Name the game
Expedition 33
Virtually every RPG Maker game.
I mean that image looks like the Witcher 3 to me OP. You can buy it on all platforms including G2A, Steam, GOG and the Epic Games Store. Be sure to get the critical acclaimed DLC too.
Happy I can help.
Control
Hotline Miami 2
just skip the sidequesting
thats what i do when shit gets boring
any game longer than 10 hours
persona 3/4/5/royal
Every single game thats over 20 hours
Tales of arise.
Recently? KCD2
any game shorter than 10 hours
The Witcher 3 actually. Main quest drags too much.
Any story on a GTA game.
yeah, definitely tales of arise. what a disaster of a second half.
elden ring, obviously.
Rise of the Ronin. The moment I understood nothing mattered in character progression I dropped the game. TN made it better with Nioh 2 and Wo Long.
Bg3.
I can't, for the life of me, force myself to finish third act and I reached it like 5 times.
level 11 by the time you enter Wyrm's crossing, 95% of builds are fully completed by then so leveling and progression are pointless.
Combat becomes boring, easy mode alpha strike formality, where you delete entire encounters before they even react due to Alert feat.
0 likeable characters, everyone is some sort of an asshole or weird sexual degenerate.
lots of great items that enable entire build archetypes are unlocked way too late into the game therefore they're useless.
the feeling of urgency and hype evaporates when the Absolute army gets stopped by steelwatch and the whole story becomes some low IQ political plot, probably written by the same guys who wrote GoT after running out of book material.
That game drops really fucking hard in third act.
Metaphor, i uninstalled before the final fight because they kept repeating shit for the last 20 hours and my brain just shut down from boredom
Honestly, Half Life 2. By the time I reach post-Nova Prospekt I am bored.
I got bored somewhere in mid act 2, I think. Just got tired of dungeons and bleak dark setting.
Elden Ring
Prey
Came here to post this, I'm 120 or 130 hours in, beat 2 DLC bosses, and I'm starting to ignore quests.
I got burnt out just playing the main game, can't imagine playing it with DLC back to back, unless you skip a shitload of stuff
Darkest Dungeon 2
Funny you picked this pic specifically because it was Witcher 3 for me. I dropped it after coming back to Caer Morhen and then going back to the main world space.
every single RPG ever made by an human being
the real challenge is to name a RPG that isn't like that
Kotor 1
The Witcher 3
The Witcher 2
Eternal Sonata
morrowind
unmodded skyrim too
Underrated
But for me, this was Persona 5 Royal's vibe after the original end bossfight, and the start of the Royal content. It just drags so much ass, and though I belived my friends when they said that it's so worth playing it to the end, it was really, really hard to force myself to boot it up again after killing a literal god, because what could top that?
Witcher 3
0 likeable characters, everyone is some sort of an asshole or weird sexual degenerate.
I unironically thought that people were just memeing when they said "the male followers try and suck your cock for no reason," but then my fucking lips curled in disgust when Gale, then Halsen, confessed to me out of the blue when I was just trying to plap Shart and do a bog-standard Human Male Fighter (Battle Master because it's what I always played on tabletop with my bros).
Needless to say, this along with the lesbian angel who makes it half her fucking personality ("Be off, I have a lover to tend to!"), was the point where I realized that I should've pirated. It's a shame too, because I fucking ADORED Divinity 2 and how refined the gameplay was there, how good and thematic the narrator was, and how the elemental system made the end of each look like a goddamned warzone. But with BG 3? It just feels like... yeah, it's the videogame you play where you want to scratch that 5e itch if your tabletop group cancels the weekly session, and not much more.

How is Divinity 2? I always get it mentally confused with Pillars. I'm a DnD player too but I've never played any turn-based CRPGs except for like the OG Fallouts and maybe shit like Undertale or Hylics or Fear and Hunger if they even count.
Needless to say, this along with the lesbian angel
Lmao I forgot about that hahaha. Wasn't there some scene where she grabs that goth priest bitch and just starts making out with her or something? I remember being very repulsed by them. I later physically recoiled when that nigger Wyll randomly started dancing towards me and asked for my hand. Gay ass nigga.
Thank God I wasn't stupid enough to buy this pozzed trash.
its so weird too because the characters are defined with their personality but their sexuality is for whatever reason completely malleable by the player and can go in any direction that the player wishes which is retarded. why arent the characters strictly defined as straight, gay or bisexual?
Oblivion Remastered. Getting sent to way too many caves and ruins. Haven’t played in like 15 years, I had no idea it was this bad. Especially since I relentlessly shit on Skyrim for doing the same thing.
Because the opposite of that is what Cyberpunk 2077 did where you're basically locked into two choices: fucking the single man you have access too or the single woman you have access too. Since most gamers are straight men you then have to choose between if you want to play as man the whole time to fuck the nomad Panam or play as a chick the whole time for lesbo sex with the gang-member hacker Judy.
Most Bethesda games
rebirth, though I suppose thats on me for doing all the bullshit side content but unfortunately it as 80% of the game with the other 20% being a cut scene of sephiroth showing up and saying some variation of Im waiting cloud
Skyrim
Oblivion
every mmo ever
every unreal engine 5 game ever
every AAA/A game ever
Honestly speaking? Divinity 2 is a game that, when you don't know what you're doing initially (it's the type of game that has zero real tutorial, and you're supposed to learn by watching a guide on Youtube), but once it "clicks" and you finally understand what's happening?
There isn't a game quite like it, I feel, and it is 100% worth a try if you liked the OG Fallouts. You don't have to know everything going in, as learning is part of the fun process (the biggest and most obvious tip I can give you is that there are no "Dedicated skill trainers or book sellers," and that you should open up the trade menu with everyone in the first real area, as the plagued woman will have skilbooks that focus on death and necromancy, the rogue in the rafters will have Scoundrel skillbooks, etc etc. Esoteric and unexplained stuff like that, but it makes sense once you do it once or twice); the elemental system is truly unique, and I'd actually tell you a funny story about the game. I tried it a few times early on, back in 2020 after buying it on a sale, and I played it blind. Had no fucking clue what I was doing, nothing was explained, and I got my ass raped in every encounter. Watched a few guides (no more than 10 minutes), did a little bit of watching about how people play the game on its hardest difficulty, and suddenly? I understood what was going on, everything clicked, and it became one of my favorite CRPGs; the writing is definitely reddit at some point, and there is a splash of DEI in the last act (just like BG 3), but the writing at points can also be stunningly good and impactful. The companions each have their own story going on, each of them feel like their own unique person who is worthy of your respect once you see what they have going on, and convincing each of them to support you and give up their own chance at divinity about halfway into the game? Still makes me smile when I think about it, one of my favorite scenes in any RPG.
tldr; it's good.

I fucked up that first paragraph. Don't shitpost while you're still waking up.
*Honestly speaking? Divinity 2 is a game that feels like CBT when you don't know what you're doing at first (it's the type of game that has zero real tutorial, and you're supposed to learn by watching a guide on Youtube), but once it "clicks" and you finally understand what's happening? It's like fucking crack, and every year or two I get the urge to reinstall JUST for that tight gameplay.
