Over 600 hours on No Man's Sky. I've been playing since it launched in 2016. My son and his cousin snuck onto my game and killed my character so many times I couldn't find my stuff. I hadn't had a chance to play with the new settings and turn off losing your stuff when you die ... ugh.

Just a weird momma making art, playing video games, & trying to befriend crows in her TX neighborhood

My son doesn't know how to turn on the PS5 but I'm sure he killed my guy a couple of times lol

I would have a really hard time keeping my anger in perspective

That's the stem of what would upset me: feeling like I would not be able to trust my kid to do what they know is the right thing even when I'm not looking. It's something I try to drill into the core of my kid's being, sometimes more successfully than others. 

But it would also be hella annoying lol

At the end of the day, it's just a game. My biggest gripe is touching my console without asking. Before they changed the way the game saved, it was easy to just reset. Not his fault the game saves changed, and I've always let him play it. But never without asking. His older cousin has no respect for people's stuff, so now I have to make sure they stay away from it when he's here because my kid loves his cousin and isn't going to tattle
