What's a game you loved and enjoyed so much that you didn't want it to end?

You’ve probably experienced this before…

You’re playing a long game that actually HAS an ending of some sort or way that you can beat/finish it (as opposed to ones that are ongoing and you can keep playing any time you want, like a casual sort of game) and you’re approaching the end of it. And you can’t help but feel a little twinge of sadness that it has to end. It’s such a great game that you kind of wish it would go on forever…or at least another 60 hours or so. :stuck_out_tongue:

What’s the last game you’ve played that made you feel that way?

There’s been many for me: Batman games, Resident Evil 6…
…but the most recent has been BioShock Infinite.
Whyyyyy? Why does it have to end? :mad::frowning:

Borderlands 2 was bittersweet. I wanted to kick Jack’s face in so freakin’ bad. But I also didn’t want it to end I was having so much fun.

Fortunately Tiny Tina’s expansion, which is the best DLC ever, gave the chance to play some more story, and kick Jack’s face in again.

Portal 1 was great but too short

the ending is disappointing too: you die in a fire

Yeah to both of those… B2 and both Portals. Half-Life. And I guess it counts as a game with no end, but I’d give a lot for one more good session in City of Heroes.

Tiny Tina? Really? Scarlett, babe. Cap’n Scarlett.

Zelda: Ocarina of Time

I know…they set themselves for a “false advertising” lawsuit

I have yet to finish the main plot of Skyrim. I played the hell out of the game for about a hundred hours, then tapered off partly out of a desire to savour the game. I’ll get back to it one of these days.

You’re trying to whoosh people, right?

Dark Souls 2. I craved so many more kicks in the junk !

I really hope he is. Otherwise he missed one of the most fun boss fights of any game. Plus,

The sense of urgency leading up to it, even though the game is still going at speed of plot.

Quoted for truth.

Everyone should play it. Amazing.

Beauty of Skyrim is you can replay it as a diff char, emphasizing different skills / quests.

Zelda: Links awakening.

When I first played that as a kid it completely engrossed me from start to finish. I spent day after day doing nothing but play that game, and its amazing to me now to think that a game of that depth was created on something as basic as a Gameboy.

Got Witcher 2 from Steam Summer Sale. Played through first time, it was great. More noticeable than most (to me) is that by the time you get great armour, weapons and moves, the game is over - it’s not open-ended. Granted, you can play through making different choices, following different paths but I was like “I just got all this cool stuff, and it’s over?”

Ah well, there’s Witcher 3, when it comes down some from $75.

The original Deus Ex was so well made that I did not want it to end. In fact as soon as I finished it the first time I started right back up with it.

Risk. That’s my final answer

Mass Effect 3, only because I knew it was ending the series and I doubt I’ll find a game I ever loved as much as those three.

I didn’t even care ABOUT the ending (it was whatever to me), I just didn’t want to leave that world.

Really? Huh. I’ve gone at it with two characters and found it fairly tedious. I like TT as a character and parts of the DLC are amusing, but… bawwwrinnngggggg.

Maybe I’ll get back to it, as I’ve exhausted the other content.

Now Hammerlock’s DLC - I seem to be in a majority that told it to fold up and get deleted after the third or fourth encounter with uber-powered foes. BL/BL2 is not about endless mission difficulty and impossible bosses.

Just a small taste. I know I don’t want to wait for it…

I really only get this problem with good Early Access games that aren’t done yet: Grim Dawn, the Darkest Dungeon, StarCrawlers. Of course they have the upside that eventually there’ll be more, just gotta wait.

It’s really worth the 75. It’s risen to parity with Planescape:Torment in my personal pantheon, and that’s fucking saying something and then some.

Treat yourself. If you that means starving your kids to death, well, you can make others :slight_smile:
