    Yesterday, I wrote a piece about how I consider my BOTW playthrough "finished" even though I did everything *except* beating the final boss. Anyway a bunch of people got angry at me, so now I want to know: Have you ever put down a game before the official ending? Why?

        My reason for not-quite-finishing BOTW was simple: if you never finish the game, you technically always have more to play. It kept it as a little time capsule in my mind, like a summer holiday that never ended. But apparently that makes me a lunatic who doesn't deserve games 😎

        I do this ALL the time. Not always right before the final boss, but frequently in what I perceive to be the end stretches.

        Frequently it's cause I don't want it to end, and so I procrastinate on playing, and then eventually I forget the controls and I don't want to start playing again and then it just fades away...

        Honestly all the time. I never find closure in boss fights usually, and the ones I've stuck it out to finish the boss fight often leave me unsatisfied. Also, sometimes I just get bored. I can get all the cool systems out of a game, still love and appreciate it, w/o finishing

        It's also not uncommon for a lot of (RPG) games to "wrap up" all loose ends right before the final battle anyway. there's often little of personal significance beyond that final stretch that i can't just google later.

        skyward sword, again just before the final boss, but only because I couldn't suffer through another motion control sword fight......... now there's a game begging for a remaster

        I DO NOT BLAME YOU. The Ghirahim fights make me want to bite my own hands off.

        AC odyssey. I enjoyed the game but there was just too much things in it and it was not cohesive enough for me to enjoy it. It had very bad pacing and story connectivity issues that it just made uninterested in playing it anymore.

        i dont finish like 99% of my games, and its often right before the end that i dont feel like playing anymore. might be a adhd thing.

        I've been thinking that too. Not officially diagnosed, but definitely have a ton of ADHD-style traits - I hyper focus on something for hundreds of hours, and then discard it forever
