picking up where you left off in an RPG/sandbox game unappreciation thread

[chemicalsword]

I want to finish skyrim so fukkin bad... the universe is against me on this one. first disc got stolen by hotel housekeeper so I bought a second disc (used copy... big mistake). think I only saved $7/8 or some shyt. didn't buy the warranty... didn't play it for a couple of months... finally got around to playing it.. shyt has a minor scratch. about an hour and a half in shyt starts to freeze. bytch freezes when i try to go to the the riverwood tavern or when i approach white oak. tried cleaning disc... doesn't work. tried entering these locations like 20 times. frustrated as fukk. about to see if its in the playstation store for download. if not I'm jumping in new vegas.....

it makes me not wanna play that shyt..

but i hate starting over so i just never get around to finishing it.

happens with me and books too.

Books? I HAVE to finish a book. I've only twice given up on a book. The first time was because the book was just terrible (F Scott Fitzgeralds Tender as the night), and the second time was because I forgot my place and wanted to start something else (Zen of Creativity).

This exact shyt happened to me the other day. I got on Skyrim, then ended just up killing guards for about 20 minutes. After that I had no idea what to do and just hopped on 2k

This is exactly why i havent finished skyrim.

When it first came out i was going in hard.

But then a new game came out and was getting played more.

Tried to go back to my skyrim months later n had completely forgot what i was doing n shyt.

Every time i try play it im back off in 10 mins

Damn, nikkas, Skyrim is hella easy to get back into. Just go to the quest log and read what it says do

Skyrim is easy but not if you've been fukking around. I remember I had this goal to get the illest looking armors and costumes, enchant them bytches, and rule the land on some fly shyt. I had a bunch of online wardrobe guides up when I was doing it. I also had an enchantment chart because you can't use every enchantment on every piece of clothing. Anyway, I was also storing components of these outfits in various chests in my various houses.

Long story short I turned it on about a month ago and didn't feel like bringing up all that shyt and figuring out how far I had come.

Same thing happened with Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. I used to play it every day now I have no idea wtf I'm supposed to do or which characters I need to build up.

I guess maybe I don't have that problem with games like that I definitely didn't have that problem with FFTA or FFTA2

No lie, this happened to me last week when I decided I would finish Skyward Sword after a year layover. I was in the middle of a dungeon and ran around in circles swinging my sword. Then I finally just said screw it.
