Problems With My Games Finished List
A few people have asked if my list is all inclusive, and truth be told it is not. As the list only include games one they are finished, and not all games have definitive "ends". This is a flaw in the system, and one I have yet to find a way around. Suggestions are welcome.
Tetris 99, Lumines Remastered, Cities: Skylines, Overwatch, are all games I play frequently. None of which have a logical ending. Yes there are modes in games like Lumines that have an end, but there aren't necessarily the main modes, and there is still much content to be had outside of these modes. Is Overwatch over once you have gotten every loot item? How does one count an MMO, it is having the best gear at a given moment, or is just seeing that (current) last raid enough? I don't know.
So, from time to time I will mention other games I playing that don't "end" in a traditional sense. It is far from a prefect solution, but it is the best one I can think of.

More Crackdown 3 and Far Cry 5
So I finished both of these games. While both were enjoyable experiences, they were also extremely short. The two combined took less than 20 hours to complete. Crackdown 3 being a worse offender taking only about 7 hours.
In both games, I was taking my time, trying to do all that could be done. I thought both games maps looked large enough that just exploration would take while. Sadly, this was not the case.
These are both AAA big releases. It seems to be a game that goes for 60$ should be a little longer.

Crackdown 3 and Far Cry 5
So I started playing two games on the same day: Far Cry 5 on the PS4, and Crackdown 3 on XB1. These games have a surprising amount in common, which I really didn't expect.
They are both sandboxes centered around freeing parts of the map to take on the lieutenants of an "evil" organization. How do you free parts of the map in both games? Killing NPCs. Go to place, remove all the NPCs in it, and it is now yours. This is the main activity in both games, while one allows for more stealth, and the other for more direct assaults, both are possible in both games.
Both games handle vehicles in deeply flawed ways. In Crackdown 3 they serve virtually no purpose, as the player character has more speed and mobility when on foot. In Far Cray 5, you can start flying a plane with literally no speed build up or runway.
NPCs characters are often around to "help" in both games. And in both games, they never really seem to actually do anything. They show up, they are firing their guns, but none of the opposing NPCs ever seem to be killed by their actions. Making the inclusion in both games pointless.
Evil organizations have taken over the maps of both games. One is a morally corrupt business, the other is a religious cult. I guess both could be described as Apple.
