This question popped into my head when I was playing Void Stranger. I just got done with the game and will probably never play it again despite not finishing it. The game is genuinely amazing but it just gets so demanding as you progress through it. I ended up watching the second half of the game on YouTube.

What is your favorite game that you feel is really cool and special but you never felt the pull of actually finishing it, and why?

Noita, kinda. I've won a few runs and unlocked most of the secrets, but some of the late game quests just get absurd to the point of taking dozens of hours and even with a perfect god-mode setup there's still ways to get instakilled.

I love a game with depth and secrets but noita definitely reached the point of "y'know, I'm not having fun anymore. This is just work"

The sun quest was one of the wildest things I've ever done in a video game

Ahh man.. I haven't been able to get noita to launch recently. I followed every forum guide I could find and still no luck. It was my top game played on steam this last year. I miss it.
