Picking up a RPG after not playing it for 6 months

>Picking up a RPG after not playing it for 6 months.

I understand completely.

I do this every summer with dragons dogma, do 1 or 2 quests then get lost on what to do next

>Playing an RPG that doesn't keep track of your current quest or current point in the story

I will literally never finish these.

>Its a multi-disk RPG

I stopped playing Breath of Fire III for two hours and I have no idea where the fuck I'm.

are you me?

>What the fuck was I even doing here?

Everytime. it's just not the same, so i redo the SAME fuckign character and hope i'll finish the game this time ( but i never do)

Games saves were a mistake.

IT KEEPS HAPPENING

never reply to me again

This is me with every game like this.
Civ games, City Builders, Dwarf Fortress/Rise to Ruins/Rimworld and other base-building games.

You get so focused on managing dozens of statistics and queues and perhaps hundreds of citizens that you can't just jump back in and pick up where you left off.

Never reply to me or my post ever again.

I've played, started over, and never finished Ni no Kuni like 3 or 4 times now because of this very thing.

>picking up an RPG after 8 years of not playing

I know this shouldn't be a complaint, but the game is way longer than it should have been. And that Drippy fairy thing is annoying as fuck.

too accurate, and then it doesn't feel like your getting the full experience out of it because you didn't finish the game with minimal play sessions

me right now with KOTOR 2
last time I touched it was on March

I liked drippy

And I liked your mom.

I would just start the game from the beginning at that point

I've done this three times with The Witcher 3 so far. Everytime I play, I get to Skellige and just stop playing for some reason. No idea why; it's a pretty fun game.

I can even relate that with Minecraft. Whole motivation when you come back is gone for that world

Thanks Tactics Ogre, wish every game did this.
