Because, as the Anon said if X > 1, where X is the amount of cocks, then it's gay.

Futa on Girl is one cock, so it's not gay. Guy on Girl is one cock, so it's not gay. Guy on Guy is gay, because it's two cocks. Futa on Futa is gay, because it's two cock. Girl on Girl is pure forbidden love, so it's not gay either.

This is basic math Anon,

It makes it really difficult to focus on one game honestly.
In the past three months I must have started over 20 games and finished exactly zero of them.

Keep the amount of games installed on your system at a minimum. Just install what you're going to devote time to. Do not stockpile. Do not install something "to play it later."

I get this "nothing to play" feeling a lot. Also have hundreds of games on Steam.

But it really has nothing to do with what's in my Steam library, or Steam's entire catalog. I have so many Steam games because of bundles. Bundles always have one good game, which alone justifies the purchase, and then a bunch of crap. Moreover, I have more than $60 in disposable income; I could buy literally any single video game right now, if I knew what I wanted to play.

The problem is that I don't know what to play. My free time is so limited because of my job that, paradoxically, I can't even bring myself to use that free time effectively. I bought The Witcher 2 during a recent sale and I haven't played it yet because I never feel like starting a long-ass game when I have to go to bed in an hour.

So I just end up watching TV like a normie.

This is how it happens.

So yeah.
As already stated earlier in this thread, there's something psychological going on when we have too many choices.

So, the "answer" I found for myself is the following:

Plan A:
1. Never, ever, buy another game before you play the previous game you already bought to completion.
2. If the game is good, 100% it.
3. If it's not that good, just finish it.
4. If it's unbearable and you can't stand another second of it anymore, go complain on /v/, make some shitpost threads about said game and go play something else.
5. Repeat.

Plan B:
1. Have JUST AND ONLY JUST 3 games installed that you are FUCKING SURE YOU WANT TO COMPLETE.
2. In addition to this 3 games, have another 2 or 3 games that you play for multiplayer purposes only. Imagine dota 2, starcraft, team fortress 2, wherever the fuck you like to multiplayer.
3. Try to stick with one game at a time to complete. When you get bored or having doubts if you should continue playing it or just buy something else, go play some multiplayer, have a drink, masturbate, shitpost, etc.
4. End AT LEAST 2 of the games you choose. If the other one is too shit to complete, shitpost about it on /v/.

This worked for me, and I'm curious if some anons have other strategies for this kinda of thing.

Yes. It was the same for me.
But we must use some commitment for this to work, anon. There's no other way.

Also, you could, for starters, jut play short games first. And then you go and put 1 game in the list of 3 that is long. And go from there.
