Man, this video hits close to home for me. I have a huge backlog of games I haven’t even started yet (mostly from sales and/or impulse purchases [FOMO]), mainly because I know that once I do start a game, I’ll have to stay committed to it until I either finish it or reach a block. However, there have been times where I try to sit myself down and choose a game to start, and then decision fatigue kicks in until I eventually choose. But even then, there are times where I’ll close the game to finish a daily, and then get distracted by an old game (mainly Pokémon), then forget about the previous game. It’s a vicious cycle, but I’m trying to get better at it.

[@MajorCreepers]

[@JaceGarrdok]

My main gripe with gaming these days is not even a part from the games themselves. It's the fact that the internet moves at such breakneck speed, that you really have to avoid any and all places if you ever want to experience things for yourself before you get inevitably spoiled by others, thus completely sucking the motivation to continue out of you. It's hard to stay in your own speed when there's this constant fear that some nolifers chose to spoil the entire story of Fancy McRPG that just got released yesterday. And the saddest part is that the mentoned lack of attentionspan in modern day culture only enforces this behavior. I'm talking "Why waste 80 hours of my time when I can just read all I need in a single Twitter post?" level of laziness.

[@yggdrasilsaltar]

[@theimaginator8757]

@Don't Read My Profile Picture gæ

[@DTFauxClassic]

It doesn't work for everyone, but I've found that hunkering down into an experience is what's needed to get over a lot of mental hurdles. It's kinda like with any other type of work: The "getting started" part is ALWAYS the hardest part... but after an hour or two when you hit your flow, you're properly engaged. And even if you didn't necessarily have fun or enjoyed the experience, you at least feel good that you committed to something. Now, the exception to this idea is if trying to stick with something is making you absolutely miserable. If you're dreading returning to a game, or the story just... REALLY isn't doing anything for you, there's no shame in bailing from a game (or book/show/movie).

[@TheOneGuitarGuy]

Option Paralysis is very much a real thing. Too many options can completely make you freeze up. Also, a lot of what you've said lines up with like... many neurodivergent people. The idea of constantly moving on to the next thing that will make the dopamine spike.

Most unexpected collaboration ever. Great video to bring me back to my childhood games. Especially on the day before my birthday! Great video!

[@splatjam64]

Very interesting perspective on the backlog issue! My problem is that I really want to experience new games yet whenever I'm actually in the mood, I usually just pick up the same few games I've not only completed, but 100% completed so often that combining the amount of times it might legitimately be in the hundreds. I thought it was interesting you brought up Pizza Tower, because that's one of the main games I really want to beat. When I bought it in its first week, managed to unlock a few costumes, get some achievements, and got up to the 2nd world, but I haven't touched it since. I really enjoyed what I played and I really want to get to the final boss, but I never do. I want to break out of my shell and experience more games outside of the same few series of games, but I can never actually bring myself to play anything else for long.

Can totally relate to this problem, my backlog is so large I've lost track of it completely. I usually play round based games myself but what I like to do is pretty much a combination of round based games and the second method. I'll play some round based gamss for a bit at the end of the day and then I'll unwind before bed with a half an hour to an hour of a game with an ending. The only problem with this method is that I keep replaying older games and never playing the new ones

This was a very interesting video! I definitely know people like this.

Since no one but my wife and I really care what I'm playing, I just play whatever I want. This is how I enjoy playing.

[@GetMadz]

That’s a smart way to go with the 2 games at a time! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@CaptainObliviousV]

I understand the feeling well. My backlog has nearly tripled in size after buying before the 3DS Eshop closure. Thankfully I’m making steady progress, rotating between a few games, old and new, at a time. Right now it’s Splatoon 3, Yokai Watch 3, Kirby Triple Deluxe, and jumping on Pokémon Scarlet whenever there’s a raid event going on or if I feel like shiny hunting.

[@Fenyx_Birb]

Probably the reason you can never finish a game is just because there's just way too many games to play to begin with that it's hard to bring yourself to enjoy a game the whole way through Like if you had 10 videogames vs 1 videogames, which scenario do you think would you would more easily finish a whole game.

[@potatoemporer2174]

[@Hope_Upstairs]

I always spend a lot of time picking what game I should play next until I just give up and play nothing, or replay a random game on my Megadrive. This video inspired me to make an app that picks a random game from my library each day, so that I no longer have to choose.

[@legion4te]

The collab we all needed. Thank you guys!!

[@funloop]

I saw, as you pointed out, it depends on the genre of the game. Single player games: when you finish the main story multiplayer games don't have an end, same with party games MMORPGs also don't have an end since the game is updated constantly lifesim games also don't have an end, unless the game gives you an overarching task to complete (Animal Crossing and paying off your debt) As for achievements, I see them as an added bonus that is not required to beat a game.

[@tglamorousgaming3498]

Not gonna lie this motivated me to finish some of my old games.. I can admit that reasons I don’t know of stop me from playing games from months on end, I thought it was just little motivation to play but when I played with friends it was fun again. Nowadays I barely have fun playing a game by myself, after my hyper fixation ends I slowly spend less and less time playing it.

[@AutumnRivers]

I think live service games are considered finished whenever you completed your "main objective," my main objective in BTD6 was to finish a map in CHIMPS. I did that, but I still come back to play it from time to time. Multiplayer games are never finished, and they're really only there to play with friends, it's not meant to be finished, just meant to be fun

[@Lady_ETHNE]

Honestly, I relate to this video a lot. There's a small handful of games I need to finish (Fire Emblem 3 houses, Shantae 1/2 Genie Hero, Bendy and the Dark Revival, etc.) but I just haven't had the motivation/time to, so I find myself falling back into games I've probably put more than enough time into (like Genshin Impact, Project Mirai, or Animal Crossing). When I have the motivation to play a game however, it hits HARD. Just recently, I took a Link between words with me to a convention and finished replaying the game in a weekend.

[@captainyasopp154]

This is how I felt with prey I don't think I ever enjoyed a game quite like that game and then I finished it and I felt empty it was super lame and I have no urge to go back to it cause it just won't be the same.

[@mrlampy]

it’s unfortunate that many games don’t have replayability, once you’ve gotten the credits to roll there’s no real reason to go over it again besides completion, but other than that you’ve finished the story, seen the sights and are all out of a fresh experience

[@Lulink013]

I have several games started that I want to go back to and know I will still enjoy whenever I do, but no urge to rush to get to them. I simply need to pay attention to how I'm feeling today and pick the game to continue accordingly. Doesn't matter if I only feel like playing a point and click once in a blue moon as long as I remember where I stopped last time.

[@harrrisondesmangles8420]

I just noticed that when you play a creation game (dreams, fall guys, elc.) You basically choose what style of gameplay you want, if you want a unbalanced bean falling left and right, or mabey a red ragdoll walking up to a blue one and killing it, THATS WHAT I RELISED RIGHT NOW

[@CharacterDesignForge]

To an absolute T, Solidarity my friend. I think that self-employed overworked content creator aspect might have something to do with it ;) The extra guilt for playing that one hour at a time you get free can't be helpful for us.

I hear you about the backlog. As a gamer for 40 years now, I'm a fan of so many decades-old series that I feel a need to play every game of, even the spin-offs. But in the past few years it's just been impossible to do it. At least I'm never bored. I'll never understand how people say "there isn't much to play on Nintendo platforms" when I can see that alone can keep me busy (even though I am a multiplatform gamer). I also don't understand how it's said that kids have poor attention span, but they can play a SINGLE game like Minecraft or Overwatch or Fortnite for literally years, when I would personally rather finish 100 different games in the same amount of time. And I'm a completionist, too!

I struggle with motivation a lot of the time, whether it's because of low mood or procrastination, or even just too many things to do but unable to do them all at once. I have things I NEED to do like do my volunteering, walking my dog, eat, sleep, bathe, talk to family and friends. Then there's the things I WANT to do, watch anime/cartoons, check up on KZbin videos, work on my own KZbin channel, play video games, hang out with friends, find my path in life, etc. Everyday I don't do things I want, or unable to do the things I need to dovfeels like I'm wasting my life doing nothing. Most of the time it's, "Okay, I'm gonna do this today, then do that", but I just end up not doing them through lack of motivation. Point of this is, if you want to do something, go for it. We only get one life, so enjoy the things you enjoy whether they are small or big because it'll make you feel fulfilled in the sense that YOU did something YOU wanted to do and gaining a new expirence from it.

Havent watched the video yet but I love pokemon legends arceus, its my favorite game, I completed it, and (spoilers) after I defeated Volo and Giratina, I had to complete the pokedex to meet and fight Arceus, and so I did, 100% game, I shiny hunted for a while but theres no story or anything to do other than shiny hunt after you beat the game. Sure, theres side missions, but those missions are just random NPCs asking for help or needing a favor. And the story for legends arceus is amazing. I wish we got more story, or DLC, because we never learned of Volo’s backstory, at the Giratina statue before the final fight, he says things along the lines of “why must life be so unfair..” or something like that, and I wish we get more content in legends arceus after you catch Arceus and 100% the game.

Story of my life right here. Most relatable is at 2:57

[@adiveler]

My way to go is: When I'm starting to feel a little bored with the game I'm currently playing, I take a break from that game. And then, when I build up eagerness for some more, I come back to that game and play a little more. That way, despite my attention problem, I reach the end of most game's campaigns while keeping them fun for me.

I might not have it quite as bad, but I can completely relate to this problem. Here's what I would do: buy a new game only if you think you'd love it, not cause it's revelant. Nothing will happen if you don't get it! Or play your favourite games of all time again

I haven’t had a video describe how I feel about playing video games this well. Thank you for this and happy belated birthday!!! Great video and really great script, glad you could get your thoughts out and you did a fantastic job!!

[@GetMadz]

Thank you so much for the very kind words!

The longest game I had in my backlog (which isn’t a lot) was Overcooked 2. Have you tried playing that game by yourself? 3:02 I also counted how many games he showed in his backlog… 62 And A Hat in Time came out in 2017!

3:03 You know things are getting real when games started falling from above and spontaneously appearing within the confines of your living room to the song “Swordplay Showdown” from Wii Sport Resort

2:42 I am currently doing this with persona 5

My problem is that I buy games and then I don’t really play them not because I don’t enjoy them but because when I’m bored the first thing I do is watching KZbin, so then I waste too much time on KZbin and I end up not playing the games I bought

[@summerycast7936]

Same here! Honestly, KZbin is pretty addicting. Once you are subscribed to lots of channels, there never seems to be an end for watching. You have to pry yourself away from it. I used to be addicted to videogames when I was a kid, but now KZbin has become my new addiction. Help~

Is outer wilds part of the madness, because I know it’s likely part of most madness. Hahah, I love this video your animation style is always super comforting, and the narration you do is absolutely amazing.

[@GetMadz]

Glad you enjoyed it!
