OMG shocked AG OCD! rotfl

Haven't been playing lots of games lately, but I normally close things up, too (in games). More than once, though, I wanted to see what would happen if I didn't. The games did it for me... & when I turned back to the drawers or cabinets, they'd be closed.

I am a little like that too. I love adventure games because they use logic and the player can put himself/herself into the story easier because of it. I don't leave the water running either but I do enjoy taking everythig that I can get my hands on. LOL Of course there are some things that are not logical like putting 1000's of items in your pocket or back pack but I wouldn't have it any other way.
As for leaving doors open, if there are many I leave them open so I can tell what room I have been in as I have a poor sence of direction. Otherwise I close them. I always close cabinet doors and drawers.

I was one of those who left the tap running in Broken Sword and flooded the cellar. The landlord wasn't happy. lol

My only misdemeanour. I'm usually scrupulous about closing doors, drawers, cupboards (and taps). grin

Yep, me too! Gotta close up the drawers, closets, etc, etc. I think I think that I will get "caught" snooping. Sometimes it won't close back but when you turn around you hear the slam or click and whew, thank goodness it closed! lol

lol I would have left that tap on, too... on purpose and with great glee, Rushes... just to see the outcome. AG OCD would've probably caused me to save just before doing it, however.grin

Sometimes not putting something back can get you in trouble, as with a certain small bridge in Rhem which affects the walkway in a different area. However, not putting moveable walls back might just open up a different area on another level, as in another game in the Rhem world. I usually try both to see if it makes any difference.

As for drawers, etc., in most 1st person games, they usually close automatically. It makes it easier for the developer to use the original view of the room when the player backs away from close up.

I do the same thing always putting things back and closing all doors and etc. I think it is partly that maybe I think I will find an easter egg when I do things out of the ordinary in the game. Who knows maybe were all a little insane from too many Adventure games Ha Ha Have a great day everyone. Trisha broccoli grin happydance
