Need tips, when is a non-campaign game considered 'completed'? (lemmy.zip)

I like to keep track of my games that I have completed, with most of the games it is pretty easy. When the credits roll, I consider them beat, there are a few exceptions of course like Nier, Resident Evil 2 etc. What I struggle with are fighting, racing games and 4x games. I enjoy these genres, but I don’t know what is “satisfactory” amount that would make me think that I played these games to completion.

Some examples:

  • Guilty Gear Strive (or any fighting games that are not Mortal Kombat, injustice or SF6)
  • Civilization 6
  • Project Cars

Just play until you don't feel like it anymore. If you need a milestone, clear a match/run/whatever on the highest difficulty. Or maybe every variety, so in Civ, a victory of each type. Or if you feel like going hard, find a rating you want to get and get there, like Celestial in Strive. I would say just play until you feel satisfied though. Don't worry about what others think of your completion metric. None will satisfy everyone.

Thank you! I would like to say that this is not for anyone, but myself. I just like to keep a tally for myself to make my way through my backlog, I almost never feel satisfied with just doing some match in civ for instance, so I like your idea of getting different win types.
