    Because you remember it used to be fun and you’re trying so hard to recapture that feeling.

      why? I dont know man but after 30 minutes without any fun whatsoever I just close that game. That’s my treshold for not wasting my time on games I dont like. This also applies to games I used to like:

      I played a lot of FF14, but after the Endwalker ending it was just talking, talking and more talking without any real gameplay in between those talks and that was simply no fun for me anymore, because I like me some gameplay in my games.

        Yeah I get that way too. For me it’s a feeling of doing something more productive with my time, or at least that’s part of it. It’s stupid.

        That’s why I stopped playing Death Standing. Yeah it was great when you were actually playing it but the cutscenes killed it for me.

          That’s the Kojima seal of authenticity. When the opening cut-scene is longer than the average TV mini-series.
