さNext, Please

  You bail fast. The second it is not working, you are out.

• 耐えられる待てるかどうかCannot Wait

  You want it now. Even thirty seconds of nothing is too long.

• 集中できる注意の持続Wanders Off

  When you are in, you are deep. The room disappears.
