Do you ever feel like there isn't enough time to play all of the best games? Today I decided to actually answer that question - can you play every good videogame out there in a lifetime?

"Average gamer plays about 1 hour a day" *thinks about how long I play games each day* "Wait, I play abnormally long compared to even other gamers?"
The biggest breaker for completion is those games with life counters.
I for one love leaving the game with the counter maxed out. That's easy to farm in every game. 😅
i mean i play literally nothing on week days but then 7 hours on weekends.
Same. Since Terraria 1.4 has been released, ive kitten a day into one character.
Question
Do you have a job, school, or have a family? Most people with those.hardlt have much time.
I play for like 7 hours 0.0
It's much worse in lockdown though, when I don't have to go to school.
"Good" depends on mood. I'm sure I'm not the only with hundreds of games on steam and "nothing to play."
Mood. I have like 50 games on Steam, not including console games, and I feel this like all the time.
Yeah, but he laid out a clearly defined definition of "good games" for the purposes of this video. As for the second part of your comment, that's just hashtag firstworldproblems for ya. I relate. But we are so spoiled in this day and age lol
I have 395 games and i only play terraria and the binding of isaac 😂
Also, sometimes a good game becomes boring after a while
When I was a kid, I couldnt have many games, but enjoyed each one;
Now that I can have any game that I want, I dont enjoy them as much and get sick of them faster... funny right?
This’s probably one of the sickest openings ever. Short, simple, and to the point
Right!!!
It's sick.
“Hey all, Scott here.”
@@chimcham300 lol
Pulled a MrBeast on us
As they saying “Too much of a good thing, is never a good thing”
I guess that’s true because there are so many good videos games that I want to play but don’t always have the ability to play them all.
At least there's too many instead of too little.
@Student Zachary Torres Mine is like 6 videos I still havent gotten around to watching.
The amount of playlists ive saved though....
Jwittz: “The average gamer only plays video games for about one hour a day”
Me: *Nervously looks at the 450 hours I’ve put into animal crossing in 2 months*
Jwittz: “Even I only play games for about 2 hours a day”
Me: *cries*
I only play 7 hours a day =
*looks at tyler1 who played 16 league of legends on average for 3 months, which is basically 1/3rd of his day including sleep*
I feel attacked
@@xstoofpeer Well yeah, but it's basically his job isn't it?
That’s nothing I max out three Pokémon and probably having almost 8000+ hours invested in shiny hunting with 462 with sun, moon, crystal, and ultra sun shinies
> You can't play every "good" game ever made
Guess I'll die
Id that meme still alive?
Here lies a gamer
2020-2020
"You can't play every good game ever made smh"
8-year-old me who tried to compile every game he ever wanted based on metacritic scores finds the amount of time you spent on this relatable
Daniel Johnson good for you
I did this but then never finished them
And to think of all those NEW good games that come out while you try and beat the OLD good games.
“Less than an hour of homework a day”... I wish...
well you're doing some 4-5 hours a day or so during uni/college/whatever, and once you're done, you no longer have homework. so all the days you don't have homework bring down the average time of homework that you had so high when young
I have 7+ hrs of homework, I'm only doing 15 credits per semester but during last semester I didn't do anything accept homework.
@@TheRunningLeopard I mean that sounds accurate lol
Bruh, that's an average. He says less that 1 hour of homework a day because for the rest of your life you are going to do 0 hours. You pretend to graduate some day, right?
@@ElWeebDelBarri Wait, you're allowed to graduate? Like, just...leave school? Well dangit. Wish I knew that before I spent 42 years in high school.
Oh, youre a hardcore gamer?
Name all games.
what does memory account for being hardcore? hardcore is a life choice.
Not possible to do. There are many games that were finished but never released, and are only known to those that worked on them. Then there's remasters, ports, and sequels, many of have the same name as their originals (KIller Instinct (SNES and XBone), Super Smash Bros (64 and Wii U/3DS, Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis and '06)). There's also the fact that many games have different titles between regions, like in the UK where all Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games have to be renamed Teenage Mutant HERO Turtles.
Unless someone with an eidetic memory were shown every video game in existence (at least everything that counts as a video game) there's no way someone could recite them all from memory.
All games
@@russellbrown6888 You're clearly not a hardcore gamer then smh
@@russellbrown6888 CASUAL DETECTED
There are too many good shows, movies, games, etc.
We just need to spend our time wisely and just do the things we truly enjoy. Life is all about choices.
Amen, brother.
Thank you for your wisdom, Just Some Guy without a Mustache.
like you spend your time wisely
"Life is about choice." HA, I *wish* it were that easy. Like, imagine actually getting to *choose* how to spend your day. Nah, man, life isn't about choice, it's about *money*. The only people with choice are those lucky few who have a shitton of money.
I get this existential dread every single day i look at my switch, steam, 3ds, and ps4 library
Same
And your Europa Universalisisisiziz?
I FEEL THIS.
i looked at my ps4 library and... decided to play atelier sophie again even tho i have the plat trophy. i feel you
@@russianbot8576 Good taste though.
I really love these more experimental mad scientist-esque videos like the A Button video, the make everything portable video. I love this video for taking that concept of trying to accomplish something crazy not on the tech-building side.
WittzGaming spelunky?
Those were some gamer moments man
As someone who loves & consumes many forms of media (games, shows, movies, anime, YT, etc.), the crushing realization of how little time there is forces me to be cynically selective & dismissive of a lot of potentially great content.
that yuusuke avatar tho says you have your life straightened out son
Spirit gun
Sad I probably won't try you you Hakusho out
I mean, I had my suspicions. But the fact you went to the effort of crunching the numbers, really fun little experiment.
And I agree, a great little distraction. Perfect end to my day.
5 year old Jwittz had a veggitales felt on his wall, my life is complete
"Hey, have you played-"
"I DON'T HAVE TIME!!!"
I'm glad JWittz posted this since I'm always amazed by how every video-game UA-camr says "I played this obscure video-game for three years straight when I was a kid." It boggles my mind how much free time kids had in the early aughts!
“The average gamer only plays games for an hour a day”
Me: looks at my friend’s 1000 hours on Splatoon 2
Me: I’m not so sure about that
I think they are too busy playing games to take part in a survey
"Average." Your friend is and outlier.
@@AntoanArcana more like casual and mobile gamers deflate the number.
Most who have gaming as their main hobbie, tend to have sessions of 2-4 hours.
Splatoon 2 came out just over 1000 days ago, so it's actually possible your friend is playing an average of one hour per day.
i came to the conclusion that thre is just too much enterntainment out there from videogames to movies and tv shows its imposable to ever be caught up
It becomes Analysis paralysis
I never watch TV and I watch movies rarely. So it's basically UA-cam and video games for me.
Exactly. Well, if you work, you have to balanced everything. I'm so behind on movies, animes and video games. So many good animes and video games to watch. I had to make a schedule to keep all of this balanced. Monday, tuesday, Wednesday are my anime days 5 or 10 episodes in those days. Thursday is a random day, I could either play video game, watch anime, tune on Netflix for a movie, or just sleep. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday is my video game days. Sometimes on Sunday nights, I rarely do a anime night and just watch 5 episodes before I turn in for work
MetalSonicGamerX200 that’s a really good schedule you got there
Thanks for sharing me the torture of this vid. Being good varies too. I can't stand Ys 8 and dragon quest 11 because the girl is horribly annoying. I like I am setsuna despite people complaining too much snow. It has far faster load times and doesn't get lazy with recycled plots/NPCs as destiny connect tick tock travelers.
There's a point so many people are overlooking in this video.
World of Outlaw: Sprint Cars 2002 received an 8.3.
Can you play EVERY good videogame?
Technically yes, the title doesn’t specify how much of each game you have to play, so you can play about an hour of each game and you would be able to play every good game, COMPLETING every good video game is a different story however.
yeah COMPLETING games like Jirard "The Completionist" would easy quadriple that time requirement or even more, as completing a game is far longer in scope than just finishing the game.
Personally I like finishing games. Playing isn’t substantial, when someone asks me if I’ve played a game and I haven’t finished it, I don’t feel comfortable telling them that yes I’ve played that game, for example I played maybe 1/3rd of Bayonetta, but I don’t feel like I can say I’ve played it with a straight face even though I technically have. Same with Yakuza, Final Fantasy 7, Tales of Symphonia, God of War, Spider-Man and lots more. All games I’ve played but have not finished, and all games I don’t like telling people I’ve “played.” Completing on the other hand is just too consuming and often times can turn a fun experience into a drag. I love the Kingdom Hearts games for instance, but I have never completed them because there is so much grinding involved in those games that completing them just wouldn’t be fun even though I really enjoy them. So finishing games is the sweet spot I think, finishing + the fun side stuff is good too.
Well said.
I feel horrified with myself seeing that I’ve put about 500 hours into Animal Crossing in two months.
Wow
500? im over 800 GOML d00d. ;p
E: actually over 850
Well there are 1460 hours in two mounts
I was looking at the played games list of all my Switch friends yesterday and saw that one person logged over 800 hours in ACNH already. I’m only at around 250 hours so far though.
I've done the same!
Been a long time sub and honestly bro loving the direction you're going with these vids, I guess the best compliment I can give is that I love sitting down with a nice meal and watching your vids. Please keep it up, you're making good stuff! Bless up!
Me:Huh JWittz hasn't uploaded in awhile.
JWittz: *Tired AF* "I finished!"
I mean, Glover is only about 4 1/2 hours long, so if you set aside an afternoon you can play the only good video game ever made
That game is such a chore, lol.
@TheJWittz happy to see the first youtuber I got into upload some more cant wait to see what else you got in store!!! Great work on this video too!
Meanwhile I’ve got about 100 games in my backlog yet I keep replaying my favs instead
8:04 "and then you've got du ..... PLICATE games" Idk why I laughed so hard at this!! lol
I think this might be one of my favorite videos of yours. The work you put into this is incredibly evident and it's immensely interesting. Thank you for taking the time to do this. A shame it isn't performing as well as it should.
I've been watching you for a long time now, and this is definitely one of the most interesting videos you've ever done. keep it up man, no stagnation here
We've seen it all ladies and gents, gone from "wasting time" playing video games, to complaining about not having enough time.
Then realizing it was my own doing. Not caring about that then starting to play overwatch for 3 hours farming anniversary skins
"The average time a gamer spends playing video games is an hour a day"
*Laughs at amateur numbers*
Umm I might play 7hour sooooooo... am I a average gamer?
@@user-ry3bw2bg9n that's generally above average, i myself have about 12 hrs per day.
@@UltimateGamerCC GAMES MCGEE, THERE HE IS
@@orangeaurora i happily admit i'm a games mcgee, i love video games and so does my woman, so i've got all that i need... minus the forementioned fortune to buy said games... which that sucks!
I am also games mcgee lol, but I don't have money to buy any video game so I am forced to sail the pirate sees in search for free treasure.
The effort u put into these videos u are making now is really amazing. Your videos has also become really creative and diverse. Awesome work man.
9:44 The Jwittz-EU crossover I never knew I needed
Love the darkest dungeon clips when you were talking about dying lol
Thank you for calling out the Explorers of Sky fans. :’D
I saw him call it out and I paused the video to gather my bearings. They disgraced a beautiful game.
You seriously have been coming up with the coolest video ideas for a while now. Keep it up!
You put a lot of work into this, interesting video dude well done!
“Average gamer plays about 1 hour a day”
Me who plays 25 hours a day and 8 days a week : yes
I have that Tec too where you can play video games in sleep
Me, who plays video games 101 years in a century: u were sayin' mate?
Me too, well when I feel like it.
6:31 Gaston? Ah yes, you’re a man of culture
Loved the vid! I can truly tell how much you care about your videos with how much effort you put in. Awesome job dude 👍
Man, Jwitzz's videos just keep getting better and better. So happy I subscribed to you years ago. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Croatia👋🏻🇭🇷
2:50 The Switch has more games than the PS4 now? That's kinda scary but impressive at the same time
Scary when you realize most of that is becoming asset flips and shovelware... It's becoming the Wii on steroids.
@@SelecaoOfMidas I always wonder, both with Steam and the Eshop. Is it really that expensive to have a couple reviewers curate it from the beggining? Like, no need to finish every game, just play 20 mins each. Utter garbage asset flip is very easy to differentiate from mediocre but functional and original.
25% of every game ever made are "good"? (80% or higher score)
To quote a legend, "It's hard to make bad games. It's like making bad water."
@@azuretheegg8308 Zip-Lash ruined my marriage. That, g a m e, killed my whole family. My dog would be alive for not that game. Chibi Robo... killed me.
This video was fascinating. The stats and thought process was really enjoyable and refreshing from what I normally watch. Thanks for effort you put into this video.
By golly, I think it's fair to say this here is the best video you have ever made Josh, amazing all the way through out, I loved it even though I hate hearing how I'm gonna die and leave forever and not gonna get to make any more great experiences
“The Average American spends over half of their free time watching TV”
...I’m sorry what
cable television is highly inferior to every other source of entertainment out there. Its not an opinion, its a fact.
Does Anime count as TV?
@@Katpasniss It does not if you live in a country where anime is not broadcasted on tv :)
ElWeeabooDelBarri so you don’t count watching Netflix as watching TV then?
@@lukewhitsell942 No, you can watch it on literally any modern device ever. Do you count it as watching TV if you are watching it on your phone? Shouldn't you count youtube too then? Why not watching movies at the theater?
Now I know I feel when I'm trying to finish a game before another game gets released
Your Spelunky Let's Play is still my favorite Let's Play series of all time to this day
Loved this video Josh, so much research!
alt title: i used the government to prove that videogames are awesome
This is exactly what I tell anyone who recommends a new tv show or anime, I don't have time for them.
Great job on this research study JWittz. You took the time to look at the question and surmise that everyone will have their own games that they love to play. It makes the finiteness of life very existential.
This video was a blast. Very cool and interesting concept
When you're in school, you have so many freedom and choices to do without a care in the world to do anything. I usually finished video games due to amount time I be putting in. Now I work and have to balance all of my hobbies. I'm so behind on movies, animes and video games. So many good animes and video games to watch. I had to make a schedule to keep all of this balanced. Monday, tuesday, Wednesday are my anime days 5 or 10 episodes in those days. Thursday is a random day, I could either play video game, watch anime, tune on Netflix for a movie, or just sleep. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday is my video game days. Sometimes on Sunday nights, I rarely do a anime night and just watch 5 episodes before I turn in for work. This is how far behind I am from watching anime, you guys know I haven't watch dragonball super yet, you know I havent watch any of the new anime after year of 2014? Exactly I havent even finished with naruto shippuden yet
dude thats a great idea to have anime days and video game days, been having a hard time balancing it myself. I usually just watch an episode while eating (im a pretty slow eater). Personally I found the least time for hobbies in college cuz that was just homework 24/7, high school was ok but still had homework after the 8 hours in school, at least with work its just 9 to 5 then free to do whatever, minus other responsibilities?
Stares at my hours of Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem Three Houses with a little shame...
Love the content Jwittz, always a good day when you upload
I needed this video, so much. Thank you for existing
The world is so stressful
Maybe you could but it would take a VERY long time especially with how long some of these good games are
yes, RPGs would of course take the longest, Strategy being the second longest, especially when mixed with RPG mechanics and Simulation making 3rd Place.
the quickest genres are Fighting games, Platformers and Shooters.
It’s pretty much the same thing as anime. There’s a million to watch, and new ones come out like every month
Or if you don't enjoy isekai, there's nothing to watch.
@@Ramperdos cowboy bebop
@@toooydoeur Well CB is pretty old. I think they meant newer ones.
@@Km-qo6ex Also CB is also one of the most popular anime in the anime circle and to recommend that to someone is like to recommend a teenager to watch one super hero movie
Pfff, unironically, reading the manga is more efficient because you can read faster then watching a full anime. I finished Evangelion in a day by reading it
This video was amazing. I loved this so much. Great topic. Amazing structure. Thank you for this! You deserve the sub!
Great video! love the work and effort!
It depends what you speculate as “Good” games
Especially if “Good” is merely a scale, and there’s higher ones like “Great” or “Perfect”
Yeah, the Metacritic page of games with a score over 80 is very questionable, I could easily reduce it by 50% with barely any effort.
for me a good game ranges around 60, here's my scope on video game scores:
10-30 Bad
40-50 Mediocre
60-70 Good
80-90 Great
95-100 God Tier
You should have hired a python developer to automate recording the “good games list” using scraper software. It would have taken a lot less time.
It's insane how much your quality of your videos have improved over the past few years, that's not to say your content was ever bad, but it feels so much more natural and pure then it used to, I really enjoyed this video and a lot of the ones you have made recently.
Excellent video concept and opening. Great work.
Seeing all these comments from people saying they play over seven hours a day, I can only assume that you are all teenagers, or at least unemployed. If you work forty hours a week, then you usually only get one hour of gaming a day, if that much. There have been many times where I haven't been able to play games for a week or more just because I've been too busy. Being an adult stinks.
Ugh, I can definitely agree. Between my dead-end retail job and my working towards my engineering degree in college, I've had to miss out on so many new releases due to my focus on exams and projects.
the pandemic definitely contributes to increased gaming time though unless this is how much they would play before than you would be right
I could certainly fit in more than 1 hour of gaming a day alongside my 40 hour job. Taking into account travel, exercise, eating, maintaining basic hygiene ect. I could definitely find 2 or 3 hours to play a video game every night. It would just inadvertently mean doing absolutely nothing else with my free time.
Of course you can. Melee players have been playing the only good game for 20 years now
Zach Funkhouser good job melee man but I beg to differ (it’s not brawl)
One of, if not my favorite aspect of playing games that I haven't before is the relationship I build with them over time. For instance, playing Chrono Trigger and Cross for the first time last year kept my brain coming back to them, their excellent soundtracks, lore, and story until I replayed them again this year, experiencing them in a whole new perspective. I also love how repeated playthroughs allow you to learn games more efficiently, often avoiding irritating and frustrating aspects of them that can plague blind runs w/out the fear of spoilers.
Good to see you still going strong Jwittz
I play very casual games & stick to let's plays when it comes to skill games, but even so, video games are interesting to me. Awesome video, great job!
This was a great and informative video, thank you for taking the time to take on and share this sweet project with us!
Love this video! Great job!
As someone who also likes to list and categorize stuff, often very big lists of stuff (like a few weeks ago I typed out every single yugioh card name I own on a google docs) I tremble before you in awe
Man especially being in college and working that 1 hour a day really hit me lol. Gonna make me appreciate the games I can play so much more now
I didn’t think a video like this existed lol but for real though I’ve been playing like 10+ games this whole quarantine lol
I really appreciate all the time you took to make this! I love your research-based videos!
I like that intro theme, is there a longer version?
Stil really diggin that intro theme and animation
This video kind of reminded me of a classic Game Theory video, back when he actually focused on math and science.
This was such an amazing idea for a video! Well done!
This is a fascinating video. I'm a Chemistry teacher, so I already love science, data, and experiments. This video is a fantastic study! You covered parameters, your procedure and the asterisks around them; your results, data, and methods of collection; even better, in your conclusion, you talked about the limitations of your study and ways your study could be revised or improved. This is an incredible example, and I may even use this in my own class to teach students about the broad and detailed nature of a legitimate research study.
As a LONG time fan, who watched that Spelunky LP when it was first uploaded, that ending made my DAY.
The more open he is with his sense of humor, the funnier he is. Keep it up! We're loving the content
Absolutely loved the video. Thanks for addressing several if not all of the potential flaws in the data and how they could skew the numbers. The vid was just fascinating, I guess I’m weird for dumping 10+ hours a day whenever I play something like Terraria 😭
JWittz has officially become Polygon Unraveled and I am SO here for it
I made a bucket list that i keep adding to and i realized a long time ago i wont be able to play every good game so i decided to just play the "greats" plus the good games of my personal taste.
Yeah, some games I just play to play. I have a lot of gamer 'comfort foods'. Amazing research JWittz
Hope you are doing well. Thanks for all the great videos!
Perfect time to spot this video. I was just scheduling how to fit in all the flash games into my schedule before they disappear. XD
12:34 - oh look, there's that one pair of games that people are still fighting about it to this day
Here's an obvious idea for a follow up video:
How MANY good video games can you play?
Or you can make it more interesting by breaking it down further.
How many good games can you play within each genre? How many good games can you 100%? How many good games could you play if you divided your time equally across all genres?
JWittz's channel is so good these days.
I want this list of good games you have made.
Enjoy what you're doin in the moment, I've been enjoying dq11 on 3ds and playing w/ beyblades lol
Could you link the list of the games you compiled? I need something to work towards because this video got me feeling existential
Jwitz asking the right questions 🤣🤣
You did all this great work is there a chance you can post the list so we can see it?
