Hey everyone!
I really passionate about games but I struggle a lot to finish the storyline for a lot of them. There are some games I would love to finish like Eastward or Sea of Stars, but I feel unable to reasume them. I feel like if the game is not a dopamine trap(League or Civ VI) I can’t continue playing it.
Does anyone here has face this issue and have found a way to work on it?
At this point I just forgive myself for losing interest in really long games, and don’t enter into games with any expectation that I’ll finish them unless they’re a very compact experience. My two recent favourites that I actually finished are Duck Detective and Minami Lane, both only a couple of hours.
This is it. It’s your free time, OP. Don’t push yourself so hard and put these expectations on yourself to conform to how you’re “supposed” to enjoy things. In your daily life, you probably already have enough pressure to conform and have to put energy into working around your ADHD.
Just play a game for as long as you’re having fun. If it’s not fun anymore, whatever. It’s okay to move on to something else if you enjoy that more. If you really want to know how the story ends, you can always look it up or watch some clips.
