For a long time, I used to intentionally face death over and over in Zork, because (I don't know why now) I wanted to see the limits of my environment. In practically every game, actually. You might say, people die lots of times playing Zork, but I was doing stuff that was clearly in game suicidal.
 Does this sound familiar or odd?

Not exactly.  I've gotten to the point I can laugh off most of my deaths in souls games though.  I will sometimes jump off of things if I think there might be something down that results in death though.

 I think it broke the illusion in some way and I began to see beneath the veil.
 

Yeah I feel like that in souls games sometimes now.
