@grumpygamer I'm an optimist, I prefer to find out while playing that WASD is automatically adapted to my keyboard layout and be pleasantly surprised (or disappointed if it's not) than killing the surprise by checking the options.
@grumpygamer The only setting I really care about is the font size. It really seems like no modern games are designed to be played on a TV from across the living room.

☑️ Turn down all volumes except voice and start playing.
I find nearly every game is mixed in a way where I miss half the dialogue unless I turn on subtitles and hate resorting to that. Obv not a problem for games without voice acting.
I bet many people have that one thing they flip in settings before playing (inverted, subtitles, text speed, screen flashes, etc.)
@grumpygamer I start playing, immediately get annoyed by motion blur, mouse acceleration, resolution scaling and fov too low and then begins the options quest + modding
@grumpygamer Even if it is the most basic 2d game, I always look into the options first. There could be such fundamental settings like if the toilet paper is over or under.
@grumpygamer especially if it's a 3d game, options first to get rid of stuff like view shake and motion blur, and set the controls to something not stupid. (not sure what psychopaths claw their hands to use "C" for crouch but somehow that's become default in like 50% of games....)
