i mean i could probably move around without dqing for a lil bit, i dont really count that as playing the game tho, same with the analogy about parking, u use context and stimuli to get a sense of where u are, u use the movement of the ghosts and ur tori to create a scene in ur head of whats happening and what u need to do, the staring at the ghosts and clicking joints, the sense im describing goes in between those 2 steps and u almost certainly do this. 1)stare at ghost 2)visualize what u need to do<- this is possible because of kinesthesia,spatial awareness, proprioception, whatever u wanna call it. 3) click joints.

If you can feel your own body somehow doing the things your tori is doing, you're hallucinating, not experiencing kinesthesia.
its more like being reallyy absorbed into a boxing match and twitching/flinching like u were the one throwing or dodging the punch, i can "feel" a twitch or tug when im trying flips n shit, i can sense/feel/visualize/whatever u wanna call it, for me its not so much mental imagery as it is bodily sensations the whole point i wanted with this thread was to see if people experienced this as well and how that subject experience appears to them, it seems alot of ppl in tb experience it in short moments when shit hits the fan in a match not really always on, people ive talked to that have above 30k+ games all kinda agree with me but ive never figured out how they interpret the experience
this sensation is literally the reason ive played this game for so long, movement feels fun. i get just as much enjoyment in singleplayer or fighting a green belt or fighting a god belt, the skill level of the fight doesnt take away from my enjoyment of moving my tori
