A question I posed to myself five minutes ago, when I looked at my self of 80+(not kidding) games and my hand just hovered in mid air, my eyes darted back and forth across titles, and my mind could not form a consensus on which game I really wanted to play.
I have a pretty big backlog of games I have yet to beat, and there's a crap ton more coming out in the next few months. I just can't stand not being able to just make a damn decision when I finally get some time off from work. I just end up not doing anything because I can't pick from 80+ games!
Anyone else have this problem? Or even a solution? Doubt there is one, but please share your thoughts.
I'm at the point where I refuse to pay $60 for a new game b/c of my backlog. Mind you it's only 30 games deep, but even on sale it's hard to justify picking up a new game when I know it'll just go onto the pile.
Guess my advice is spend a week at most casually playing a game and then move on. But don't pass up on games you can play w/ your friends, b/c it gets a lot harder to organize gaming sessions when everyone is on their own schedule.
Unless a game has good replay value to warrant keeping it around, I usually play my video games like a Tenga. Pump it and dump it, or beat it and sell it. I've found even with dvd collecting that there is just too much crap collecting dust that I don't watch. Some of which I have only watched once and then shelved it. I guess the point I'm trying to make, is that I'm constantly looking out for new games that will bring me hours upon hours of entertainment.
I keep telling myself that I would stop playing addictive games that are worth over 100 hours of my time. I.e Skyrim, God Eater, Fallout 4, MGSV, FFX/X-2 HD Remaster and Fallout NV and just move to other games I've bought during the Steam Summer and/or Winter sale that hasn't been touched in over a year. Yet, in the end, I find myself going back to it even if I wanted to show some love to the other games I bought.
