This question popped into my head when I was playing Void Stranger. I just got done with the game and will probably never play it again despite not finishing it. The game is genuinely amazing but it just gets so demanding as you progress through it. I ended up watching the second half of the game on YouTube.

What is your favorite game that you feel is really cool and special but you never felt the pull of actually finishing it, and why?

Fallout 4. I keep finding new mods and other stuff to do so I never really got around to finishing it, even though I put hundreds of hours in.

The main story is the worst part of the game, so nothing of great value is lost.

Finishing the main storyline can potentially block off whole questions depending on how you handle it. I usually progress it to a certain point and then stop.

IRC they just released the latest chapter of sim settlements, so yeah. I'll probably return to FO4 in a year or two. Fallout London is also progressing, so that should be interesting. Thanks to content mods, you can largely skip the main quests of the original game.

It's become the new skyrim.

I think skyrim's golden age of modding is largely a thing of the past, but I haven't played it in a few years (500+ mods at the time), so please correct me if I'm wrong.

Depends on if you count Skyblivion and Skywind as mods for Skyrim I guess

Yeah. How I am with it. Spend so much time modding that I never actually get around to playing it. Add that to thr mod that makes every building have an interior and suddenly even when I do play it it takes forever to get anywhere
