I hate to leave games unfinished but sometimes it happens.

It happened to me with Valkyria Chronicles. I played some chapters and it felt like a chore. I left it in my collection gathering dust for quite some time now. I think I'll never try again the game.

Jak 2, it destroyed the franchise for me. A more "mature" look and that lame "GTA influence" turned me off.

I also have more examples but I can't remember them all.

VC is a game I always wanted to try, and Jak 2... HOLY SHIT... That sewer escort level, nearly ruined the franchise for me, I totally understand that one.

I have no problems with quiting a game I do not like.

Of course, I also have a problem with finishing games. I'll get ALL THE WAY to the end, right before the last boss/dungeon/chapter and I'll lose interest.

I 100% see that last point. It was chore for me to finish Graces F, not sure why, but damn some games it's just really hard to finish and not because you miss them.

Quit Assassin's Creed 2 out of boredom... But I feel like I didn't give it a fair chance so I plan on going back someday. A while after quitting AC2 I picked up AC3 because I like history/the American Revolution concept. I had no problems finishing it, I really liked it. Looking forward to AC4.

Edit: Sorry. I didnt read the OP properly. Thats why I mentioned games that I quit.

 

 

I dont play boring or uninteresting games till end. I only try games again that are interesting. Games I tried to push are.

Demons souls: After beating phalanx I tried a lot. But I failed. Its really hard.

Shadow of colossus: Beat two colossus. Then I just randomly explored. Didnt get to finish it.

MGS Peace Walker: Finished chapter 4. Then had all materials for metal gear zeke expect hear part. Also caught zadornov 6 times. But couldnt unlock metal gear zeke. So I saw the ending in youtube.

Ni no kuni: One of the best JRPG of this gen. But I didnt feel I had to play it. So I quit.

MGS Revengence: Great game. Fast paced and awesome. But I couldnt finish it.



Certain games I will, certain games I won't.



I've quit games before. Most of the time its at fault of controls.

Batman Forever on the GB. It has the WORST jump in games. On level one if you don't do a weird jump and turn. you're stuck and can't continue. I threw that game in the garbage.

This will anger a few people. Kingdom Hearts 3DS was my first KH game. I got KH 1.5 so I could start from the beginning. Sora's jump is abysmal. He stalls at edge jumps. And easily falls off because of that. I will complete this game.

Zelda Skyward Sword. between unresponsive sword hits. Me falling off ledges. Because the black blob guy you have to pop his toes. The horrible motion control bug thing. And Fii being the worst spaming character. I left the game incomplete.

Lion King GB. Another game with beyond horrible jumping. Unlike Sora stalling in KH. Simba would slip off edges, and or couldn't reach edges. Gave up after level 3.

Crysis 2. Ignoring the messed up story it caused. The checkpoint system was junk. Since you couldn't save were you wanted. I was stuck because the check point saved me in a place with the giant robots stomping on you in NYC. No ammo no nothing. I gave up. The story also pissed me off not to go back. Since it didn't care about game 1. I don't care about game 2. Read what game 3 did to the story. Didn't even want to try it.



battlefiedl 3 - 20 minutes and i couldn't be fucked



Depends on how much I dislike it.
