People who *don't* like math, why?

I loved math. In 8th grade I was taking 10th grade math. Going into high school, they didn't accept the advanced course credit and made me retake 9th and 10th grade math. I slept through the classes, passing all the same. From my perspective the teachers appeared to dislike me, not caring about content I already knew, disrespecting them by sleeping and coasting through their class. By 11th grade when I finally reached new content, I didn't care anymore; math class remained naptime all the same.

I really want to like omori but it hit one of my biggest pet peeves in gaming. I abhor it when winning an "impossible" fight is mathematically possible to win but then the cutscene has you lose anyway. I dont have as much issue with actual impossible fights or fights with losing cutscenes after winning that game over on a loss. Its just fights that are meant to be impossible but arent, without changing any part of the outcome.

(Spoilers here for prospective players) Outside of the dream for the first time (assuming it happens more than once), I stocked up on medical supplies and unequipped the knife, and then beat Aubrey with my bare hands, and she still freaks out that I have a knife. Instantly lost my immersion and I dropped the game.

I dropped inscryption for the same reason when I won despite the static at the end of act 2 and the game doesn't even acknowledge your success.
