That depression and attention span bro

I just know what you want.

I like games with fast-paced action and no bullshit. Minimal story if I can help it.

So I tend to avoid most RPGS and stick to FPS and Roguelikes, some tactical games like Frozen Synapse.

I can play a game like Dragons Dogma and respect it, but I know I'm not going to spend alot of time with it.
>>
I sometimes wonder if I truly have a backlog or just a giant list of shit games I just dont feel like playing.
>>
>>343251348
I think like this too. The games are there and I feel I need to play them just for the sake of picking them up at one point.

> just a giant list of shit games I just dont feel like playing.
Thats half of it,

IMO if you're actually interested in a game you go out of your way to play it, generally speaking.
>>
>>343251291
What about games like Last of Us and platformers (Limbo, metroidvania-types)?
>>
>>343251348
That's why every couple of months I go through and get rid of games that aren't really worth the time. Take like the top 40-60% of your list and dump the rest.

Physical or digital?
>>
>>343250048
Just do what I do

Play what appeals to you and talk shit about all the other games even if you never played any of those
>>
>>343251584
I actually havent played many Metroidvanias but I'm looking to dip into Castlevania very soon.

Games like Last of Us...I dont really like them as games although I may enjoy their story. Games that exist purely for their stories don't ring as games to me, just 'interactive experiences'

Never ever wageslave.
>>
>>343251787
I'm staring at my games wondering what to play somedays. Sometimes I give in and choose one and focus on that game only for the next few days or weeks. It's really hard to just get comfortable with some games or hold your attention.
>>
>>343250048
Maybe you'll like mobile games or load up the old minesweepr or card games?

Get one of those 10 games in 1 cd roms from office depot and play some jewel or whatever.

maybe youre tastes are more "casual" memes aside? Sounds like you need a small short time waster more than sitting down and playing agame.

I've never been good at those sort of games except Tetris.

>>343252235
I know that feel. Some days instead of games I am sorting out porn and posting here. Really hate wasting my days like that.

Typically I don't buy games at all till I'm half-way decided on playing it, but if I do buy, go physical so you can return it/sell.

Think of really cheap games as permanent rentals. Don't pick up 20 at once, obviously. I never feel bad about picking up games for $5 or less. Always 1-2 at a time every few weeks(Humble Bundle is good for this.)

But as an old fag I remember back in the day when renting games for $5 for a few days at Blockbuster was the best reward I could get in my childhood. THE ENTIRE WEEKEND, WOW? Now trying out something that looks interesting for $2 is pretty easy especially with all this disposable income.

And hell, I've refunded a few games during this Steam Sale already. You're god damn right I'll TAKE my $2 back if the game sucks that much dick out the gate.

Depends on the games

for mostly new games or triple AAA, definitely mark it down somewhere on your list and wait 4-6 months for it to go on sale again. If you care enough you'll get it, even cheaper possibly. Indie shits? buy it and try it. You got two hours to decide if you like it then refund. old games, if it's cheap, go for it, if its not then definitely look more into to see if you'd actually like it or if it just sounds interesting
