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?

Maybe similar, but I was (and still sometimes) abandoning games and start playing another one instead.

Its like I am unable to play something for a long time and no matter how good a game is I loose focus and it becomes repetitive.

I partially managed to overcome this by focusing on the main game and ignoring most optional stuff or just simply lowering the difficulty to breeze through the story part.

Still not ideal, but I am actually finishing games these days.
