If I'm really into something ,that'll be the only thing I play. That being said, If I'm liking a game but something comes out that intrigues me, I'll put it on the back burner so to speak and play that instead.

Only problem is I've done that a couple of times and I've now got a small backlog of games I like but haven't finished.

 

[SafeOrAlone]

Typically I play one game at a time, but with Quick Resume, I've found myself hopping to another game, when before I'd probably just turn the console off. It's much more inviting when you can get there in 10-15 seconds.

 

[teezzy]

Right now I'm playing lots of Tekken 7/Street Fighter 5
Then Golden Sun on my Wii
Then whatever the Discord Boyz wanna play

 

[spawn]

Single game until it's finished, but I will drop that game if it's not keeping my interest any longer

 

[Mr Branding]

Played one game at a time until a few years ago.
Total slut atm between 3 consoles.

 

[Space Runaway]

1 singleplayer game at a time, supplemented by (usually) 2 mp games.

 

[Halo is Back]

I'm a dirty swinger

 

[junguler]

one big meaty 100h+ game and a trashy podcast game at a time.

 

[Rolla]

One campaign at a time. But play multiplayers like BF/COD and fighting games.

 

[MiguelItUp]

It all depends honestly. If it's an incredibly engaging single player game, then I may just play that single player game. However, I can still play a multiplayer game on the side. Or multiple multiplayer games around the same time.

 

[Nico_D]

I usually have 1-3 games goinng on. One is something I mainly play, story-oriented, rpg, action...

One is usually some type of infinite game like a building game or rhythm game or something.

And the third one is something short or light or something you can play occassionally if I don't feel like playing my main game. At the moment it is Puddle Knights.

 

[TimeShinigami]

I try to stick to one at a time, but somehow right now i find myself playing Octopath Traveller, FFX-2, and Bloodstained all at the same time.

 

[Spidey Fan]

Me gaming

 

[aclar00]

I mainly stick to one game until i beat it, however, if i does feel like a chore and im not enjoying ot as much as i expected, then i will move on.

It also van take me a month to about 3 months or more to beat a traditional single player game. Not too much multipler lately.

 

[Griffon]

When I can I try to do two games in different genres. Usually a story based game and another more arcade/multiplayer type of game.

But then I forget about the least interesting one and focus on the remaining game because that one is that much better. It's often the story game that loses out (not always tho).

 

[Lupin3]

I just play whatever the fuck I feel like, whenever.

 

[TLZ]

If it's a game I'm really into, I'd play it til I finish it. Maybe possibly I'd play another just to break routine.

Otherwise I just keep switching between many games.

 

[Vagswarm]

I mostly play one game at a time and try to beat it before launching another, but not in a way that I'm rushing through it just to complete it and take "another off the list". I was doing that for a while, but it didn't feel like I was having any actual fun. I also tried playing multiple games at once but I always end up playing way too many and can't decide which one to continue with.

The hardest part is deciding which one to go with, until you realize they're not going anywhere. Once you get settled in (unless it's not enjoyable), it's pretty easy to just stick with it.

 

[ReBurn]

I just play whatever I'm in the mood for

 

[BaneIsPain]

1-2 games at a time then focus only 1 game to finish it.

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

Usually 1 at a time played until completion, 2 at the most (recently was alternating between Returnal and RE Village for example), I don't understand the ADD style of gaming jumping between a bunch of games and not finishing any of them.

I'll know within the first hour if the game is for me and worth continuing, sometimes even with the first 15 mins and if it's not clicking I immediately move on. Backlog is big due to constantly buying things on sale that I *will* eventually play as well as free PS+ offerings.

 

[crozier]

Multiple games at once, none of which I finish because I jump around and add additional games so often. It’s a sickness.

Cheers!

 

[THEAP99]

Let’s just say that game pass and quick resume are running a train on me

Lol same here. I am so used to just focusing on just two games at a time but gamepass is totally changing the way I play with how useful quick resume is

 

[Belmonte]

I play many games at the same time but there are rules:

* Not from the same franchise.

* Different genres. When it is not, it needs to be from different generations or with very different settings/mechanics.

I like many types of genres and I play very lengthy RPGs. It would be insane to not play Ghost n Goblins because I didn't finish Xenoblade yet. I would fear starting a new RPG if it was the case.

Seems to me it is the best approach because I'm always in the mood to play the game I'm currently playing.

The cons is that I need a lot of time to finish the games. But I complete almost every one of them.

 

[LordBlodgett]

Used to be one game at a time until finished, now a total slut. I tried and played 7 games this week between a couple new Gamepass games, the couple that I'm currently playing through, a brief fling with Forza Horizon 4, and a couple multiplayer games for something quick......

 

[ArtemisClydeFrog]

Usually like 4. MMO, an rpg or two, and whatever else
