There are, for lack of better term, type a personalities that tend to gear toward optimization and speed running, and that can be enjoyable in and of itself. While I don’t try to complete games very fast there are moments I do. It’s not the optimization ruining the hobby itself, but ppl stressing themselves out over it per se. I think there’s nothing wrong with having a vague outline of what you have in store for yourself because it gives you an outline of what to realistically anticipate. I find that using the site more like the vague outline it is is more enjoyable that adhering to a hard goal. I also think this trend of spreadsheets detailing artificial concepts like quantifying fun per minute is a bit much. I just play games randomly out of my backlog. I will finish it, they’re not sandboxes to me that I can come back to unless there’s postgame or multiplayer content, in which I will then I’ll look back quite frequently. Someone else’s notion of fun will not be my own, and that’s ok.
@@MahouPoint that’s a good point actually, people might wanna know an estimate of how long a game could take, maybe for value of their purchase or something? But yeah this was mostly aimed at those that track their backlog with spreadsheets and stuff lol
