ADHD and cutscenes means a laptop game and a console game so you're never ever waiting. Must be nice to have a brain that doesn't need that.

Train your brain to not "need" it. Brains are malleable whether someone diagnosed and labeled them or not. Concentrate on something else during those cut scenes, read a book, study the clock or thermometer or cat or leaves on the trees. Imagine a scenario where the power fails and you can't play games. Anything which doesn't enslave you to technology.
I mean, I also have a smartphone to play games in quick 5 minute breaks

Are console loading times really still that shit? I haven't found PC loading times to be much of an issue since fast SSDs came around

More like there's a waiting lobby for multiplayer games, e.g. Fortnite.
