Okay Fellas what Games did you never Finishes that are collecting Dust on your Shelf quietly Judging you every time you see it.So like games that you may want to continue one day but forgot every kind of Skill regarding that game and you where very far into the Game and are pretty sure that the Enemies would clean the floor with you if you would continue after such a long time.So what are your gaming regrets so to say ;).
 
For me its:
Resident Evil 4 (ps2) directly before a Major boss that drove me mad.
Tales of Grace F Ps3
and more
I also still need to finish Dead Space 1
Ni no Kuni
Sakuna Tales of Rice and Ruin
but I lost all knowledge of the Gameplay besides Dead Space 1.

Great thanks for the Reminder I also need to finish them on the Ps4 as I bought the Collection of the Hack Game Series.
 
Breath of Fire
elder scrolls 3
What you never finished Elder Scrolls 3 Shame one......well I did not even finish it myself Ha Ha ::surprised-pikachuWell I want to give it a change its just the Navigation and the Combat ain't doing it for me.
 
Hmm I actually intentionally don't play certain games that I have fun a lot to avoid finishing them too quickly so much I may play some games for years. In this context:

1) I paused playing Kaido Racer 1 for too long, I think it's been like 6 months since the last time I played it. The bad thing is it's a rather hard car drifting game out of Initial D kind of racing therefore every time I have to play the game after a long time of pause I always have to re-train myself so I won't lose races, it's that kind of game for me. For example I don't play Auto Modellista often too but that game has a thing for once you learn it you are good to go kind of game.

2) Just because turn-based games tend to make me so bored I give long pauses until I'm in "turn-based game mood" again therefore I think it's been like 2 years since I played Metal Saga. I honestly don't remember where I'm in the game at all lol. When this happens it makes you don't wanna play the game too especially because you wouldn't wanna bother trying to check what you did before and what is left to do.

3) My relationship with Airforce Delta Strike is complicated. Military jet games are not my thing but I wanna finish it... someday lol. The only same genre game I played was Ace Combat 3 but Airforce Delta Strike is way harder for me than AC3 so it make me wanna turn off playing the game every time I fail the same long ass mission lol.

4) Rage 2 became a game for me that I rarely continue playing and instead of continuing with main missions I just mindlessly kill people and turn off the game after like half an hour. I don't even remember what kind of story the game had at all. I just enjoy how cool it is to kill people with this gun lol:

 
Witcher 3 is probably the worst. Sword & Fairy 7 is one I really want to finish but my Steam Deck can't run it on SteamOS or on Windows. I need to finish Driver: Parallel Lines and Mad Max too.
 
Witcher 3 is probably the worst.
hmmmm.jpg

lolol
I need to finish Driver: Parallel Lines
It's so immersive when you pause the game at a certain point in the game for 28 years lolol.

I tried to finish it but the game finished me lolol. It has a ridiculous amount of side content that chokes you down. It made me mad!!! lol

I normally finish side contents first especially as a way to upgrade my character and all before I start the main mission but the game felt like eating a horse lol. It felt worse than completing side content of Ubisoft games and honestly main mission of Mad Max felt like side content too lol.
 
Ghosts of Tsushima. And it has nothing to do with the game itself, more so just poor timing. I picked it up to kill time before a certain remake dropped last year and I was absolutely loving the game. Then Silent Hill 2 Remake dropped and I haven't gone back. It's such a good game but I feel like I'll need to relearn a bunch of mechanics and that's kind of stopping me from picking it back up.

I also picked up that Avatar game on sale cause I thought it looked neat, and it was, but I lost interest since I dont really care about the movies at all, it just seemed like a really pretty Far Cry clone. That said, I'd at least like to put some more time into it eventually
 
GTA 3, back in 2001 I got 99% and all I have left is 1 single side mission on a car park roof. I still remember it clearly - and haven't played it since, it's just teased me for two decades+

Losing the skills? Definitely Bionic Commando reboot on PS3 - I was expecting trash, but it hooked me in for months. Going for 100% perfect every level and made it deep, deep, into the game. Then life got in the way and far too much time passed. I'd need to play it again to re-learn the skills I would need to finish it. The controls are really, really (ridiculously!) precise. Upset I never did finish it though, once you get the hang of the mechanics, it flows so smoothly. It really surprised me how good it was. Maybe one day I'll go back to it, I hope so.

Jet Set Radio Future also circa 2001 or 2002, memory is fuzzy. Made it to the final boss and the game glitched so my save is in a place I can't get out of. I think that's it, it's along those lines. I think the boss' energy was almost zero as well. I wasn't going to play that all the way through again (as much as Ioved it) It's a nasty glitch, that's for sure. It was the Japanese version. In this instance I just lie to myself and say I finished it. I was practically there...

If you paid for these yep you are a horrible person lol because it means you have fallen for their scam methods to sell you games by making it look like it would be worth to pay but you only understand they are actually rubbish when you play more than 2 hours that will be enough for you to never buy from them. The bad thing is video game industry turned into this BS just to make the sell, not to actually play the game anymore. As a result people like to buy games instead of actually playing them, then when people actually wanna play new games there is literally no "okay" game to actually play because most of them are empty trash after 2 hours of game play so you cannot refund them.
 
Yeah, I am refering about the ones I've bought. But the reason is different in my case: time.

Every single game I buy I look info on the internet before about the gameplay, if I like it I buy it, regardless I have the console or not, or I plan to play it now or in 10 years. Why? because physical games are finite and I don't buy digital crap.

The good side is that, if I end not liking the game, there are high chances I could recover the money, but unfortunatelly for me, my OCD does not allow me to sell any of them. A game I buy is a game I will keep until I die. That's something it may be absurd or nonsense for many people, but for me in my head makes all the sense lol.

But you are right, it's about consumism, but I can't stop playing a game after 2 hours even if the game is bad because OCD calls. I sometimes take really care what game I start playing, or just prepare myself mentally to embrace the pain, as usually games I play are being chosen by friends. My life is a raffle :S

NOTE: But it's fun! :D

I did joke about you being a horrible person but I gotta say you are the person who would finish the game you bought so it seriously means you are not a horrible person then!!! lol. But I do respect people who don't waste their money. It shows a great character!!!

I do relate with a difference: If I paid for the game I do whatever it takes to finish it at least because otherwise it would feel like I wasted my money. But our difference is I value my time over my money because I can always make money but you cannot get back the time you lost. That's why when I determine the game is really so shit I shouldn't keep playing because what's the point of a game if you really don't have fun, innit? So my tradition is throwing the game out of the window when it's that shitty enough to make me stop continuing it lolol.

This tradition started due to the house I grew up in. Imagine a house that has a wide open vista towards a railroad so I invented a game of throwing a video game to the farthest possible place. My dream was throwing a game over the fartest wall of the railroad but I never could lol. It was harder to throw Sega Genesis games for example but disc technology made it more fun!!!! lol

In my own way I only keep worthy ones for my "perfect collection". It's good because when I have to move my place it will ease the whole process so I won't have to suffer trying hard to even move unworthy games lol.

Well, your way is really pragmatic as money can't buy time. But you know, when I was a little kid I saw some people living and sleeping on the street and I got paranoid to avoid that at all costs, because if I were in that situation my time would be worth less than a dog's poop :(.

So, I started to priorize money over time when I had the age to have a job and save for my future, taking 2 jobs and working Monday to Sunday. I don't care about dying tomorrow, my money can end under the sea or for the videogames preservation, but I do care about keep living without money. In my city lots of youngsters in their late 20's and early 30's either live with their parents or rent a room in a shared place with strangers, I could never do that because I am too picky, that's why I had to work hard during years to end living alone in my own apartment.

That's why spending money in something that can't be sold is a contradiction for me and I avoid it at all costs. One of the reasons why digital stuff isn't compatible with me, unless what I buy is a really huge deal, and even so I hesitate a lot.

You are a smart person!!! It's really wise to buy an item you can sell for just in case. When you need newer version of it you can sell the old and thus reduce the cost of buying the newer one. When you are short in cash thus you can sell the physical stuff. This is often a necessary investment that people better do by not just limiting themselves to buying gold and stocks!!!

As for me *naruto flute moment lol* when I was 4 years old the way I was not allowed to watch a theatre play during pre-school because "your mother didn't pay for it" was a shocking realization that this usually sweet woman of a teacher turned into a monster just because we didn't pay for the damn theatre play so I sat alone until the damn play was over. It made kid me realized "you are nothing without money" so I always valued making money a lot so I started saving money lol (dude it's not that a little kid usually have any way to get money anyway).

When I was a kid we were economically okay but we have no culture of parents give pocket money to kids but family relatives may give you money if they are in good mood but it's rare. Our mentality is "do it yourself if you want it" so mainly to get video games I started working when I was 11. Then government changed and therefore economy fucked. Despite my mother worked in hospital as a big deal medical personnel it wasn't enough to make a living as a single parent, hell even is multiple parent lol. So when I was 12 I was paying the bills because my mother's pay was barely enough for rent despite it was already the cheapest possible. Due to government changed, the prices of everything increased so hard because it wasn't the president "rich people" wanted so rich people wanted to suck dry economy before they bail out the country or expect government to make country collapse so they would need money to survive the collapse. However personally it was only bothersome that it got harder to buy games so I found ways to get extra money. NGL I also did illegal shit but my actions didn't really cause any harm whatsoever, even if it was I wouldn't care. I worked in many jobs as a result just for my love for video games!!! I can write a book with my CV from many jobs in different countries and this is the most serious sentence you'll ever read from me. I cleaned the damn drainage system of a military base to I worked for a company to save them from bankruptcy due to their own greedy business fail. They didn't learn so they failed hard after I saved them anyway lol. I'm like water, I find any way to make money and it would take shorter to mention what jobs I didn't do lol.

So for past few years I gone beyond of buying simple stuff I can sell later. I strategically buy lands to sell them for expensive prices by using basic psychology and understanding of how culture in my country works. Make enough money and you'll see lands matters a lot especially these days lol.
