For some reason as soon as I get to the “end” of the game, I completely lose motivation to play. This happened with DOOM: Eternal, Sekiro, Bloodborne, Paper Mario TTYD, Cassette Beasts, Shovel Knight, Oblivion, Baldur’s Gate, God of War, Mass Effect… Pretty much every game I’ve ever played. It’s like the fun part was the journey, and I’ve seen everything the game has to offer, and I just don’t really enjoy the ending process. Feels like a formality at that point.
This is me for sure. I’ll give that final boss all I got, but once it’s eaten up too much of my time, and is no longer fun, I check the game off my list and find another.
Most recently was Zelda 2. My save file is me slightly under leveled in the room before the boss, and he just wasn’t worth it.
