I'm audhd but I'm have noticed similar with one ADHD and one officially neurotypical but suspect friend. Particularly in Fat Shark games I can "read" the environment very easily to see how to progress while they blindly bumble around and get distracted constantly.
Personally I have trouble with getting bored in the pauses. Whether it's having to wait to progress through text boxes or gameplay is just slow and enemies have long windups (looking at you fromsoft), I get distracted and end up losing interest. Stuff like the combat speedup settings in Rogue Trader are great for me.
