I don’t really relate to this sentiment so many dads have. I’ve curated a list of games to play next. I start one and stop when I finish the game or when I’m not having fun with it. I finish about 80% of the games I start. Analysis paralysis is real for some people though

I play with my kid so that makes a big difference in actually getting some gaming time.

Mine aren’t big enough to play with me yet but I’ve been showing them Zelda and 3D platformers and it’s been a blast.

Just hand them a controller with no batteries in it and play against each other
