it won't kill you but the tedium of having to make lots and lots of decisions about things you might not necessarily care about (when pitched against your wider vision) could put you into a stultifying torpor. especially when you've not unlocked the infinite money cheat and so you're making choices which will either have compromises or necessitate compromises elsewhere. you need to figure out the hard line on where/what you will compromise. there will be things you just don't care about either, but which are super important, and so you kinda need to learn to care
