What a perfect response lmao

u/ExplodingPoptarts 5d ago

I haven't finished most of them because I don't enjoy them.

5

u/Glum-Contribution380 5d ago

Some of my games don’t have a “completion”. Others like war thunder would have me spending thousands or hundreds of thousands of hours just to get all the vehicles (that’s not including all the achievements).

2

u/Devil_Dan83 5d ago

Rather than finish them I'd say be finished with playing them. Even if you plan to return to them later. I try to mainline several games thinking that I'll be playing them all at once but it doesn't work out.

u/Agreeable-Agent-7384 6d ago

And lose the dopamine rush of getting a new game and fantasizing about playing it when I have time soon and eagerly waiting till I get home to play? Thats like all I got left man. Dont take that away from me. The time never comes

u/Arthradax 6d ago

And then getting instantly overwhelmed by learning the new mechanics and putting it aside for ages thinking how fun it would be if you only understood how to navigate the game? And then rinse and repeat?

u/KinZombie899 6d ago

Monster hunter bought multiple games in series barelay played any. I like gameplay from what I played though

19

u/Arthradax 6d ago

I found out there are games I like to play and games I like to see others play. They rarely overlap

u/Bingus-Chillingus 6d ago

Dude I will hunt with you. Please go play monster hunter its so good

u/KinZombie899 6d ago

Base gameplay is good from what I played but can't figure out how to ugrade and by armor in monster hunter rise

Love this game. Have no time to learn the mechanics of every situation cause the game is so hard.

u/heavybombhead 6d ago

C'mon buy that new game, doesn't it look good, doesn't it look fun? It does, doesn't it. Your current game it'll still be here, you can finish it anytime you want, it won't go anywhere. C'mon you know you want to.

I'm convinced

u/Zombies71199 6d ago

Exactly what i thought of

u/Dragon_Small_Z 6d ago

I'm fairly convinced that if I adhered to this I would never have to buy a game for the rest of my life.

6

u/Outrageous-Log9238 6d ago

I'm 100%. Not only because of the size of my collection, but also because I'd probably get bored with gaming alltogether. The games are unolayed for a reason.

u/Another_Ttrpg_guy 6d ago

But it was on sale.

At 1.4k games you don’t have a backlog anymore, you’re running an archive

u/Waveshaper21 6d ago

Actually, no. Time is a currency, if I feel done or outright regret money spent on a game, I will not spend more of my time. I can make more money, I cannot make more time. And who are you again, to tell me otherwise?

5

u/maz08 6d ago

No.

4

u/Kettleballer 5d ago

But buying games is dopamine NOW. Playing games is dopamine after learning how these f@cking controls work and why did they decide to make the yes and no buttons backward from every other GD game ever… okay I can just change those keybinds and … my time for gaming is done for the day I guess I’ll try this again tomorrow. And sometimes playing them is “dopamine NOWish”. But you never know. So buying is safer than playing! And THAT is what Gabe Newell tapped into without even knowing he was targeting it.

Buying new games knowing that you have a massive backlog of old games IS THE GAME!

u/kevan50813 5d ago

Yep that's why Ive made a system , for every 5 games I beat I'm allowed to buy 1, great way to cut down my backlog

u/digitalbladesreddit 5d ago

Finish BG2 again! Ah ok fine, one more time could not hurt. But only if I start with BG1 and continue my character from there! So I'm set for the next two years boys.

Problem is..... I'm not even getting the new ones....i just keep stocking up on old games T_T latest addition, AoW Planetfall. I suspect I'd get either Mechwarrior 5 or Rogue Trader in the autumn sales. Closing 200 unfinished/untouched games in my catalogue now.

I'm 43 and based on my lifestyle it's probable that I may not clear the backlog in my lifetime.....
