StaceyPowers Posted July 13, 2024 Share Posted July 13, 2024 Have you played any games where you dreaded reaching the end so much you deliberately put off finishing for weeks or months? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyorAlice Posted July 16, 2024 Share Posted July 16, 2024 I don't think I've ever dreaded putting off finishing a game. I think that I was sad when I finally beat Hogwarts Legacy last year. There were so much I liked about that game that I didn't want it to end. But I didn't dread it coming to an end......just a little sad that I had finally beat it.

In that situation , It's a kind of bittersweet feeling. Don't you think so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortie Posted July 17, 2024 Share Posted July 17, 2024 I can't say there has ever been a game I have put off finishing because I have dreaded the outcome when it ends, I have always played all games through to the end on a first play and not left it without completing. There have been games I have gotten bored of and haven't finished and gone back to weeks or months later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still wanted to keep playing....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Personally, I do think that it's a sign of a truly great game, when it actually leaves you feeling that way. It's even more impressive when a particular game can also evoke emotions like that.

Scorpion Posted October 1, 2024 Share Posted October 1, 2024 Yes, I’ve definitely done that! I stalled finishing *Red Dead Redemption 2* because I didn’t want it to end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
