How often are you completing games?

About 2-5 games a month at this rate I should be finished with my back log in about 5-9 years.

BIggest issue is I beat 2-5 games a month and get 1-3 new games per month almost. They need to quit releasing new epic titles.
 
I just play beaten parasite eve 2 yesterday day so a week worth of playing.

I'm quite strict when it comes to finishing games THERE IS NO DISTRACTIONS And nothing that stops me from finishing a game i already picked up it's a must i SHOULD get to the end i have to finish the journey i cant leave half way through it's either me or the game
 
My trend for playing games these days go like this: hyperfixate for up to a week -> dwindle down and play other stuff too, alongside it -> get bored or burned out, don't play for weeks to months -> come back, buckle down and either finish it or make serious progress.

Rinse and repeat till I either beat the main story or campaign (and any completionist stuff I wanna do), quit temporarily and probably delete my file, or drop the game 100%. My game-completing is probably like my book-completing: maybe one or two a year? And it depends on the game and its length, really.

If I had to guess from my Games I've Played text document, chronicling every game I remember playing? I think I've beaten maybe 25~30% of games I've ever played. And maybe 10~15% are games I never wanna play again, while 30% are games that I don't feel I need to beat, or can't (arcade games, et cetera).
 
My 100% completionist autism used to be really bad, I'd pick short games just so I could check my made up list of cleared games, it got even worse when they invented cheevos and trophies. Thankfully nowadays it's far easier for me to drop a game and I don't even care about trophies anymore. That said, sometimes I still get withdrawal and think about picking up that one game just to "tick the 100% box" but it usually goes away 2-3 days later ::winkfelix
 
Always. It's a curse, well an OCD. I usually don't choose what game to start, it's random or by other people, then I have to finish it and complete it 100% (or all the things I can possibly know if it's a very rare and obscure game). I can't play any other game from that platform, but I can play another game from another platform meanwhile if I get too crazy lol.

I don't consider achivements as 100%, even if they are native for the game, because I can or can't agree of what they request or consider what is a feat. My 100% is standard from old school, level up to the max, get all skills, all possible items, all sidequests, etc.

Also, if the game requires to be too skilled for going through I use cheats, because I don't like games that put you into a learning curve, that's a waste of time for me. I don't feel proud of beating something high difficulty, because I only count how much time I wasted doing something when I could have being doing something else, or playing another game.

With this approach, I have beaten 10-15 games a year (mostly PS1 games, because that's the generation I'm in right now).
 
I make my best effort to finish a game and sometimes to 100% a game but if I'm not enjoying the game anymore I will move on to a different one.
