Take Rome Total War. It's a game that I've purchased at least twice over the last 12 years and it gives a huge amount of entertainment. I've completed it and the expansions so many times I know everything there is to "win".
Whereas Close Combat 2 I've played many times in single combat skirmish matches. I don't feel the need to complete the grand campaign all the time to feel like I've "won". Or Cities Skylines where having developed a city to a smaller scale and be "free" to tweak it's development is a win in itself.
Each game is different.
Usually the mantra of time or money is true but not for MMO's. You pay to spend time with them either as a subscription and/or microtransactions (WoW/Eve/STO). They may be lasting longer than many thought they would but they are still an in the moment form of gaming. After spending time, money or both you are left with nothing once they are "closed". I dread the day that servers are shut off for them (WoW, Eve, STO).
So as of the here and now, my games are in this "order":
Current Main:
No Man's Sky
Waiting for Fallout 4 Nuka DLC (x3charecters)(has season pass)
World of Warcraft (leader in all things of the "grind" time-sink)
Current but no pressure:
Star Trek Online (grind for rep/gear)
Cities Skylines (like a dog chasing cars)
Darkest Dungeon (start of the NG+ playthrough)
Fallout 4 (faffin about x3charecters)
Want to get started/restarted:
XCOM 2 (only a few missions in)
Homeworld Remastered 2 (second mission in after v2 patch)
The Witcher III (no DLC) (need to start - soooo far behind on this one!)
Thief (the new one, part of bundle in steam sale) (just started but may not play?)
Transformers Devastation (Second mission in, not feeling the love.)
Endless Space (I'm so far behind the curve ES2 is coming out!)
Games to come/get:
Southpark the fractured but whole
Battlefield 1
Battlefleet Gothic: Armada?
Dreadnought?
Games still a long way off:
