What makes you finally look for help on a game?

When you are struggling with a puzzle or some other aspect of a game, how long/hard do you work at it before you finally throw in the towel and look up the answer online? What makes you finally go “enough is enough”?

When I'm clueless on how to proceed. Normally it's trying to solve puzzles for me, like in those Zelda games.

It depends on the game really. There are certain games where I will get frustrated and just give up by turning the game off. But if it's a game I like or got recently, then chances are after a while, I will either search the mission/puzzle online or check YouTube for a solution. Fortunately, the types of games that I play normally don't require that much thinking so very rarely do I need to find a solution.

Helps me to not lose interest in the game.

I don't always look for help as it varies to game to game. I either get really frustrated, admit defeat or find an easier video game to play. Although occasionally, challenging games helps not to loose interest and stay engaged with what I'm playing. On the otherhand, if I'm really struggling, I'll end up researching for tutorials on media-platforms or websites such as YouTube on the difficult stage I'm trying to overcome.

Sometimes, I take a break from the game and the solution usually comes to me when doing something totally unrelated. Going to Youtube for help is the dead last resort, as in - no method I have thought or tried has solved my issue.
