Now, lets get the obvious out of the way first. I'm extremely passionate when it comes to video games. I love the darn things, and there are but a couple things that can match the fulfillment I feel when I beat another game.
But, for couple of years now, I've had problems with trying out new games. While there are so many games out there that I really want to play, getting in them is kinda hard. I install the game, start playing it, everything is awesome and tomorrow I'm too lazy to continue. Not cause I don't like the game, but cause its kinda hard to adapt to something I've never played. Once I actually get in the game, I pretty much spend all my free time playing it, until i beat it. While just seeing a screenshot/hearing a track/reading about the game I've already played and enjoyed makes me crave a new play through. No KotOR 2, stahp looking at me like that, I'm not going to beat you for the 12th time. Not yet. Have some freaking patience.
Arcanum is a nice example of it. It always looked quite awesome to me, but I never managed to actually start playing the game till couple months ago. Sure, I rolled like ten toons but I never made it out of Shrouded Hills. Once I did tho, I spent every single minute playing it, and I had an absolute blast.
Now that I think about it, it prolly has something to do with age/availability of the games. When I was younger and had no moneyz or internetz, and good games were scarcely available to me, I almost instantly got into everything.
Anyone else had a similar experience? And, if so, any tips how to get over this? I've got Geneforge waiting for me on my desk, pls bros, help me play it.
