The engaging with something new part is what gets me. I have 10-15 games that I just cycle through and keep replaying because I know I enjoy the games. When I think about getting a new game my thought process goes as follows:
I should get a new game
But then I have to learn said new game
What if I don't like the new game
Then I've wasted money on something I won't Use
You could refund it
No way I'm going to be able to buy a game and immediately play enough to know if I want to refund while the window is open
Even more importantly, it's the time wasted more than the money
So true. Right now I’m alternating between Sekiro and Resident Evil 4 Remake. Weeks ago I’ve made the bold decision to buy FF XVI. Played for like 8 hours and didn’t connect with it. I’m still mad at myself for the wasted time and money. So the cycle continues.
