This question popped into my head when I was playing Void Stranger. I just got done with the game and will probably never play it again despite not finishing it. The game is genuinely amazing but it just gets so demanding as you progress through it. I ended up watching the second half of the game on YouTube.

What is your favorite game that you feel is really cool and special but you never felt the pull of actually finishing it, and why?

I like skyrim, but completing it is kind of missing the point IMO. The draw is to install a whole bunch of new mods and see if the game still works.

I had 200 hours played and still never beat the main game. Did everything up to that point.

you're not even really missing anything either. The endings kind of nothing. You unlock the ability to yell a few different summons and can optionally get a cool looking hat that kind of sucks, though.

get a cool looking hat that kind of sucks, though.

Sucks like it's not good or sucks like that one part of Lazlo's really cool hat made of witch skin that gently sucks the back of his head?

I'd like to enjoy it as you do, I have never played it but I have it on Switch and PS4, so when I get to it, it will be modless.

I probably spent longer trying to get mods to work than actually playing the game.

Me and most games that I have ever installed mods for

I'm heavily modding Skyrim VR currently and now that .esl support was back ported, I'm hovering around 400 mods. It's joyous, and I'm afraid how much I may break at the same time. Nexus Collections are helping as well. Maybe I'll test MO2 one of these days.

I have never completed or even come close to finishing the game. And I was a day one 11/11/11 purchase lol.
