      Especially if you're playing FF8 since enemies scale with you, so you can deff make your playthrough a nightmare. Diablo becomes one of the hardest bosses if you're overleveled or just decide to wait until later in the story to fight him, that's why I pop the battle as soon as I get his lamp.

      I feel that. Before I start a new game, I often look up: time on howlongtobeat for a rough time, and if there are any missable trophies in the game, and have a look into them if the game is longer (doing a second play-through of a 20 hour game is much more okay than a 200 hour game.)

    I noticed how I was ruining upcoming games for myself by obsessively looking up tons of videos akin to "50 things you missed in the trailer" or "newest info on mechanics and character for (game)" for any and all of the smallest tidbits of info that the internet could possibly provide.
    Then when the games came out I was surprised at how there wasn't as much surprise and novellty and wonder as there used to be in the olden days. Thankfully I realized what I was doing, and now I avoid information about games I like like a plague. I want to go in fresh and clueless as to what to expect. Every game that has burned itself into my memory was a game I played with 0 idea of what it is.
    I suggest you all do the same.

      @chrishubbard64 5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Agreed, I loved how virtually every final fantasy game seemed to have a spot you could max out levels on. Iirc, ff9 had one where you climb up onto this plateau and fight dragons in the middle or early part of the game and once you manage to survive a couple fights and gain some levels it turns into a huge boost for quite some time. Or getting a turbo controller for ff6 and setting up the narshe river run to an endless loop of auto attacks while you go and spend the rest of the day doing anything else. Come back and be 30 levels higher.

It's great for getting a good earlyish start. I ended up really overleveled after spending a few hours there. Plus you can sell what you get from fight to make some gil.

    One for me is, when a game has random things to collect throughout the world. I cannot continue with the main story until I collect those random items first. For example, feathers or synchronization points in AC games. As soon it opens up I stop everything until every synchronization point is done. Unfortunately, It burns me out to the point when I'm finally done I stop playing the game for about a month.

    I've got answers to a couple of these. The one about coming back to a game later can be alleviated by just accepting you should restart the game. This way you're back at the difficulty point you belong. Unless it's a game with grinding in it, then you can just go back to some low level zone and brush off your skills. You still might just want to restart if you can't remember the story in the first place.
    Of course, preventing that to start with ties into the rushing thing. When a new game comes out, don't drop the old one at all. Spread out the gameplay between both games so that you can finish the old one, and savor the new one. I've been playing Kenshi for my channel but I also jump into other games I've had for a while on most nights.

    I tend to play through games solidly because I am a bit of a completionist, and love the detail. This means my backlog of games isn’t getting any smaller.
    Back in 05 when Tenchu Fatal Shadows came out, I put aside a whole weekend to play it. I did little else. I did just about finish the story in that time, but to then get top scores on everything and unlock all the items and skills and beat all the boss fights on three different levels took months of work. I did finish it, and now I’ve lost the data.

  • @NickPiers
    @NickPiers 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I am INCREDIBLY guilty of not finishing games. Especially Metroidvania games. Outland, Guacamelee, and most recently Hollow Knight. All brilliant games, but once I haven't played them for awhile, I completely forget where I was or where I was going.
    And unlike open world sandbox games, those games rarely tell you where to go next. And you wind up having almost muscle memory for the layout of the levels. So if I take too long to play it again, I've not only forgotten all the survival techniques, but I'm completely lost on top of that.

  • @undefinederror40404

    I related to a few of these but entry 5 is so true to me. Sometimes I don't have the time to finish games or the patience. I think I only complete like 10% of my games now. As a kid I completed everything and always wanted more, I had too big an appetite and not enough games to satiate it, now as an adult my appetite is small and my plate overfilled with juicy juicy games, but I have had sufficient and just want to watch tv and fall into a nice food nap.
