That's why almost only play indie games (AAA once in a blue moon), they're short, sweet, artistic, great stories and I can finish them in a few hours! I finished Kentucky Route Zero the other day.

Mass Effect 1 a few weeks ago. Never played it before and really enjoyed it, but eventually got sick of side quests.
Started ME2, but decided to put it down for a bit so I don’t burn out.
ME series is my absolute favorite! Hope you have fun with ME2, it’s a blast.
Just actually beat Minecraft for the first time solo after playing off and on since beta...
No idea why I hadn't gotten around to it tbh
Also before that I put a bunch of time into Far Cry 6, which was solid.
I mean, I know why I haven't yet in spite of also having played the game since beta.
... It's because I'm lazy and hate grinding for materials.
Building is just more fun and who needs to free the end anyway
XCOM 2.
It was fine, but a buggy mess.
True Pacifist Undertale just the other day. Which, to be fair, took me something like two years to get around to doing because I was way too lazy to deal with some of the ending fights of Neutral route.
Now I have the itch to go back and play EarthBound again... Which may be related to the lo-fi Mother 2 mix that got posted earlier today over in the Music community.
Assassin's Creed Origins in a marathon to end Origins/Odyssey/Valhalla in preparation for Mirage (I have been spoiled about a major modern day spoiler that makes me hype again for the modern day story in the franchise and by extension I'm once again hype for the franchise after years without playing the games because of modern day story deception)
😵 I cant even finish odyssey a marathon sounds evil
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Fun game, though unlike the first one, I wasn't immediately excited to keep playing for some reason.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance. And I did beat, bonked so many bandits & Cumans with my mace. I love cracking their head
The last of us Part 1 PC.
Is it running well now? I know it has some launch issues.
Yes much better, with the latest patch they even have it running at 30fps on Steamdeck. I have a RTX 2080 and i7-8700k and it runs excellent at 1080p, good at 1440p and passable with dlss at 4k
Breath of the Wild. I got interested in the lead up to Tears of the Kingdom coming out. Finished it the day before. Still haven't started tears though...
most recent games that I beat were Batman Arkham knight and mario sunshine- I played the other Arkham games when they originally released but never had a PS4 when Arkham knight came out so I was only able to pick it up recently (yo ho).
Mario sunshine I had on my switch is part of the 3-D All-Stars collection and it was pretty good. I had gotten very frustrated with the slippery controls as I started playing but as I continue to playing it got more intuitive and the game killed me less and less.
i've been continuing the Mario kick I playing New Super Mario Bros Wii, and I downloaded Mario galaxy one to play on a dolphin emulator (looks, runs, and feels better than the switch version)
Assassin's creed Origins was the last one I completed. Assassin's creed odyssey I was almost done with the main story and most side quests from the base game (was trying for 100%) but I lost my save somehow after formatting my pc. So I kinda don't feel like playing it anymore...
The most recently purchased game that I beat (aside from multiplayer only stuff like Deep Rock Galactic) would be Black Mesa. Motivation to see the overhaul of xen at the end of the game really kept me going.
I recently beat Fallout 1 again, but I was using a high intelligence, high luck gambing critical hit sniper so it was more like an experiment to break the game. I'm in the middle of a 1 intelligence playthrough and its challenging but becoming a bit routine now that I've overcome early hurdles.
I just finished playing Resident Evil 4 remake for the first time and I'm gonna hop back in when I have the time
Last credits I saw was Mass Effect 1 (legendary edition on gamepass), last 100%ed was Psychonauts 2
System Shock remake. Awesome game with no hand-holding, really interesting to play.
Last game i beat that I could say is close to no hand holding is "the witness" my brain hurt for a while after one of the areas
the last of us part 1 and the dlc left behind :)
Couldn't help replaying after the tv series reignited my love for it!
I remember when last of us came out it was great :D
Dragon age inquisition. Due to a lack of time I also do not often finish games anymore.
The outer worlds, though I sorta skipped some of the dlc.
ha, the last game i beat is outer wilds
Horizon Zero Dawn. I went long stretches of not playing so it took me over a year to play through it. I enjoyed it a lot! Very cool story and Aloy is a great character.
GRIS. Such a wonderful experience, that I highly recommend to anyone
I just beat Kirby Mass Attack a few days ago. I went on a Kirby kick this year and knocked out Forgotten Land, Canvas Curse, Super Star Ultra, and Nightmare in Dreamland as well.
Red Dead Redemption was the last game I beat, about 3 weeks ago. Currently playing Diablo 4, Tears of the Kingdom, and Marvel Snap.
Still trying to finish Persona 5 Royale. Main game was so fun but I'm having a hard time with the Royale content. It's just not as fun.
BotW. After 5 years of trying!
embarrassed to say it's Skyrim, well over a decade ago. I don't often beat games, as whenever my attention gets brought away to another thing, i want to start it over and try something different.
Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
Don't often finish games these days. Usually burn out on them.
Just finished Coffee Talk 2 last night, but I know I didn't get all of the best endings. I enjoyed it very much, but I just don't have the time to go back and replay for the best endings. Too many other games to play!
Gato Roboto was the last one I finished, and it was pretty cute! I had started it ages ago and then wrapped it up right after finishing Metroid Dread (again), just to try and finish a few games before Zelda came out.
BOTW last year lol
I have a tendency to hop from game to game as I get new ones on sale. Typically for me to beat them, they either need to happen to be bought worth no other new games being bought for a while after, be short enough to burn through in a few days, or need to be beaten to I can interact with other people regarding the game.
I think the last game I beat was Pokemon Scarlet, which I had to beat so I could do the raids.
I have this annoying tendancy where I get near to the end of a game and just stop playing, ive done it 5 fucking times in fallout 4
Same. And then when I get back to a game I have no idea what I eat doing and forgot most of the controls and feel to lazy to learn them again. So I just go play something else and the cycle repeats itself.
That's me with Final Fantasy games. When I get to the last act, I, for some reason, just lose interest no matter how much I love it.
RDR2. Took me 3 years since I got a child shortly after beginning. The only one that I completed in the meantime was untitled goose game. Otherwise I have just played around in BeamNG or another racing game for a short while at a time.
Budget Cuts Ultimate. It was a first playthrough since I never played the original release. I liked the story and that they combined both Budget Cuts 1&2 so it felt like a full game. I tend not to finish games unless I get hooked so it was nice to finally complete one. I also don't replay games once I beat the main story so I've been running around Zelda Totk avoiding the final battle lol.
