Poll: Do you finish games?

[King of Asgaard]

Yes, about 95% of the time.
The exceptions are few and far between.
Although, I recently stopped playing Catherine's story mode because the puzzles were becoming more and more obtuse and frustrating.

I consider not completing a game I've bought to be a personal failure. There are a few in my collection; they sit there. Mocking me.

Lately though I've been on a bit of a purchasing binge; I bought Witcher 2, played the tutorial and haven't been able to will the energy to pick it up and even start it. I don't know why I bought it because I had exactly the same problem with Witcher 1. Madness.

Funnily enough, I have finished all the sandboxes and rpg's I have. Why? because they can hold my interest. I've never finished anything else. Shooters, hack n' slashers..etc etc.

Unless I really don't like it (last game of this type was Skyward Sword), I'll play through the single player campaign or story mode or equivalent until the end of every game I start. How many side quests and whatnot I do along the way depends on how interesting they appear to be at the time.

Once I've finished a game, I'll move onto something else, rather than keep playing it until I get bored of it. I just replay games that I enjoyed again and again later on.

If they're good and not too big I'll finish the main story and most of the side-quests.
I still need to get around to finishing Digital Devil Saga actually.

Yeeeah....

It isn't worth it. The ending is worse than ME3.

I usually finish the main story and some of the side quests. Mainly because my favourite games got so many side quests I couldn't possibly do all of them.

 

[Xerosch]

I do everything that broadens the story like sidequests or sub-scenarios. Occasionally, I look some things up in a walkthrough to get the whole story experience.

What I definately don't care about is getting all achievements, rushing through a game or play the Multiplayer to get specific trophies.

But it does have a sequel!

I normally finish games to as near 100% as I can stomach, which is usually everything barring the absurd collection quests or tedious side missions. Sadly lately I've found my attention span waning and I'll get to the end of a game and then jump over to something else. I have seven or eight nearly finished games sitting on my TV stand waiting for attention that may never come. Poor little guys :'(.

The ending for the first one is fine.

The sequel on the other hand...

I finish most games I play, but very rarely bother to 100% a game, I have got 100% on some games where getting 100% didn't involve hours and hours of playing or knowing not to open unmarked boxes to get a stupid spear that isn't really worth the effort... that might have been the final straw in me now disliking fianl fantasy after X.
