Games you've Bought but Never Finished (Or Played)

[Val the Moofia Boss]

Title says it all. Say why you got it and why you never finished it or got around to it.

I'm not one of those guys who likes to... what is the meme? "Get their wallet raped during the Steam Sale and buy a ton of games." I rarely buy games, in fact I can actually see the list of all my steam games without having to scroll. Still, there's some games I haven't actually beaten or played.

Borderlands 2: I actually played this game - for 16 hours according to Steam - but ran into a difficultly spike after The city flew away. I tried to catch up to it but the monsters started getting higher level than I would progress naturally. Wasn't able to repair the transponder/beacon (because the robots kept wiping me) and I absolutely didn't want to go back and grind levels like it was the 90's or something, so I uninstalled.

Kingdoms of Amalur: I've got several dozen hours invested in this game but have never actually finished it. Actually, I've never even made it across the ocean to the second continent. The writing is excellent and the gameplay was very sit back and smash buttons relaxingly. I don't think it was the game that was the problem, but rather there were games that better caught my attention at the time.

Half-Life 2: Yes, I'm a heretic: I call myself a member of the PC master race but have never finished this game, for the same reasons as KoA.

Transistor: Picked this up during the Christmas steam sale due to PCgamer's recommendation along with Banner Saga and Dragonfall. I finished Banner Saga and Dragonfall but completely forgot about Transistor. In fact, I didn't even know I had it until I booted up steam today. However, thanks to WoW, HotS, and Pokemon, I won't have time to play it.

I have a lot... Almost two bookshelves full... >.<

About 70+ games in my steam library I have never installed. Why? Every time I look at them to play, I just go meh. Why did I buy them? Cmon, they were all like 75-90% off.

[Zogarth]

Half my steam list. Including several tripple A's. Some I have only opened, played for like 5 min, then never opened again.

[Misjudged Maaanwell]

Xenoblade Chronicles....I was just so disappointed in the first hour of play. Never looked back

[Sky High]

FF13, need I say more?
as for other games... bioshock infinite, dead space 2, final fantasy 12, far cry 3, darksiders 2 thanks to not having the desire to start over on them thanks to my POS PS3 constantly breaking.

[Deleted]

Theres an app for that.

Yes, you do.

Resident Evil 6. I bought this a year ago on Steam summer sale and finally started playing it a month ago with my friend. It's a two person co-op game so I didn't want to play solo so I just waited til someone else I knew wanted to play. It's not a very good game lol but we've beat the Leon chapters.

Skyward Sword. As with every Zelda game, I play it about halfway or more through and then just get burned out and stop. Then a couple years later I tend to go back and play it from start to finish. It's always easier/faster the second time so I don't get bored with how long it is then. I still need to go back and finish this one.

[WskyDK]

Almost every single game I've purchased I've never finished.
Played 29 minutes of Skyrim, never finished a Batman game, etc.
Basically the Dark Souls series, and Every Metal gear that isn't on NES are the only games I've finished (Only at 50% total completion of MGSV atm)


https://steamdb.info/calculator/7656...9847805/?cc=us 32 games not played on Steam alone
EDIT: Oh hey, I'm at 1k hours played. 11 years. Sigh

Shadows of Mordor. Bought it when I picked up my PS4, then I got Samurai Warriors and it kinda fell by the wayside, keep meaning to go back and pick it up again.

GTAV. Got it for free with my PS4, it's still sealed :P

22 games not played That is only my steam library.

[Friendlyimmolation]

Never finished a single Assasin's creed game, thought they were all awful. Then again I only got to the third one.

[Thelxi]

I bought FFXIII-2 ages ago, but I haven't even finished the base game.

[Fencers]

Like 90% of my Steam library.

Rarely do I finish a game or sink hours upon hours in a single game.

[Herecius]

I'm still waiting to play Metro: Last Light until I have an Oculus Rift on my face because I want to shit myself in terror.

[May90]

I remember only three games I bought and never finished.

1. Operation Flashpoint. I really liked the game, but it was freaking hard. I got stuck on one of the missions half way through where you have to sneak to the evacuation zone without alarming anyone, otherwise you got massacred; no matter what I tried, I died very fast. I abandoned that playthrough and never played the campaign again, since that mission really destroyed all my desire to replay it.
2. Frank Herbert's Dune. I won't say anything here, just Google this game's reviews, and you will understand why I've never finished it.
3. Assassin's Creed. The game really didn't click with me, and I uninstalled it after playing for 3 hours, never touching the series since.

Oh, and I haven't finished Witcher 3, abandoning my playthrough after getting bombarded with countless side quests. I intend to finish it at some point, but it is unlikely I will return to it before a few patches later, when hopefully it will be revamped.

Chrono-Trigger.

I don't get the love this game receives. After a few hours in, I was bored to tears..never went back.

[Waaldo]

According to that steamdb site I've played just under half of my 218 games.

I have a lot of games with most of them coming from the obvious steam list. The biggest one I want to finish but can never get myself to do it is Bravely Default. I'm.... 50-60 hours in? I did all the side content up to that point and its an insanely fun game but it just...drags on. I'll have to finish it though before the sequel gets a localized version heh. The Kingdom Hearts HD remasters are also high on my list. I absolutely love those games and I was going to marathon them during the winter break but I never did.

Maybe I just cant stand long games anymore. 5-8 hours is perfect.
