I rarely do that, but when I do, it’s not a case of too boring (those I just forget about entirely). It’s the kind of game that feels so wrong I just have to see how bad it gets.

Okamiden on the DS is my go-to example. Absolute fan of the original, but I finished that pseudosequel in one long, angry session.

Another would be Pokémon Pearl. Terribly balanced with the most tedious world to traverse I’ve experienced in a Pokémon game. It was part of a gen 4 to gen 7 playthrough with dex transfer so I committed to it. Black, Z, Alpha Sapphire, Moon? Yeah, had fun with all of them. Pearl was complete ass.
