Finding it hard to stick with a game and see it through to the end.

| Got an Xbox One and have quite a large back-catologue. I find I install a game and play it for a bit to then never want to play it again. I feel like I've seen it all before and there's nothing that really stands out to me.

I always look for new or highly rated games, it all just seems a bit shit IMO.


| I feel the same with most AAA games nowadays tbh. I dunno why, it's not even some hipster shit, I tried Mass Effect 2 a while ago, and while I was left in complete awe with the story and lore, the gameplay was so fucking boring I ended giving up on it for the time being. That's the reason I usually stick with old games or lesser known games that focus much more on shorter length plots and a more simple but entertaining gameplay (Wuppo being a great example).


| Yeah I noticed that I can't stick with a game today. It feels like I wasted money because I don't actually finish it, but way before I used to complete games all the way through. I don't know... Maybe I'm just getting old


| I suffer from the same. I think it's really just a case of patience and discipline in selecting on have at a time and seeing it through. I think I had DOOM installed for over a year with only 2 hours of play time before a sat down and decided I want going to play anything else until I finished it.


| maybe try esports game? I myself stumbled into mobile moba, they are short like 15-25 minutes per game, but because youre playing with/against human there'll be randomness here and there to excite you and keep boredomness away


| I think its good to take breaks when playing a game. It gives you time to appreciate what you have played up to that point, and keeps the game from becoming monotonous

Just stop playing games for 2 or 3 months if you come back to video games then you actually like video games if you are the same then its time to look for a new hobby


| i've done this with Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen. Every time I start to take a whack at the game I fall off of it. I've never beaten it and I've tried playing through it 4 different times, falling off of it each time.


| People say the say thing about music too, that it's "all boring or bland". The truth is gaming has never been as good as it is now. There are indie games, retro games and new games that you can find what you are looking for with a little research. Also don't burn yourself out. Take a break every once in a while.
