Gaming related goals that you gave up

Open

So, I am about to give up on trying to get the S Rank achievements on My Friend Pedro and I thought of all the times I gave up on a gaming related goal. I also though it would be nice of me to remind other people of their personal failures. I refer to side quests, achievements, completion or just personal challenges, of course you can mention that game you didn't finish but there's already a thread for that.
Here are some I remember:

  • I gave up on trying Overdrill on Payday 2 (mostly because I didn't have friends to try with and it was always chaos with randoms).
  • I couldn't complete a single heist on Payday: The Heist.
  • I couldn't finish the Godmaster update on Hollow Knight.
  • I couldn't get the platinum relic on Crash Bandicoot's Stormy Ascent.
  • I couldn't even pass the first level of DOOM 2016 on Nightmare.
  • I couldn't get AAA on every mission on Killer is Dead.
  • I couldn't get the A-Rank achievements on Cuphead.
  • I couldn't complete the Castle level on Party Hard.
  • I can't understand the rhythm mechanic of Crypt of the Necrodancer.
  • I couldn't get the jump rope moon on Super Mario Odyssey I used a glitch for the sake of completion don't judge me.
  • I couldn't get the Fierce Deity mask on Majora's Mask but found out you can beat the game without it.
  • I couldn't complete the masks side quest on Ocarina of Time.
  • I couldn't win a single Tetris 99 game.
  • I still can't create a Mario Maker level I'm satisfied with.

And that's all I can remember, what about you?

I'm not sure I have completely given up on it yet since I just returned to the game a couple weeks ago for the birthday rewards and to check out the new Casino quest line and am currently trying to assamble a crew on PS4 but for me it's finishing the Doomsdays Heists (2nd Heist update) in Grand Theft Auto Online.

They are way too complex to play them with randoms and also require communication.

when there's a speedrun involved, ~90% of the times I give up before even trying.. >_>

Owning all FPS games on Steam.

Whilst I own 853 now, including some really rare removed games, there's simply too much shovelware on Steam.

Sort of gave up on Reveal. Started playing it a few days ago and got stuck on the 7th level (I think). No idea how to pass that and I'd rather not use a guide. I might get back to that in a few months, but, for now, definitely gave up on it.

2 achievements on She Remembered Caterpillars. I was unable to get them following tons of tries so I just moved on. It's been a few months at this point and I doubt I will ever go back for those achievements.

Sort of gave up on Layers of Fear. I mean I get too scared. However, I played the game first last year and I stopped at some point, out of fear. Then, I did go back to it (and advanced considerably more into the story) a few months ago, but gave up again ("for good, this time", I said to myself)...however, I recently played and was not scared of Dead by Deadlight which filled me with confidence, but the more I think about it, the more I think I'd still be unable to handle LoF.

Didn´t beat Rogue. And probably 1000 other things, but that was the first that came to my mind. Never got past level 16.
