I'm just looking for closure
While playing video games can offer great joy, I've played so many and gotten so far without finishing them, and there they sit in my game collection just waiting for me to invest the time to seal the deal and save the princess or do whatever it is I'm supposed to do. I really do try to finish everything I start, but some games are so vast in scope that I get overwhelmed by all the options I have, and some games have a spike in the difficulty curve that prevents me from advancing unless I play it diligently until I'm lucky enough to overcome the challenge, and some games get slow and tedious and my life goes through a major change that erases my free-time and video games seem to be one of the first thigns I drop when that happens. Still, I really like to play them and when I fail to finish them, guilt weighs on my conscience and I wonder what the ending is like and I hope that my not finishing the video game doesn't reflect poorly on myself as a person. I want to follow through on everything I do.
It's like the Bookfair
WHen I was in 5th grade or 6th grade, my little sister got a book from the bookfair about analyzing handwriting, and it said that people who don't close the tops of their O's aren't good at keeping secrets, but if you made an effort to close your O's you could be better at it. Ever since then, I've completed the circle each time, just to be safe. I don't really come across a lot of secrets I need to keep, but I'm sure it's come in handy. If I ever start looking into a job that requires top-secret clearance, I've got a leg-up on the competition.
Saving the world
So, this is my plan for making everyone's lives easier and helping people in america (and any other country I suppose) conquer more of it's video games and generally feel better about themselves. You see, I intend to perfect a time machine, with which I will go back in time, to the 1960's or something like that, and find a location which is totally barren today (perhaps in Alaska or something) on which I will construct a huge building, filled with rooms which contain a TV, a Game system or computer, and a bean bag chair. People can then pay me to let them go back in time and play any game they've yet to complete, and when they're done, they'll be sent back to the present, mere seconds after they left. That way, noone loses time spent at work or being with their loved ones, and they feel better about themselves without all the tension of knowing they've failed to finish a video game. Trust me, it weighs heavily on your soul. Sure, it'd be easier to just use the capital required to construct a time machine to support myself indefinitely as I play Video Games with no other responsibilities, but I'm trying to save the world here, not just myself.
