    Default Do you have this problem with RPG's?

    I find that I play through an RPG steadily but once Im at the last level I leave the game and dont come back to it for ages. Im at the final boss on FFII, IV and ffV along with some other games and have absaloutely no intention of going back to finish them off. This seems odd even to me and Im the person whos doing this. I've been at the last level of FFIV for roughly three years or more.

    I have the opposite problem. I'll play an RPG extensively, not be about 10% through, then leave it for like a few years sometimes. Xenogears, Fallout 2 and Morrowind were all victims of the "delay effect", and turned out to be games I ended up obsessing over.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    I actually do the same thing. I run out of steam for the last level. Not because I'm afraid of the boss or anything, I just know that it's gonna be difficult to get through the final dungeon. I'm having this problem with FFX currently.

    Also, don't let FFII's last dungeon decieve you, the difficulty plateaus on the 3rd floor of Pandaemonium, and it's not even that much worse than the Jade Passage.

    Maybe it has something to do with your subconcious? I know after I beat an RPG I always get a sad feeling like, "Man, that's over. Now what am I gonna do " It even overpowers the sense of accomplishment at beating the game. Maybe you don't finish them to avoid that?

    In the case of Final Fantasy, yes. I only care about the story. I know how the thing will end, so I don't see the point in going through a bunch of battles just to see just another crappy ending. I'd finish a lot more of the FF series if they let you roam around the worlds after the final battle, basking in the glory of your victory and so on. But yeah, I'm the same, I never really finish games.

    I would. Me and my friend made a list of games we have and the games we played. If we beat it we mark it with a red pen on the margin side. It's not a competition. Just to share stuff. I might make a thread so you guys can help me with tips on games I haven't beaten yet....

    I know, but that's why I love and hate Final Fantasy.

    no


    By which I mean, Im certainly not emotionally attatched to FFII, IV or V.

    I always get sad at that point and don't stop playing until I've beat it and then I go cry.
    I like Kung-Fu.
