I'd like to hear how it turns out.
I rarely get a chance to spend hours paying games anymore, and when I finally do get the chance, I can't ever decide what I want to get into. I'm definitely better off focusing on one thing and milking it dry until something else grabs me. My son will flip through games for 15-30 minute intervals. He'll start up a new Fallout playthrough, shoot some things, and next time I turn around, he's fighting a boss in Elden Ring.
Haha yeah that's how I am most of the time. But occasionally I get the FOCUS on a thing and feel the urge to finish the thing RIGHT NOW.
