Yes. I agree with you, but I know many people who cling to shitty books, series, games in some weird obligation to finish. There is definitely a sense of accomplishement in seeing something through to the end and closing it forever, but I also don’t get it. A few weeks ago I stopped a movie after 15 minutes because it sucked - time is my most valuable commodity, and I refuse to waste it in ways that are not highly enjoyabe to me
