Baldur’s Gate 3 is a very long game. I played past the start to Act 3 but for some reason put it aside for a period. When I came back to it, some 80 hours in, I had no idea where I was in the story or what my goals were.
I could play on, well behind the eight ball, or I could start again. Instead, I put it on my Gaming pile of shame.
And the world did not end.
Nor did it end when I put aside Kingdom Come Deliverance because I wasn’t enjoying it.
Unlike books, which many are ashamed to put aside, every gamer has a large Gaming pile of shame which they are perfectly ok with. Although we can feel guilt about not finishing every game we have, we also know it’s simply not possible.
We know it’s ok to quit.
