  1. Commitment on On Videogame Length - Less Is More? · · Score: 1

    Commitment

    That's the solution. Commit yourself to finishing the game. It's like going to the gym. Set aside an hour a day and just do it.

    He says we say we'll come back to these games but never do. Well I must be different because I actually do. I think it's somehow better too because of the nostalgia factor. I remember when I came back to Tomb Raider 2. It felt great, like taking up a forgotten hobby. Recalling now, the only games I have to go finish is Final Fantasy 6, Yoshi's Island, and Mario 64.

    Games I've gone back and finished: (even if that means finding the rom) Zelda 1, 2, Metroid, Super Mario 1, 2 ,3 Deus Ex, Final Fantasy 7, Brood War, and Tomb Raider 2.

    However there are some games that I have started to play and quit but I have no intention of ever playing them again. Those games just suck. Why would you want to finish a game that was no fun?

    If the game is fun, you'll play it until its conclusion. If you don't want to finish it, then it probably just sucks.
