Not really related to the subject, but I have that problem as well. I tend to avoid most of the big, sprawling games and I find myself wondering how someone could find time for Witcher 3 and MGSV and Fallout 4 and Xenoblade in a single year. Games of that sort of scope tend to keep me busy for months so I try to limit myself to one or two of them per year, otherwise I'll never get around to catching up on old games. I mean, my backlog still includes things like Metroid Prime 2 and Psychonauts. |
I have Psychonauts waiting for me in my Steam library as well :/ I have given up on Steam and GoG sales, still have plenty in my backlog. On ps2 too, for example PES 3 and DQ8 are still on my shelf.
GTA5 and TW3 both dragged on too long imo. Instead of difficulty levels, there should be content levels in these kind of games. A story focused mode that cuts out all but the most important side quests, removes the side activities and most of the crafting and loot. Fallout 4 has plenty of filler too. The problem is you never know what leads to an interesting fleshed out quest sequence and what's just a one time retrieve or kill mission. And although I'm loving F4 for now, I'm spending way too much time in the menus organizing my inventory, just like in TW3.
