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?

A mod, not a game, but Terrafirmacraft.

I deeply love every part of it, except the ore prospecting system. I always use commands to find my first copper vein because I find it so grindy otherwise. Doesn’t help that the vast majority of TFC’s progression is locked behind copper.

So I guess technically I’ll probably never complete the game legit.

The same devs went on to make Vintage Story and finding copper there can also be a real pain. It's kind of wild to hear their Minecraft mod having the same issue.
