I do not. I feel no particular obligation to finish anything, and most of the time I do I feel let down that there isn't more. I want enough to be able to play until I feel the desire to play something else, then have plenty more to explore next time that game scratches the right itch.
I think of games like books. I read for pleasure, if I'm not enjoying the book after a decent try I start a different book. I only have so much time in my life to play games and read, no need to spend it on something I'm not enjoying.
Lol books I'll read (mostly listen to) series from start to finish and reread the full series (occasionally with regularity). I just finished the 26 books of Karen Rose's Romantic Suspense Series and 5.5 books into CJ Archer's Glass and Steele series. I love longer form story arcs. I will cut out of truly bad books occasionally but it's rare. I do more often decide after finishing a book not to read the next one.
But I don't really do video games for the story telling, so I don't have anything to be hooked to.
This describes me perfectly. As an example, I have had Skyrim since the original release and never beat it. I enjoyed playing around in the world until I went on to other things. I can always go back and play some more when I want. I like having a large world there for me to explore and interact with on my own time.
