Do you finish games?

[Frostweaver]

Always finish the game unless it's really boring or crap game so i find no worth in finishing it.

I love good story lines and strategy.

[gbullock32]

I finish about 80% of the games I play, 5% or so I try for completionist; those I do not finish are ones I lose interest in or never gained any, or they were too bugged for me to complete for whatever reason.

[JackofTears]

I usually get about 3/4 through a game and then move on to something else. This also goes for movies and books; it is a rare thing that I finish anything. A product has to keep me entertained all the way through, or I will simply lose interest.

I feel the same way. Now I tend to want to just play a shooter or maybe a city building game or RTS where I can hop in and out.

[Cadarn94]

You and me both, I find there's not enough time anymore to waste on grinding a game you don't enjoy for the sake of saying you completed it.

[Eldarion]

For games that have endings at the end of long campaigns I must say my completion rate is probably around 60%. Sometimes that task just seems too daunting and I don't want to commit the time. I have DA Inquisition and Witcher 3 and think their both good but the thought of playing through them is not something I'm up to right now. So I like games that let me pick up and play for short burts or at least make me make some progress. This is kind of why destiny has been king of bothering me lately because I don't have as much time to play and a lot of their activities are time limited. So to say not only do they take a long time but some are only available certain days and some are only available for limited times. So I wish that would stop, I'd really like to complete my set of halloween armor but alas.

I finish the story, that's the end of the story There are very few exceptions to that rule. It's basically GOTY category if I continue playing a game after I went trough the story once.

if I'm unable to finish the story that means it was a shit game to begin with.

[Murray]

It's not as common as I would have wanted, but it happens, yes. In fact, I platinumed Crash Bandicoot 2 today.

[Irritablesquid]

I only finish games I enjoy which is the majority of games I play.
if I don't enjoy it after a few hours then I stop playing it and if I can get rid of it.

Ii find it hard playing games I don't enjoy

[Astraea]

Nope, I hardly ever finish a game. I mostly play games that are either infinite in length or so long that I keep making new games, play for hundreds of hours and quit, only to go back again and play another hundred of hours. I generally don't care about the story in games, so that incentive is out of the window.

[Hard Carved Winter]

I concur with your assessment of Wii U's version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. It is truly a joy to play on the platform.

[Hard Carved Winter]

The amount of time I spend exploring the entirety of a game is directly proportional to the sense of wonder and intrigue I experience throughout the title. Unless a game is complete tripe; that is, unplayable or truly monotonous, I spend the requisite time and effort completing the main campaign or story line with few diversions or extended playthroughs. It is a rare offering that holds my attention long enough to warrant a replay or 100% completion. There are simply too many quality games to enjoy these days.

[Necromancerx69]

I just finish the story line and move on to the next thing.
Unless it's a moddable game (I always come back for more, quick examples: Skyrim, Fallout: NV ).
Sometimes I enjoy a game 2 much I end up getting all achievements and play it multiple times, but not always.

[SnarkyJay]

I have a weird habit when it comes to many games. I will play right up until the last boss or mission, then take a break before completing it. I think this is because I don't want the game to end, and once I beat it, I'm done. I very rarely will 100% a game. Demon's Souls and Dark Souls I felt compelled to 100% for some reason, but most games I just play the main story and then put it away for a while. Lately, I have been replaying some games after picking them up for a Wii U I recently purchased. The gamepad integration added enough to some games that I had no problem replaying them. For example, I think the Wii U version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution is the best console version because the hacking and passcodes are all done on the gamepad. Considering you can pick up a Wii U for about $100, and most preowned Wii U games are really cheap made it worth it for me.

[apragon]

If I enjoy a game a lot, such as Fallout NV and Skyrim, then I go for the 100% but otherwise, I just finish the story and sidequests before putting the game away. Personally, the stories and lore of the game is what keeps me going to the end.
