Sometimes I'll do the "advanced" maneuver where I love a show or game and I'm like "this is awesome, I don't want to go through it too fast" and I'll pace myself by never feeling like now is an important enough time, and never again experiencing something I was truly enjoying.

I'm actively working on "beating games I like" right now as, like, a skill I'm developing.

That’s so me… Trying a new game, then “oh wow this is great m having so much fun! Finally enjoying a game this much again” the the next time “well since this is a good game I wanna be feeling 100% good so I can fully enjoy it” and then proceed to never play it again because any mild inconvenience or non perfect mood becomes a reason why I wouldn’t be able to really enjoy it. Waiting for the stars to align is my downfall.

I do this with game I play long term.

It took me nearly 10 years to bother fighting the End Dragon in Minecraft.

I got 2000 hours in Rimworld and never ”finished" a play though by launching a ship.
