I’ve been coming to a similar place recently as well. I really like that analogy to countries, helps to reframe and remove the guilt I feel sometimes for bouncing off titles. Being a bit of a completionist, I’m always concerned that I’ll leave a game half experienced and feel like I’ve got a dangling thread in my mind.

Similarly, I’ve been trying to read more, whether that means finishing a book or not. I’m a very slow reader, so I’m always agonizing over picking up a book because I’m not sure I can commit the months to finish it.
