When you build a library of games it eventually becomes very hard to play all of them. Some want to play all of them but you also want to reply older ones as well.In this video, I go over how I try to get around this obstacle

I know I sound like a broken record here but if you like RPG's and you want a good Modern day one? You need to pick up Dragon Quest XI and or Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant King on the PS4 or the Switch. They are both Excellent beautiful RPG's. Dragon XI is one of the best RPGS ever made bare minimum at least in the last two console generations. I agree about Man of Medan too. It was too short and wasn't as good as Until Dawn Imo.

Just some random Chef yeah like others have said I’ll sit down to play a game and start browsing my library, can’t make a decision, maybe watch a KZbin video for some inspiration, still not decide and will have lost like a couple hours lol. One thing I’ve done is itemize my whole library of games (about 850) on a website like backloggery.com. They have a feature on there called fortune cookie, when I can’t decide I will set some parameters like what system I feel like playing, if it’s a game I haven’t played yet or one I’ve been working on finishing, select open fortune cookie and play whatever it gives me

Totally agree Reggie, as our time is limited, the choice of games to play becomes vitally important. My decision is shaped by four criteria: 1) GOTY worthiness, 2) nostalgia/classic factor, 3) personal preferences and 4) time required to beat (shorter is generally better, if 50+ hours, the game HAS to be a masterpiece). I'm extremely picky and go only for games that tick most of these boxes, that way I know my time is well invested.

The one thing that puts me off a game is the word “GRIND”. I have big games like Persona 5 and Witcher 3 but haven’t even started them. I’m 42 with a full time job, wife and kids. When I was younger i would play a game on the second hardest level first then headrest level for second play though just to get my money’s worth. Now it’s started on default level and move on. The backlog is real. I’m hoping for more shorter games in future like “a plague tale innocent” I can’t be the only old timer that enjoys shorter story driven games.

Thankfully, with the games I like to play Far Cry 5, Horizon Zero Dawn, you can save as you go along and pretty much start back from where you last saved. That has saved my gaming life. Some of these games take me weeks to months to finish because of responsibilities and I'm a completionist. I spend a lot of money on these games and I want to get my money's worth. Pick the game genre you enjoy and do the research on the game and choose the game wisely. Be good!

I feel that in some ways we have a similar pattern. We buy games we want to play. This is totally me. When something catches my eye and I want to have that experience I buy it. Most of the time this is fine and I feel ok about going through my library to choose the next game to play. Sometimes I get overwhelmed when a whole bunch of games come out at the same time that I want to beat and games that I want to play continue to release. I have very little self control when it comes to picking and choosing between a whole bunch of games I want to play. I hope that I can get to all the games that I have at some point. In my head that if games ever go completely digital, that may be the time I stops buying new releases and just start hitting my backlog.

I know personally I can't even keep up with the new releases and realistically I'll never even have time to play through my Steam collection, let alone every console game.

I play Call of Duty online 2 or 3 times a month because it's easy to pickup & play for 30 to 45 mins then head off to bed.

You are absolutely correct Reggie, as a kid I used to play 5 or more hours a day, now as an adult I only play from 1 to 2 hours but not everyday. I'm quite fine with that because I'm busy doing other things. Either I'm working or spending time with my girl watching Netflix. I do buy a lot of video games but most of the time when I start a game I try to finish it. Right now I'm play Destroy all Humans 2 and I'm enjoying the heck out of it.

I sometimes get frustrated cause I don't get in the mood for certain games at certain moments. It seems that depending on what season it is my gaming habits change so I learned to ease up on putting too much pressure on myself. Having a library of games to choose from just makes the fruit of the gaming hobby more richer and fulfilling.

Finding time to play video games is one of my biggest problems. I just keep buying games I would enjoy, and they sit on my shelf sealed until I have time. I used to play a lot of RPGs, but now I focus on shorter games.

Another issue I have is games have so much more content it just takes so much longer to beat them, and that makes finding time even more of challenge. I have friends who will get a game and then claim to beat it in under a week and I’m like “how?” Besides that if payed $60-$100 on a game and could complete it in a few days I’d feel like I didn’t get my money’s worth

I work about 60 hrs a week, trying to start my own company, and art, and still play games lol. It’s difficult especially with different time variables for games to truly enjoy or embrace. I agree with buying what you like, genre, or what you have already completed. Always good to play a favorite.

I have actually gotten better in the past year or two about buying only one or two games a year at release. I bought Sekiro day one to play with a friend and I am buying Borderlands 3 day one to play with that same friend. I have a backlog of somewhere around 400 games to play but most of my backlog is stuff I got for free through Twitch Prime, Epic Game Store, Playstation Plus and the rare free game through Humble Bundle, Steam or GOG. Out of my entire backlog, I'd say I have about 100 must play games that I will be trying to prioritize over the next few years to get back on track. Here's hoping.

I jump from system to system and sometimes get caught up trying to beat a game because the story or gameplay really draws you in... then like you said, you’re trying to do the adult thing and get side tracked. The struggle is real.

Agreed it does get to be a thing when you have so many games you don't know when you'll get to them, definitely have to get more selective with the mass amount of games released now. Also the thing about watching some playthroughs instead of buying the game is pretty enjoyable for certain games

Every game i buy, i want to play, beat, and know that its right their for me to replay if i want to play again. Their some RPGs that left impression and shaped younger me, that made me a better person that i am today. I am proud to own since my childhood. I am looking at you Legend of Dragoon, Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy Tactics, monster hunter, shin megami tensei, resident evil 2, and demon souls. =p (edited forgot to add Final Fantasy Tactics, that game is a rollercoaster of emotions.]

Short answer: No, I do not have enough time. I have a crazy backlog, not to mention the stuff in my collection that I will never get to. I find myself having to cut into my sleep, either late nights when the fam is asleep or early mornings on the weekends. That’s my dedicated time

You know as sad as I am that things are going towards digital-only, a part of me can’t wait, so I can give up on buying new games and play my backlog. I work for a living, and if I never bought another game I could never play all the games I have. I’m kind of disgusted with this collector I’ve become!

I used to work 80+ hours a week and still had time for gaming every night, now I only work 40 a week and feel like I have so little time. For me currently, it's a struggle trying to balance my time on my days off between catching up on my housework, relaxing and spending time with my gf and her children. In the end I don't have much time for me in general. I keep collecting because I'm sure I'll eventually be able to play again, and I don't want to miss out on getting certain games before their value becomes too restrictive.

Yes, this is an issue that seems to always be a work in progress. 80 percent of my games are of the 2D action or arcade racing variety. Most of them aren't terribly time consuming and gratify quickly. This relieves matters for me, but time is precious and real life happens.
Do you play every game you own in your collection ?
