My other thought was that lately I'm having a hard time buckling down and playing a video game from start to finish.

I have a massive back catalog, but my motivation is severely lacking. I would not consider myself a casual gamer, but I'm just playing games less and less

Are any of you having this same problem?

I've had a massive backlog for years and years and years, although mostly for lack of wanting to start something or putting it off until I can devote more of my attention to it. In fact, despite pre-ordering Pokemon Moon (which arrived late), I only got back to playing it last week. Prior to that, I hadn't even made it to the starter select scene (which, in SM, is almost a fucking hour into the game thanks to long-ass cutscenes and random nonsense).

Granted, in the case of Moon, it had several problems between arriving late (so my initial enthusiasm had dimmed a little), having so much filler in the beginning, the fact that I wanted to cut out a chunk of time to really devote my attention to it, and -- because it had arrived late -- I wound up getting some stuff on Black Friday/Cyber Monday which iirc arrived first including Final Fantasy Explorers which I quickly got crazy into and kept to that for several months. In fact, in terms of activity, FFEx is now my second-most played 3DS game at 183 hours (KIU still takes #1 with 470 hours)
