PC Gaming

The shorter list for me is Games I have finished.

Zelda BotW, the game has all the elements of an RPG I like, but I just can’t enjoy it enough due to its weapon system. A metal sword shouldn’t break after 3 hits.

I think I've put over 500 hours into Skyrim and still haven't met the Greybeards. What a game.

Final Fantasy 12 is another game I keep picking up every couple years and I swear I keep dropping it at the same point every time.

Dragon Age Inquisition I really need to pick up again, that was a good one, but I need to finish Horizon Zero Dawn first, then go back to Elden Ring, probably pick Witcher 3 back up at some point.. yeah, I have a lot of unfinished games.

Shit that's basically half my steam library, if I'm honest.

Most. lol

The Stanly Parable. Just can't seem to get past the broom closet.

on a serious note Starcraft 2 Legacy of the Void. I've literally not even touched single player.

Subnautica:Below Zero.

I got quite far, I think. But the overworld bits are just kind of bland, and boring.

Horizon: Zero Dawn. I got absolute shite aim on the best of days and playing on a controller just makes it worse. Switched to m+kb eventually, but by then, the experience was already marred. Think I'll give it some more time, then try again.

I finish all of my games nowadays, but in the past, I regret to have stopped playing at Skies of Arcadia. It’s an awesome game, and I almost finished it back in the days, but I was stuck and I stopped trying at some point. That’s a game I will definitely finish someday :).

Yep, I have a bad habit of getting like 3/4 through a game and never finishing it. I've been meaning to go back to Yakuza: Like A Dragon at some point because I'm pretty sure I'm nearly at the end by now, but for some reason I can't bring myself to launch the game again and just finish it.

System Shock 2. Scary. I start pooping from the front around Hydroponics and can't continue.

all of them. no seriously, I have a habit of avoiding the endings thinking I will play more with open worlds and then stop playing.

The vast vast majority of games I play.

Oxigen Not Included, RimWorld, Gone Medieval, Stationeers, Starbound, Stardew Valley, etc

Define "finished". A lot of the games I enjoy are ones that don't have an "ending", like Crusader Kings or Civ.

In general though, I try to finish games I'm enjoying and quickly stop playing games I'm not enjoying so that I can move onto something else.

Most games I've ever played

Most of them. One of my favourite games of all time, Twilight Princess, is one I haven't technically finished. Did a 100% run for my first full playthrough, spent hours and hours and enjoyed every second. Then I lost my save file (was playing on Cemu) when I was in the castle at the end. Like less than an hour left in the game.

I did play the game a bunch as a kid on my GameCube, but never finished it cause little me liked to just fuck around more than actually progress the game lmao

I'm a chronic side quest chaser.

I'd stop right before the final mission and then do all the left over side content.

I usually burn out and just never finish the game.

There are plenty of games I thought were good but couldn’t get into, or games where I got distracted and fell off them. So I’ll limit this list to games where I got really far along and then made a conscious decision to stop.

Persona 4 Golden, at the start of the Golden content. I wanted to be done and it was too much to ask me to do another, even longer dungeon.

Zelda: The Wind Waker. I acknowledge it as a good game, but I just did not like sailing around.

Very recently, Age of Wonders 4. I really disliked the last story map and how many factions were running around.

Metal Gear Solid V. Reused missions in the second act, nuff said.

Final Fantasy 7, for some ridiculous reason. I’ve stared it so many times, then get distracted and stop, planning to come back, and then I forget.

Some some recent ones are Control and Pentiment. I got into both, then got distracted with other games and never got back to them.

I have such an issue with not finishing games that I really enjoy because I don't want them to end. I put off the final part for so longer that I stop playing the game. Never killed Ganon in BOTW, never actually finished Elden Ring

Alien Isolation. Its hard for me, is stressfull, and its so freaking long.

Outer Wilds. I'm stuck but I don't want to look up how to advance the story because of spoilers so every once and a while I fire it up and go explore but I've largely put it down. Should I go looking for what to do next?

I rarely finish games, the last game I did finish was bloodborne.

Even elden ring, one of my favorite games of all time, I haven’t finished yet.

Finishing a game is really rare for me, which is why I never understand people complaining about ‘not enough to do’ in games. There’s always way too much to do!

I’d appreciate shorter, well put together games than these 100+ hour slogs that games seem to be shooting for these days

Mafia 2. I decided to play the dlc before I beat the game because it technically took place during a time gap in the game but it made me loose interest completely even though I know the main game is really good

So many! Right now I'm chipping away at Persona 5 Royal, but also on my list are RDR2, Witcher 3, Divinity Original Sin 2, Elden Ring, Dragon Age Inquisition....I want to pick up Yakuza Like a Dragon and Diablo IV but it doesn't feel worth it yet since I don't have much time to play these days

Goin on like 30-something years with Battletoads now

I saw the original post the other day and it made me realize that I hadn't finished Mankind Divided.

Now I finished it and I feel hollow inside because it ends on a cliffhanger and there is no signs of a sequel. 😩

The majority of my steam library and more, so many pre steam games I played ended up not finished. Might be easier to list the finished.

I've started but never finished plenty of games but one always annoyed me till recently was factorio. I had over a hundred hours and I never even automated blue science.

Then a few months ago I said screw it, started a new save and over the course of 3 months and 150h I finally launched a satellite into space.

I am quite happy now that I did "beat" it but I'll probably revisit it soon, either to try improve my base or to play modded.

Doom Eternal - I played a few hours, was having a good time, but put it off to play something else and just never came back.

Atelier Sophie- always been interested in the Atelier series and finally bought one. I enjoy what I see when I play, but I'm constantly dropping it for something else, only to come back months later, play a little, then drop it again. It's a vicious cycle.

Divinity Original Sin 2- while I enjoy the game, it's so tedious to play that it wears me down every time I try to play it until I drop it.

Guild Wars 2- as much as I enjoy it, I keep thinking I could be playing FF14 instead, which I like more and have a hard time trying to come back to it.

Suikoden 1 and 3. My first exposure to the series was Suikoden 2 and I absolutely adored it.

Suikoden 3 was on the next Playstation console and the combination of not yet mature emulators and insufficient PC hardware made it too painfully slow to continue playing much past the first chapter of one character. On the other hand, getting the appropriate PlayStation console, a compatible TV screen and a physical copy of the game would have required braving the wilds of ebay and paying an exorbitant amount of money. I once checked for just the game itself when a flatmate had a PS3 or PS4, but the only offers I found were in triple digits dollars.

Suikoden 1 I got pretty far a bunch of times, but it's quite a long game and so far life interrupted before I was finished every time I picked it up again. By the time I would return to it, I'd have forgotten where I am in the story or lost the save.

Minecraft is another one, if finishing it is a thing. I just always burned off my interest in it before I reached a state where I was happy/satisfied with what I had achieved. Part of it is that I hate grinding but creative mode is simultaneously pointless and not powerful enough for me (creative inventory in particular).
