How many of your games do you finish?

Re: How many of your games do you finish?

I try to 'finish' most games I buy, in the sense of getting to the ending, but I don't think I've ever gone for 100%

I also often fail in actually reaching the ending...

I had to quote Spino's post because he and I appear to be similar in tastes! I've emboldened those that I've finished:

Master of Orion I (ditto)
Warcraft
Warcraft II
Codename Panzers: Phase One
Dawn of War
Dawn of War: Dark Crusade (just finished an Imperial Guard campaign)
Rune
Severance: Blade of Darkness - Damn, I loved these games (Ok, I prefer not to classify Rune or Severance as 1st/3rd person shooters because well... they're really more like deliciously violent 3rd person h&L (hack & slash). :clown:

I never managed to Finish Ultima VII, I'm sure it was due to corruption. (The game was on floppies)

Thief 1 & 2 also never finished. I actually had Thief 2 and never played it! Thief 1 I went as far as the level where everything is upside down, the weird level, and gave up. The zombe levels got annoying.

System Shock 2 is another one I gave up on, brilliant atmosphere superbly implimented but can be frustrating.

Other Games I've finished:

STW (All Factions/Sengoku Jidai Era/Hard)
MTW (Turks and Spanish/Early Era/Hard, also many 60% victories)
Baldurs Gate 2
Planescape Torment
Civ2
TIE Fighter
Doom
Doom2
Final Doom
Quake
Half Life
Half Life - Opposing Force
Half Life - Blue Shift
Hexen
Heretic

Probably some more but I can't think of them now. All in all I'm not good at finishing games. I suppose I don't play games to finish them, I play them for the playing experience. I usually get bored.

I was also a big fan of Severance: Blade of Darkness, probably one of the most underrated games of all time.

Re: How many of your games do you finish?

All the linear RPG's and FPS's I more often than not finished. Real-Time Strategy or linear Turn-based ones (those Disciples and Heroes of the world) I also mostly finished. I never could finish a TW, a Civilization, a Paradox game, or The Sims ( :wacky: ) without a cheat -- The Sims' ending being the gruesome death of my character(s) because its God and Creator feels a sadistic streak.

I don't know how you'd consider Morrowind and Oblivion "finished," however. Finishing every little quest in the corner, or just the faction/main quests? Or finishing everyone in the game (save for the guards and, for Oblivion, the bandits)?
