“i’m done” just means that i really cannot play the game anymore to the point where i’d actually go insane if i continue.

    Something I’m starting to realize too. Just because I start a game doesn’t mean I need to play it to the credits as soon as possible. I’m the only one fixated on my trophy list or hours played.

      So, I actually do need to play to the credits ASAP for two reasons. First, coming back to a game is intimidating. So if I put a game down, I end up deliberating between restarting and trying to relearn the entire game from the last checkpoint. Usually I end up playing something else.

      Second, I meander a lot. So even games I’m actively playing I try to stick to the plot so I don’t burn out playing side stuff. (It’s not always even side content. Sometimes it’s just dicking around.)

        Feel that- source: I’m a Like A Dragon fan.

        But another reason I tend to binge each game is lack of storage space and rising file sizes. Don’t want to download 100 GB again so better finish it immediately.
