Do you have any games that you like but you never finished for any reason? Which game is it? Doesn’t matter how many times you play and replay it you just never get to see the credits roll. I think Skyrim gonna be a quite common answer xD
Shameful to say but The Witcher 3 WH. I love the game and the plot but somehow I always get overwhelmed and drop off.
Same. Towards the end of the game feels like a slog
RDR2. I like every game design philosophy this game stands for. I love how slower-paced and contemplative, how tactile with everything it is. I just can’t summon the excitement to go through the story.
Yeah, the same thing happened to me. I was taking my pace but it took me so long to get anything done that eventually it just fizzled out for me. I don’t think I made it half way through the story and at this point I don’t think I can go back and play it because it seems like such a chore.
Bravely Default, Xenogears, Final Fantasy 5, Final Fantasy 9, Final Fantasy 10, Final Fantasy 11, Final Fantasy 12, Zelda ALTTP, Zelda MM, Harvest Moon A Wonderful Life, Xenoblade 1, Xenoblade 3…
I set a rule with myself. I’ll play games while I’m having fun and then stop when there’s something else. I don’t really care to beat games, I’ll play them to enjoy them! 😊
Monster Hunter Iceborne and Rise. The problem is that I keep trying to get all the Hunting Horns! You can’t get every weapon without going crazy. Love those games though.
diablo 3
Soviet Republic: Workers and Resources
Chemical and Aluminium supply chains were always too complex so far.
Cities Skylines
DLC2Win, traffic problems are real.
The Witcher 3
The DLC’s are too damn hard and Toussaint is so distracting. Fuck Velen.
Minecraft
I don’t even know how large parts of this game work anymore: Elytra, Portals in the End, Underwater fortresses, Pigsphere in the Nether?
Terraria
Bosses are really hard and scary.
Papers Please
Dö-Dö-Dö
Turns out if you build transit that your traffic problems go away
I’m talking about highway-connected industry with rail ex- and import and cities with trams, metro, buses, bicycle lanes. Transit didn’t solve all problems last I checked.
I mean, it sorta does in Cities Skylines tbh
Traffic Manager mod helps a lot too.
If you haven’t been keeping up with it, Cities Skylines 2 has fixed all of the problems I had with the traffic management. Mainly the awful traffic AI.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (12 hours played). Wasteland 2 (44 hours played). Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous (49 hours played).
And many others but those are probably the ones where I put more hours in before quitting.
I got like 40 hours into MGSV and I just got burnt out on it. I feel that going back I would probably have a better time but the first time I was obsessively doing the side missions and it just killed it for me.
Oh yeah, MGSV. Think I got to 50 hours, realised I was only halfway through, and put it away forever. Great game, but far too long.
I love the MGS series, I used to play the first MGS over and over again. I played and loved 2 despite Raiden, loved 3, loved 4 despite Kojima’s insistence that actually the best gameplay is a movie length cutscene. I was so amped for 5, played through Ground Zeroes, launched 5, finished the escape from the hospital at the start, and haven’t played it since. Somehow 5 is where the weebery got to me. I need to give it another chance.
Finally finished Pathfinder WOTR. Kept remaking characters and then finally played one all the way through. Took forever though.
Tons. Sometimes I don’t get bored of the game, per se, just the genre, and start playing something totally different.
Final Fantasy 7 on the PS is a game i love but i never finished. Kinda just fell off for me when I couldnt beat the weapons.
Skyrim, obvious as hell
Fallout 3 doesn’t quite count since I technically did finish it once but I have endless unfinished playthroughs and never finished the DLC main quest
The Last of Us. Not sure why, I freaking love the game, just never finished it myself.
LoZ Breath of the Wild
The Final Fantasy 7 Remake.
I got to the point where I nearly finished it, but I just stopped playing. I was enjoying it so I figured that I’d wait a few years till the whole of it was out to finish the first part. That way I can go through it and not have to be stuck listening to news and rumors as to when the story would finish.
Factorio. Beautiful elegant game but hard af.
Pretty much every GTA game, unfortunately. I always get distracted. I bucked down and beat RDR2 last month, and it was amazing.
Also Cyberpunk.
A lot of roguelikes. Especially if they use a grind to unlock system. Dead cells and rogue legacy 2 come to mind.
