“i’m done” just means that i really cannot play the game anymore to the point where i’d actually go insane if i continue.
I was wondering about the “I’m done” and I love it. When you’re satisfied with the game and don’t feel like you need to play any more.
Something I’m starting to realize too. Just because I start a game doesn’t mean I need to play it to the credits as soon as possible. I’m the only one fixated on my trophy list or hours played.
So, I actually do need to play to the credits ASAP for two reasons. First, coming back to a game is intimidating. So if I put a game down, I end up deliberating between restarting and trying to relearn the entire game from the last checkpoint. Usually I end up playing something else.
Second, I meander a lot. So even games I’m actively playing I try to stick to the plot so I don’t burn out playing side stuff. (It’s not always even side content. Sometimes it’s just dicking around.)
Feel that- source: I’m a Like A Dragon fan.
But another reason I tend to binge each game is lack of storage space and rising file sizes. Don’t want to download 100 GB again so better finish it immediately.
tfw my backlog is 160 games on steam alone.
Thats with a year of chipping away. It used to be worse lmao
I lost count of the number of games in my backlog, so a while ago I tried a similar spreadsheet. Mainly to stop me from replaying game I already finished multiple times and focusing on others instead. However, that felt too close to work instead of fun, so I gave up and went back to my favourite classics.
yeah i really feel that. according to steam i have 220 hours in resident evil 4 just replaying it over again or playing mods for it etc. having done my spreadsheet i’ve really felt a sense of completion when i complete games. i felt it heavier on games i spent more time on as apposed to games with like 15 hours.
edit: just checked my steam and my most played game is starbound at 264.8 hours and i’ve only completed it once and played modded the few times after.
I’d recommend pushing through on Undertale. I have 19 hours played and I did all runs/endings. The first playthrough is probably under 6 hours total. One of the most memorable games I’ve ever played.
Yeah I plan on finishing undertale after I finish doom since I’m probably much closer to finishing that than I am undertale
Based on the games in your list, you should check out Horizon: zero dawn and the sequel, Forbidden West. They’re great.
yeah a friend of mine let me borrow from his steam library a while ago and i tried zero dawn. at the time i fell into the trap of playing a game once and never again. i’ll add the game to the backlog of my backlog so i’ll get around to it after i complete the list here.
It was on sale for 12 wing wangs last week. May still be on sale… check it if you want
That’s a small backlog. Do you have more not listed?
I have a bunch categorized by whether or not I want to do the achievements or not before considering it done, and also if multiple playthroughs are planned or not and why.
I’m also mentally deranged…
What is Zelda 3?
Should be the SNES one, “A Link to the Past”
Yes that is correct
For MGSV if you haven’t cheated yet I suggest it just for the money at least. Download a cheat table and run cheat engine. I don’t like the base building parts of games so I just blew through that by giving myself all the money.
That way I can just do the mission parts of the game without caring what is going on at mother base.
Congrats on making it to the credits on Nier! What did you think of the game?
It almost made me cry lol. Only 3 games have made me that emotional: omori, Zelda totk, and now nier. What an amazing experience it was tho.
Right there with you, the thing at the end really got me. I’ve been getting the itch to do another run, the combat was just so much fun imo
Yeah I agree. I’ll probably revisit it in a year or two so its fresh. I had my save data deleted after I finished the game because I really wanted to see if they were bluffing at the end (they were not) lmao.
I would have been disappointed if they were bluffing. The consequence is what gives the decision weight
Yeah you’re right. Plus it now gives me an excuse to go back to 100% it.
