As agonizing as that will be

And if my wrists still hurt then I think I need to call a doctor

Ghost of Yotei......... I will return

oh my god it's spreading

I’ve been playing a LOT of controller games lately and not only do my wrists hurt but Ive had low grade pins and needles in my hands all day

Which feels bad

When you return, consider changing controllers and hand exercises.

I know certain controllers make my hands cramp bad because they're a hair narrower

I’ll reassess the situation Monday

That’ll give me a few days to recover, if that’s the problem

yeah, resting for a few days sounds like a good idea.

The pins and needles feeling is definitely a sign you should rest at the risk of repetitive strain injury or something. And where they're located in your hands might tell you if it's your wrists or elbows

For now, yeah, let 'em rest for a few days and go from there.

PLEASE REST !!!!!

I have learned from your pain not to brush this off!

I am taking it seriously!

But between Hades 2 and Ghost of Yotei, I basically spent my whole vacation with a controller in my hands

So I’m hoping all I need to do is cut back on that

good idea for sure

when you return to controller games, i have found it stresses my wrists less if I am holding the controller on a pillow in my lap, so that I am not supporting any of the controller's weight with my hands and wrists

(i have chronic recurring tendonitis issues w my wrists so I have stuff I figured out to reduce flare ups)

I will spend the next few days sighing longingly while staring out the window and dreaming of hokkaido

i hope your tendons are NOT like mine and are normal

Fingers crossed!

But only metaphorically, I don’t want to stress them

I recommend not resuming The Activities until it's been a couple days since it hurt

also of note, if you have the same enfuckening as Duo and formerly/periodically me as opposed to, like, carpal tunnel or something

you may feel more pain in your wrist while the main problem is actually in the thumb

that said I never got pins and needles with it so my money is on something at least slightly different

I don’t feel like I’m losing any dexterity or range of movement, at least

Like I can still do whatever if I need to

And I’m not any more of a klutz than usual

So that’s good at least
