I do it notoriously, you know? Either when the game sets certain inexcusable level of ineptitude from the beginning or when it has been decent throughout but took a nosedive from certain moment on. IMO video games rarely make their plots and lore consistently engaging through the whole game. Even games like The Witcher 2! What I also hate is when a game feels already exhausted on the level of lore but keeps spamming you with more of the same and thinks you should pay the same attention as you paid at the beginning. I'm talking about games with collectable journals for example, like Tomb Raider. Even in games with non-intrusive storytelling like Dead Space 3 I ended up ignoring most of the text based logs and longer audio ones because it was ruining the pacing and I'm the kind of a guy
who'd enjoy stellar story over action!
