Okay the title is hard to understand what I am trying to get at,
How long can you not play a game and then continue your file and still feel emersed in the story?
For example if I have started a Final Fantasy game and lets say I stop playing half way through the game, and then decide to play it again 4 months later, I have to start again, If I'm not playing the game in one straight I lose the feel easily.
6 weeks is about the maximum gap I can have before feeling to distant from the game to continue,
Some of my mates can pick up an RPG file after not playing it for over a year and be fine with that, not me.
