Diagnosing Completion Anxiety Disorder
Some of you may remember,
way back in my blurb introducing myself to Kotaku, I mentioned I'm bad about
not finishing games. I wasn't kidding. I have completed an embarrassingly low
number of games, and I always though this made me a bit of a freak amongst my
fellow gamers. But according to an opinion piece by Leigh Alexander of
Gamesetwatch and Gamasutra, I may not be quite the abnormality I thought I was.
She argues that gamers on the whole are completing fewer games now than they
did in the past. There's a whole host of reasons she suggests as to why this is
happening: Too long? Not engaging enough? Too challenging? No time to finish?
Alexander's reason I identify with most with is inability to part with the
experience. When you put hours and hours into character development, quests,
and skill honing, it's hard to break away from that experience with the
conclusion of a game.
