I have only ever quit two games out of pure fear. The first, Alien: Isolation, I noped out of as soon as Creative Assembly's horror masterpiece introduced multiple Queens into the fray. The second is a little more unexpected, given its fearsome reputation as a stone-cold classic: after about 20 hours, I dropped Elden Ring for a full year.
Yes, the game is hard as nails – but that's not why I left it collecting digital dust on my PS5's hard drive.
