I often see reviews giving a score for replayability and factoring that in to the final score by a huge degree. And I'll be honest - I don't get it.
Replayability factors in to my enjoyment of a game exactly 0%. I don't care in the slightest.
In my opinion a game does not have to be replayable at all, not even once. I don't even know why I would want to play the same game twice. I have so, so many games I haven't played yet - why would I play the same one again and spend my time with something I already know when I can experience a new one?
When I'm done with a game, I am done with the game. I certainly won't start it up again when there's hundreds of unplayed games in my shelf.
It's the same with movies. I constantly see people lowering their score on repeated viewings - but why? Most movies are made with the idea that you don't know them yet. Things that surprised you the first time are obviously gone if you watch it again. I find it to be ridiculous to lower your score because of that.
What do you think about this?
