    I have a confession to make: I don't finish games..

    My backlog continues to grow. I’d seen the name Dying Light a good bit so I picked it up on my way home from work.


    Edit: funny thing is the only 2 games that I feel compelled to play are Far Cry 4 and Dying Light.

      I added to my backlog the other day during Best Buy's black friday sale.

      TLOU: Remastered
      God of War III Remastered
      Stardew Valley
      I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

      I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

        Just bought parts for a gaming pc and will be pc gaming for the first time since the original Duke Nukem. So went on steam and got games I probably won't finish.

        Rise of the Tomb Raider
        Just Cause 3
        Witcher 3
        Halo Wars
        Dreamfall Chapters
        Total War: Warhammer
        Far Cry package 1-4 (Never played this series)

        I think since I have a lot more time on my hands I can finish the games I bought already and wait on great games and buy them when they are dirt cheap. Only games I will buy day 1 are NBA 2k, Forza and Gran Turismo.

          I picked up Return to Arkham on sale, never mind I have yet to start Arkham Knight. Guess I can play them in order now. I started (but never finished) Asylum on the PS3. City will be brand new for me.

            I am doing this now, I finished Arkham ayslum and city, now moving to night. Got me motivated to start finishing games. Once done with night might finish the division solo, like halfway done, and maybe wildlands. maybe even destiny? haha did alot of that one already, just to complete story.

              Was so tempted to get Wildlands yesterday but went with Far Cry Primal instead

                Finished TF2 campaign in 2 days, fun story even though short. Few hours each day.

                    The straight forward campaigns i do not have any issues completing them. It is the open world style games that want you to get to a location and do the same repetitive style missions that i do not bother finishing. I rather just watch the stories unfold on youtube. I did that with mafia 3, and ghost recon wildlands.

                      Re: I have a confession to make: I don't finish games..

                      Finished a few campaigns recently:

                      The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild (Switch)
                      Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (3DS)
                      Lego City Undercover (Switch)

                      Going back to Horizon Zero Dawn (PS4) and going to just play that until I complete that campaign. Tomb Raider (not Rise) I also need to finish up, more than a year after starting. I'm around 60% done with it. I like the game, just seems to fall out of my rotation.
                      Currently Playing:
                      MLB The Show 25 (PS5)

                        It’s going to take a while but I know I’ll finish these RPGs I’ve fallen in love with. I’m playing some coach mode in Madden 18 right now and can’t stop thinking about how I’m gonna fire up Divinity: Original Sin AS SOON AS this game is over. LOL

                          I've gotten a bit better since I originally posted this. I am not finishing a lot more games per se but I'm revisiting older games and going further into them.

                          For me the hardest part is to get out of the mindset of "oh that is an old game" and not playing it again. So what if it's a year old, if it's still a good game pop it in is what I have to remind myself.

                            My problem is jumping back in and forgetting the controls or what the hell was going on in the story.

                            With that said I went back and re-started TellTale's Batman and got through two episodes this weekend. I hope to finish the rest this week.

                              It’s funny that for the longest time, finishing a game meant playing more than one season in franchise/dynasty

                                I'm hoping to finally push through the Yakuza series as I've amassed quite a collection of games from them after I finish up Batman and possibly Batman: Arkham Origins.

                                My strategy for open-world games is going to be to do story missions first and only do side missions/item collections that add value to the character in some way. Hopefully that'll streamline a lot of games for me. GTA and Yakuza are probably the biggest culprits I have.
