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.
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...
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.
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.
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
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
without spoiling to much it seems that both Layla in modern day and kassandra in Odyssey are really ultra major character in AC canon now. My motivation to end this game come from both wanting to find out why they have became that important to the overhaul story arc and how layla managed to do what I was spoiled in Valhalla (which is the motivation for me to play and end this RPG trilogy). So I'm less in the intention to 100% the games and more in a form of rush to end odyssey and valhalla before I get spoiled again with what can be a truly genious idea modern story arc.
GRIS. Such a wonderful experience, that I highly recommend to anyone
the last of us part 1 and the dlc left behind :)
Couldn't help replaying after the tv series reignited my love for it!
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.
Loved undertake honestly Toby did an insane job on that game,
personally I cant do the other two endings lol
Probably halo reach
Not sure if you ever really "beat" Hades, but I recently started beating it again (and again and again) as I'm getting hype for the sequel.
Super Mario 3D World! The last few levels of it are a major difficulty spike, but I got through them!
Now I just have to beat every level again 4 times...
Kingdom Come: Deliverance. And I did beat, bonked so many bandits & Cumans with my mace. I love cracking their head
Senuas' Sacrifice. Absolutely great game and one of a handful that I have completed. Which is a bad record seeing as I've been gaming on computers since the late 80's 🤣
Mirror's Edge Catalyst. It was my second playthrough, and it was so much better now that my computer can handle the poorly optimized cutscenes player. I love that game.
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.
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.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Fun game, though unlike the first one, I wasn't immediately excited to keep playing for some reason.
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 fight feel like playing it anymore...
XCOM 2.
It was fine, but a buggy mess.
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.
Red Dead Redemption was the last game I beat, about 3 weeks ago. Currently playing Diablo 4, Tears of the Kingdom, and Marvel Snap.
The outer worlds, though I sorta skipped some of the dlc.
ha, the last game i beat is outer wilds
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.
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
The Case of the Golden Idol. Incredible game, short as well. Such a satisfying story to solve. If you want to play a game that scratches a similar itch to The Return of the Ones Dinn, this can do that.
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.
Last new game: Hogwarts Legacy
Last game period, Mario Odyssey again, I've been watching a lot of speedrun videos and thought "yeah I can do that" but it turns out that no, I cannot do that - finished in about 3 hours, serious props to people who can do it in less time!
Hardspace Shipbreakers. Damn the ending was a rollercoaster but super satisfying.
Pokemon Red++. Was a fun ROM Hack that just added a ton of QoL. Last original game though? Probably Scarlet Nexus.
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.
