I know for some superhuman gamers out there this thread is unapplicable. They don't buy new games until they've beat the one's they're already on, or else they don't buy games unless they're sure they'll be good enough for completion...

But I'm not one of them, I am one of those people who simply habitually snaps up any and every highly rated/nostalgic title I find on steam, gog, ps store, whatever. As such it would probably be THERAPUTIC for me to list all the fucking titles I've blown money on without completing to date.

You too, perhaps?

Let's make it interesting, give some notional ranking of importance and pressure to complete.

Spoiler: My list

I've played all of these a bit but have never buckled down to complete them to date.

The Witcher 2. It is gorgeous, it is fantastic, it is gigantic, and I've never finished it. Completed Witcher 3 many times over so I'm not sure I can dial back my gameplay expectations.

It's not my fault my appetite for buying games is bigger than my actual hunger.
Also I've been taught to eat until I'm not hungry anymore, not until everything is eaten. That's for americans.

I'm an opportunist. If a game has a good reputation and I see it at a good price, I'll grab it. Lately there have been MANY chances to get cheap games and my already long backlog is getting longer. I won't try to list them all, but I've barely scratched the surface of Witcher 3, Divinity OS2, Dark Souls 3, Monster Hunter World, and Titanfall 2. And that's just a few games I'm getting intimidated.

I'm always playing Starcraft and Overwatch and like one more game. Right now it's Doom 2016 so I can move on to the sequel.
