It's super annoying. Having to do at least a dozen trips to whichever settlement and the area your looting is not fun (especially if it takes two hours to clear the whole area). I'm surprised Beth didn't realise how tedius settlement crafting would be without that perk that links all workbenches. A perk that you might have to compromise your build to get or just say eff it to settlement building outside a few places. Or they did know but Mr "it just works" could not give two shits.

Right now my favorite Assassin's Creed game is Syndicate, but Revolutions was my #1 until that point and now only #2 by a short margin. There is some open world issues with the game, but there is stuff to do in the meantime. I was at max level close to start of the story because I had a lot of fun doing the hijack events where you just have to jump onto a wagon or train to start the adventure. There was the typical collect-a-thon, but unlike the first game most of them will show up on the map if you get close. Thank you, that sounds good ! I need to give it a closer look I guess .

Other games I dropped:
The Banner Saga Connecting HP to character's strength makes sense, but makes combat ultimately terrible. Also, you can lose characters on stupid events, so you invest all points on one character and he dies, and then you stay with a lot of crappy characters you didn't invest points on, it made the game unplayable to me.
Everspace Boooooooooooooring. Dropped half an hour in
Flying Tigers: Shadows over China Dropped with 10 minutes, the controls are absoutely awful. There's only ONE thing that can't suck on an airplane game, and it's the controls. You had one job!
The Longest Journey I like puzzle games, but the puzzles here make absolutely no sense
Valkyria Chronicles Good intentions, but battles are ultimately bad.

Oh, gosh, loads.
Most recently? The Surge. Dark Souls-esque combat? Good. Sci-fi setting? Bad. Well, for me, anyway. Eventually just lost interest as everything looked the same.
Resident Evil 7 too, but I didn't give that a chance. I just knew it wasn't what I was looking for, it didn't feel like RE at all. I'll give it another go sometime.
Wasteland 2 I had to give up on, as it began bugging out so much it quickly became unplayable.

A couple of more games:
Baldur's Gate 2: Yes I admit it: I've never finished playing this game. I started playing it, for quite a bit. I hated the parts where I could go to but was obviously way underleveled. Like going up to some attic and encountering a full party with some high level mage just raping my own party... However that kind of trial and error gameplay wasn't the reason I stopped playing BG2. I actually got rather invested in it, and loved how it was so much better (storywise) than it's prequel. I stopped playing because some other game somehow got in my hands and I started playing THAT. I can't remember which one though, but I do know I never returned to BG2 to finish what I had started. I have the Enhanced Edition in my Steam backlog, so maybe some day…
Neverwinter Nights 2 A bit similar to Baldur's Gate 2: I loved the game more than the first part. However in NWN2 there's this part where you have to get ready for some impending attack on your stronghold, and I really didn't like that part. I moved on to something else and like with BG2, I never continued. I did hear recently that AFTER that part in the game it actually starts to get good again, so I might pick it up again someday (soon?). And I never got the chance yet to experience 'Mask of the Betrayer' which is apparently extremely good.
Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne I played through the main game and liked it. I started The Frozen Throne, but it didn't immerse me enough to keep me from moving on to play something else.
Starcraft I bought the Retail box (when PC games were still offered in those good old big cardboard boxes) LONG ago, before this millennium. It wasn't full price, but it wasn't dirtcheap either. Back in the day I bought games to go actually play them, instead of just keeping my Steam backlog as large as possible. So like with Starcraft I fully intended to play this… I ended up lending it to my little brother, and never bothered to even start it up once myself. Back to this day I'm not sure why exactly… Ofcourse this doesn't fall under games "I tried to play", since I obviously didn't even try, but still. Call this an honorable mention or something…
Emperor: Battle for Dune The supposedly ultimate sequel for Dune 2(000). This was a day-1 purchase for me. I installed it, played it for a bit, and for some reason moved on to the next game. I don't even know exactly why, since I thought it was fun. I do remember the FMVs being jerky by being played from CD (subpar CD-ROM drive), and this could have been a reason, since I actually liked those FMV's from the nineties, even if they were a bit cheesy and badly acted (with the exception of Wing Commander III and IV ofcourse!). So yeah these horrible to watch FMV (because of the jerkiness, not the being cheesy-part) possibly destroyed my experience. I think I've tried to revisit the game, with a larger harddisk to let it fully install to it (they didn't come in terabytes yet!), and the game crashing often, so never finished it.
Lords of the Fallen A more recent game. A Souls-like game with a Souls-like setting, but with pretty good graphics. I loved/hated Dark Souls (and Bloodborne), but Lords of the Fallen became just tedious. And unlike with Dark Souls (which also had plenty of annoying/tedious bits), I lost my urge to try again. So I just gave up. I think Lords of the Fallen (and the above mentioned The Surge, by the same devs) tries too hard to be like Souls, but loses a lot of the essence to actually play like it.

Here's another one the first two Witcher games. I don't know why but I have never been able to complete them. I found Geralt to be boring and dull. Which is weird cause I like the history and lore of the world and Geralt's look. But for some reason the games never gripped me. And if anyone is wondering why I bought the second one if I didn't like the first. I didn't I got it for free through a GoG.com giveaway.

I did like the world and story, but I found the gameplay really irritating and the levelling unsatisfying. Never played the second game but I did like the third one.

DOOM (2016) - Only Doom game I've ever played. Got through a lot of the campaign but found it so insufferably repetitive and boring that I uninstalled it. Yes, precisely. I'm constantly stunned over how many people seem to truly love this game, and how many 'best FPS' lists it gets included on. It's a horde mode arena shooter, not all that different from the multiplayer horde modes in several other shooters in that the objective is simply to clear out connected rooms of monsters until they stop respawning, before moving down a short corridor to the next arena and then repeating it over and over and over and over again. I think that one of the reasons it's so popular is it's focus on speed-running 'rusher' gameplay, which is exactly how so many of the current generation of games seem to play; just blitzing through at breakneck speed as if it's some kind of race. I've so often seen Doom 2016 referred to as 'oldschool', but it's actually the polar opposite. The original MS DOS Doom games from the early 90s remain timeless classics - albeit not really suited for modern gamer tastes. My 15-year-old nephew would probably end up bored in under three minutes, because his tastes have been normalised by linear titles such as Call of Duty, which are the gaming equivalent of fast food. Doom 3 is also a very interesting game, if you can get past the rather cheap jump scares, monster closets and the somewhat tedious first quarter,

I've read a lot about game breaking bugs in Fallout 4. I've completed that main game - probably to the extent of around 95% completion. Certainly I did every single real quest in the game, though I gave up on endless settlement-building quests after around the tenth. Also completed most of the DLC, with the exception of the Vault Workshop thing - because by that point I was sick of building. Now admittedly I had the unofficial patch installed, along with around 90+ additional mods, most of which were based around settlement-building, allowing you to place stuff anywhere, or build things you would not otherwise be able to build, along with a few cosmetic mods. But even so I'd hard pressed to think of a single serious bug I encountered. The only one I can think of off the top of my head is right at the start where you're supposed to follow Codsworth after fighting some bloatflies - and he refuses to move. Reloading from an earlier save point fixed the glitch. So either I was extremely lucky, or the unofficial patch basically fixed everything. I don't give a stuff about achievements so this wasn't an issue - but I'm given to understand that it's perfectly possible to get achievements even while using mods. There's a mod for it! www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/15639?tab=descriptionThe reason achievements are disabled for mod users is because Bethesda wanted players to use their stupid Creation Club paid content, and disabling achievements for unofficial mods was one way to 'encourage' us to go down their chosen route. I suppose we should count ourselves as fortunate they didn't just disable unofficial mod support entirely.

I think I finished the tutorial of SWTOR and never turned it back on. I got about 10 hours? Into Senua's Sacrifice. Great story, beautiful morose imagery- hate puzzles, hate it's combat. I mean, that's mostly what that game is, so I stopped because it was depressing. I played Skyrim a month, only finished the theives guild and the dragon quest. Tried two different fall outs and Bored quit. Kingdom of Amulur's demo tricked me I tried to play StarCraft 1 all the way after completing and loving SC2. Probably got about half way. I finished Diablo 3 base game and never turned it back on. I forced myself to finish AC Odyssey's main stories, skipped a lot of side quests, and will not buy it's DLC After loving FF10-2, I tried FF10 and didn't get past the Soccer game.

[quote author=" phoray" source="/post/1199657/thread" timestamp="1546985605"After loving FF10-2, I tried FF10 and didn't get past the Soccer game.[/quote] It was the opposite for me. I did finish FF10 (only FF game I ever completed and only because you could turn off the grindy random encounters). Then dropped FF10-2 after maybe a few hours as soon as I realized Lulu is relegated to a cameo and the main characters have none of her snark. The combat revisions also didn't grab me at all.

A few more:
Icewind Dale 1 & 2 - Without a main protagonist and party members with different backstories and banter, these games couldn't keep my interest long enough to complete them
Neverwinter Nights 1 & 2 - Tediously long BORING stretches of game where I couldn't go somewhere or speak to someone without first having to spend a few hours grinding minor quests. Sad thing is that I liked the first few hours of Hordes of the Underdark and Mask of the Betrayer but I just couldn't bring myself to continue on the boosted characters I made.
Jade Empire - This was a backtrack game. I believe I was waiting for Dragon Age 2 and thought I'd try it out. Never touched it since
Pillars of Eternity I was supposed to love this game cuz ZOMG Obsidian but no. I spent hours not knowing what was going on. I gave up after getting the stronghold.
Wasteland 2 Character building was frustrating. It turns out that it was best to give everyone the same stats and have them focus on different skills. I gave up on it and played XCOM. I'll revisit it someday.
Morrowind Played this on Xbox when it was released. I had fun but never did much of anything or complete any main quests. Later on I got the PC version but couldn't get back into it. Then I tried the Morroblivion mod with no luck. My last hope will be the Skywind mod when it's released and only if it's released for Special Edition version.
Oblivion I spent several hours in this game across several characters. I've done all the quests and DLCs but for some reason I couldn't finish the main quest and the Shivering Isles expansion. I don't think I ever will.

Another one from me: The Elder Scrolls III: Blood Moon, or the second addon for Morrowind. After finishing the awesome but also tedious in some ways (I'm looking at you, annoying pests from above (Cliff Racers)), and the really excellent Tribunal addon, I continued playing the second one. It's the one that adds Solstheim to the Morrowind (Vvardenfel) map.
The addon was quite taxing for my PC at that time, despite it being a high end machine. I guess Solstheim really pushed the Gamebryo-engine version used in Morrowind over it's limits (I played Oblivion at release on the same PC and it looked and ran way better). But well I played quite a bit, but for some reason I just quit. I guess I got bored and moved on to the next.

Still don't love the gameplay, but I will probably finish this series at some point. What did you think of TW2 compared to the first one? I actually enjoyed the gameplay a little more the second time around with TW2, but still kind of liked the first game's feel better. I have a suspicion with this game and 3 that they play better with a controller. I liked the lack of cheesy sex cards. I still did my banging, but was happy to have those absent. Too much hack-n-slash, and the difficulty is absurd at times on any level. I am convinced that to beat the Operator, you have to really know the mechanics of the game and have luck and cheese the room and the pillars somehow with the shrunkeness. It is shitty design. But, I guess if you want to scrub-wall a nice bit of gear, you do you CDPR. I have never read the books, I find the setting interesting enough and I like sexy woman with strange powers that aren't shy. It's a fun male fantasy character to RP. I might replay it, so that says something.

Hi Onecrazymonkey1! Sorry I've never responded to you saying hi a while ago, as you can see I'm only here, in-and-out, once every few months these days, haha. No real reason, just how life goes. On topic - good Lord, so many... Oftentimes it doesn't even reflect on the quality of the game, I just get bored easily. For example, I've actually never finished Bioshock, even tho I genuinely enjoyed playing. Something else just came up, I got involved in it and then couldn't muster the same level of immersion I had before. Happens to me all the time, sadly. Same with Dark Souls 3 - even tho I got decently good at it, somewhere around the end game I got distracted and didn't feel like going back after a few months have passed. I've recently purchased Pillars of Eternity and I'm finding it hard to immerse in from the start... I thought - it's Obsidian, it has to be good as far as character interactions and choices go - but I'm not sure if I'll ever finish it. Maybe I've outgrown the isometric, but I doubt that's the case. I think it just not what I expected it to be, namely FNV in D&D land. I guess I've imprinted on FNV or something.. But again, I believe it's just my poor attention span that's responsible for the long list of games I've never finished. The few that I actually fault for my disinterest... all the Far Cries and Assassin's Creeds I've ever tried - way too repetitive; Telltale games - their primary gimmick was actually an illusion that resulted in cosmetic changes, if anything; DAI (yes, really, if not finishing the DLCs counts as not finishing the game) - too MMO, pretentious characters and narrative. All in all, I'm afraid that my owned to finished games ratio is pretty bad. But as long as I get some entertainment from my time with them, I'm ok. Not satisfied, but ok.

Icewind Dale 1 & 2 - Without a main protagonist and party members with different backstories and banter, these games couldn't keep my interest long enough to complete them
The NPC mods help in this area. I still didn't enjoy them as much as the BG games, but they were better, at least. I never finished IWD2 the second time because I couldn't beat the final bosses. I rage quit and uninstalled both games.

I've bailed on Dishonored 2 for the time being. Part of it is my threshold tolerance for stealth games, call it ADD or whatever - it gets old sneaking for every single mission. I'm like 6 hours from the end, but when I pulled away, it seems I can't get back into it. I'm also playing on the hardest mode which doesn't help. It's still a game I'd recommend to stealth and level design purists.

Dark souls...Not everyone is cut out for that brutality, I'm too soft. I also need more focus on a good story to keep me entertained. My biggest beef with that game is not the difficulty, it's the slow, deliberate combat. I'm used to the fast paced move-sets of fighting games, and in TP games, Witcher and Arkham were more to my liking because of the dynamic movement in group combat. DS isn't much harder, it just punishes you much more and has no quick saving. Nioh for instance, now that game tests twitch skills way more than DS.
