I tend to get bored of games fairly quickly. I’ll hop from game to game to game, over and over again, never (rarely) beating a game before moving on to the next. Sometimes I come back to these games I’ve abandoned and start over, only to repeat the cycle. There’s only one game that I keep going back to again and again. The Sims. I do wish there were other competing life sim games that offered a similar amount of content and mod support, but alas, there’s nothing out there quite like it yet.
It’s good to know I’m not alone… I buy a lot of games and have a huge catalogue over a number of systems. It really is the thing I enjoy most as downtime.
However, I can count on one hand how many title screens I have seen over the last 5 years. I get so far, lose interest, move on. Several months later I will feel like playing again, wipe the save and start over rinse and repeat.
Games that keep calling me back however are Skyrim, Fallout 4 and the Bioshock trilogy.
