It was a hard thought to articulate. I didn't mean to say that I don't have trouble controlling my attention, it's just that the overtly visually hyperactive and overstimulating games are not what I gravitate towards, as in they fall into a category of stuff that's just "fake" dopamine (like most Type A work related success) and for me to actually be focused I usually need to literally be in danger or something. Maybe I interpreted your original comment incorrectly though.
Most of my interactions with people who don't have ADHD assume it's a sort of scatterbrained constant switching no matter what, and that if I just got a calendar and a to-do list it would fix all my problems. Those people normally can't imagine not being dopamine rewarded by their boring-ass office work or being on time or earning money. I need something that isn't an artificial abtract construct in order to not be bored to the point where I'll lose my job.
But I absolutely accept that everyone's somewhere diferent on the spectrum.
