StaceyPowers Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 If you have a pile of games waiting for you that are all going to take many months to complete and you have one open slot in your gaming schedule, how do you pick which game to play next?

killamch89 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Honestly, it's an extremely complicated process - I just flip a coin several times and after countless eliminations, I choose a game. I'm just kidding by the way but it depends on what game interest me and if the reviews are good, then I go play it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 I don't choose games or levels to play next, I go by random which the game opens up for me in order to allow it appear more realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin11 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 I always have a game on my mind to play before going on playing it. I don't select randomly, and most of the games I have are placed periodically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, i am.talking about following the game levels just as they were set and not skipping the game too fast simply to reach its ending point.

Justin11 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 I play games due to the feelings I have at the moment. I can decide going to any option provided that I have the feeling or interest of playing it that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oblivion Knight Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I try not to think about it too much, because otherwise I wouldn't end up playing any of them.. 😆 The moment I feel like firing up a new game, I just try to glance at my backlog and hope that something catches my eye.

m76 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I often lack motivation to play games from my backlog. Whenever I start playing something it is entirely on a whim, no thought goes into it, just that at that moment I found some motivation to start a certain game. It could be for a number of reasons, like a new mod was released that makes the game more appealing, or simply someone mentioned the game somewhere, or most of the time for no reason at all.

Empire Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I watch a lot of gaming content on Youtube (reviews, critiques, game design talks), so sometimes I'll watch videos on a game I have on my backlog. This'll help me get a better idea of what to expect, maybe clue me into the historical or industry significance of the game, and generally hype me up for the experience, since watching gameplay naturally makes me want to try it out for myself.

Boblee Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Sometimes, I do it randomly and it works for me most of the time. Then again, I do by recommendation from a very close friend I can take his or her word on the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always hold the game on my kind to play, I simply go for the option that tickles my attention at that moment, and not random choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boblee Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 The reason I love playing with recommendation is that it offers me a full time satisfaction knowing that the gamer who recommended it already played and enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recommendations that comes through showing off the video game trailer is the best recommendations for me through the help of the reviewers.

Justin11 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Since I can spend quite some couple of minutes playing video games due to some online assignments, I simply use 20-30 mins to enjoy the ride around MGP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
