This is a common occurrence for me since I don’t have much time to play. I often get about halfway through and then stop playing for months. When I come back to it I always want to start from the beginning and then the cycle happens again.
One example for me is Fallout 4
Dark Souls. Its challenging gameplay and intricate lore make each playthrough a unique experience. Despite countless restarts, the satisfaction of conquering tough enemies and discovering hidden secrets keeps players coming back for more punishment and triumph.
