If I'm going to play through a game again. It had to have at least been 3 years or so. Enough that i can remember a lot of the story and set pieces.

For me, games are almost like books. I play/read it once and I'm done a lot of the time.

I have to really enjoy the movement or combat mechanics of a game to even consider revisiting it, but once I find a game like that it ends up being a game I consistently play multiple times throughout the years.

Examples:

The entire Monster Hunter Franchise (I've probably beaten Monster Hunter Freedom Unite 5 times)
Both Mirror's Edge games
Titanfall 2
Vanquish
Celeste
Super Mario Odyssey
Yoshi's Island
Team Fortress 2
Trackmania

If a game doesn't have excellent movement mechanics and it's a single player game I'll usually drop it in the first few hours. Movement mechanics are my primary factor for whether I'll like a game or not.

Yeah it gas to be a favorite game of all time for me to do that.

Like new Vegas is something I can play through at least once a year.
