I bet a good 95% of those are trash and useless to you. That's why you don't feel an incentive to finish them

>>387867057
Good job. You've wasted your time on worthless singleplayer games and your life still hasn't improved.

>Not getting bored and giving up to only playing games as they release and online games to fill in the gaps where there are no interesting releases

This lifestyle actually managed to be cheaper than when I was hoarding used video games for my collection.

Help me out then, which should I play first
>Super Mario RPG
>Paper Mario
>Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga

>>387868625
Play them in the other in which they released, 'tard.

>>387868625
Start with the shittiest game first and work your way up.
M&L -> SMRPG -> PM

Sometimes I fantasize about throwing away all my games and starting over. It would feel so nice and simple to just own one game that I can beat before I get something else. I have so much that I haven't played, it's so hard to pick any one game and stick to it.

I think I like video games too much guys

This. I make massive backlogs and then drop things after a pilot or a chapter because they're garbage.

Same shit here man.

I have a giant backlog of PS1 and SNES JRPGs and some platformers I want to run through, along with some old school shooters, and I bought Bayonetta, Grandia 2, Vanquish, Turok 2, Tales of Symphonia and I haven't really started any of them. I did just beat Castelvania 4 and started Rondo, and I'm glad I did, but there's just too many games I'm interested in to fully get through.

Huh, I guess I'm alright then

What are you supposed to do now that your backlog is finished?

It's fortunate I don't really like movies, otherwise I'd be fucked. Also I have to work and constantly update myself, which doesn't really help.

Video games > books/comics >>>>>>> music >>>>>>>> film/TV

When you pick a new game from your backlog, do you go for the short, easy games first or the long, immersive ones like RPGs? Or do you try to mix it up?

i have so many fucking games in my backlog its not funny
im literally never going to finish it, its probably impossible

>>387867923
Go to your Calender and write appointments.

that's a lot of grinding right there, I was planning to play up to the ps2 game but I gave up almost at the end of DW2, the grinding in the first game was enough for me...

To those with huge backlogs I have this single shred of advice to give:
Cut out all the unnecessary bloat. Be realistic. Do you really see yourself playing/reading/watching that book/movie/vidya? Don't waste your time with garbage and be diligent.

I think I'm going to have to make some kind of daily schedule to create some structure that allows me to do shit instead of just ending up here shitposting and laughing at dumb shit you faggots do

>tfw I have games that I brought around 2010 or 2011 and still haven't played

So much things to do, and so little time to enjoy it

I always piss away way too much time on /v/ to get round to playing as much video games as I would like. My backlog is in the hundreds, so I think I would have to quit 4chan for a year or two to clear my backlog.

>>387867098
his face

I do have a huge backlog. I'm currently playing Witcher 3 and having a blast.

I found that only having the game I want to finish installed helps a lot. I don't jump from game to game anymore.

I also usually have a huge problem motivating myself to start a game after I come home from work, but once I started it u get into it and play for a few hours before going to bed and watching a TV show

I actually don't have much of a backlog. I haven't bought a console or a console game since 2011 so I've finished all of those, and I only have 2 games in my Steam library that I've never touched, plus another 3 that I've only played halfway. I'm a poorfag so I don't buy a ton of games and I usually get the most out of the games I do buy.

Nope. I put it on the shelf, got distracted by other things, and never went back to it.
I also did the exact same thing for Xenoblade Chronicles. Bought it brand new on launch day for full price and never even opened it. Kill me
