Whenever a fast paced action game like Devil May Cry, Prodeus, HiFi Rush or Doom have a grading system then I would feel like not continuing them as if some one is judging my performance, instead of a bar to get better.

It's weird that this feeling never happens in a game like Hitman or Overcooked. I view them as challenges, but not grading like in DMC.

I'm glad you have fun. If I were younger, I may still enjoy this. Now, I don't even care about achievements. It's funny that the latest game that I have the problem with is Hi-Fi Rush.

I love characters and would like to continue with the story, but thinking of grading pushed me off, while grading in Hitman doesn't push me off somehow.

I guess it's because I'm bad with tempo and feel that I keep getting B or lower.

So glad that Sekiro doesn't have a grading.
