Yeah, same with me. Finishing a game is the worst, as it’s inevitable, and then we’re faced with finding another game to play. And if it was a really great game you just finished, sometimes you just can’t help but feel depressed, even though I do usually get over it pretty fast. Occasionally, though, I can miss a game for a good several weeks after finishing it.

I identify mostly with the first. When I finished Dragon Age and Mass Effect for the first time, it really did feel like, “Now what?” Usually I do get excited when I find a game that’s equivalent to an epic game I’ve just finished. At least this game annoyance is only temporary.

Thanks, losing game saves really is annoying isn’t it. It can completely kill a games appeal if the loss strikes at the right time.

I wish it were easier to delay ending a game or tv series sometimes. The problem is that when one gets you sucked in, you wan to know everything about it. Which leads to burning through a game or show a little too quickly to properly enjoy it.

I’d argue that it’s almost worse when every question is answered. You can’t fill in any blanks yourself or speculate. The hope of a revisit to the game world in the future is also dashed.

Post-plot play is weird isn’t it? It sounds great in theory, who doesn’t want to have more happening in the game after the main plot? But more often than not, it just feels like so much padding. Unless it’s established from the beginning that the main plot is only a small piece of what’s going on in the world, all desire to do the post-plot stuff kind of evaporates.

First of all, I can relate to almost everything that you’ve said but one thing that I’m sure is the worst experience for me is when I’m almost far (for example in sims) when I’ve already had too much money and my account is alreadt pregnant. I am really happy about that and suddenly my laptop/computer dies without saving it not as if SIMS has autosave.. :/ it always happen to me, its not that my pc sucks but I think I overuse it at times even when I’m watching a marathon and it died. OMG I always cry. I hate it when I’m not yet done with what I’m doing and it dies. Poop. Secondly, before I had my pc, my brothers and I always share the use of pc and the worst thing I hate is that when I’m playing and my older brother would come up to me saying “finish that or save it, I’ll use the computer” I hate that especially when I’m on the verge of playing. Well Lastly, I don’t think I have any other worst moments or maybe I do but I already forgot. (Kuddos to you. Nice post)

I really relate to that first one. That’s why I often put off finishing games (and TV shows I’ve been marathoning, etc.) because I don’t want it to end!

Yeah, finishing anything that draws you in as deeply as a game is a horrible experience. It’s kind of like losing a loved one or a bad breakup, but far briefer and far more compact. It’s especially terrible with a series, whether all your questions and concerns are answered or not.
