This is a common theme among my friend group so I thought about asking this on Reddit!

Is there a particular game that you THINK about playing but doing so in actuality is kind of boring?

With me, sometimes I “romanticize” playing this game called Warno on Steam. However, when I go to actually play it, I get exhausted trying to relearn the controls and the whole match setup process so I quit.

In my head, it’s more fun to play! But when I go to actually play it, I get bored or I just don’t have the tolerance to play it.

What game is better in your mind than it is in real life?

Does this happen to you?

    It Takes Two. I want to do a full playthrough, but it’s co-op only and it’s hard to find a player who will actually stick with you through the whole thing.

    Outer Wilds

    Probably an incredible experience

    I don’t think I’ll ever play it for more than an hour

    Skyrim VR

    I own it. I’d love to get lost in its world. I know whenever I fire it up I feel like a God.

    It’s just too much. The idea of it sooths me, however.

    Hate that I’m saying this, but Xenoblade chronicles. Got stuck on a boss and i loathe the amount of grinding I’ll need to do to beat it. Chronicles 3 was such an easy play though, at no point did i feel like i was trudging through it. Hopefully I’ll want to play it again soon, as i know I’ll LOVE the story and characters…i feel guilty even typing this LOL

    I think I’ve beaten Margit/Mohg in Elden Ring about 10ish times with vastly different characters/play orders every time and still haven’t found the next big bad.

    I finally started Nier: Automata a few weeks ago but only got to the first save point. I think I will pick it back up, I did the same with Stray which I ended up really enjoying.

    Street fighter 6. Got it and only ever play it 5 minutes at a time because I find it so overwhelming to learn and practicing inputs felt too repetitive to do while staring at my backlog of other games. I went so far as buying a stick as well since I grew up with SF2.
