    It doesn’t always work, but I have to just remind myself of games I played and finished in recent years that didn’t have any goal other than “Finish it”

    It helps me remind myself I don’t need some daily/weekly/monthly/wtfisthisshit goal, that the day isn’t wasted because I didn’t do those things.

      This is exactly the right path to take, imo.

      The only goal of playing a game should be to have fun and/or enjoy yourself. Any other goal can aid in that original goal but as soon as a goal (finish the game) becomes a chore, I quit and move to another game.

      We need to remind ourselves (me included) that games are for entertainment and to waste time. That’s it.
