I do this for a few things, movies in particular. For me most recently, I’m planning on watching Bo Burnham’s Inside this weekend, for the first time since I watched it shortly post-release. I wasn’t really intending to wait *checks watch* nearly 3 years on that one, but I definitely felt it needed some space before a rewatch.
Anyone else treat certain pieces of media similarly?
Halo reach, I’ll never get the feeling of my first run through back, but I forget smaller details when I wait a few years between playthroughs.
Surviving long enough in the unwinnable battle at the end that the game just straight up ripped control away was an accomplishment/heartbreak.
