There are plenty of games I have paid good money for that I didn't finish for one reason or another. Sometimes the game just falls flat of my expectations (free demos went out of fashion about a decade ago), sometimes it offers me a compelling experience for a while, but not through the whole experience. And sometimes life gets in the way. I'm not rich by any measure, but I have enough disposable income that I don't have to force my way through an experience I stopped enjoying. Similarly there are lots of books I started reading and never finished, and plenty of TV shows I started and dropped at some point. Even some few movies I started and never finished. And that's ok. But unless they are highly recommended I don't start TV shows that were canceled, and similarly a bad ending is a score against me ever purchasing a game or book. There is a good chance the show or game will lose me before I ever get there, but why would I set myself up for a bad experience in case I do like the product enough to get that far?
