Ok, how am I supposed to tell that a book is good without reading it first doe?

In reality, most people play a game then never replay it so they can move on to the next thing. The only truly replayable games are multiplayerslop.

I almost never re-read anything, rewatch anything or replay anything, only a handful of things I can repeatedly enjoy, I don't see the point of it when there is more out there than I could possibly experience in several lifetimes

What if it's a puzzle game and I remember all the solutions?

This is true honestly but I almost never reread or replay anything because there’s just so much goddamn stuff out there I still want to experience.

Games are entertainment that rely heavily on surprising the player. Only mentally broken people and the severely poor want to keep replaying the same shit. Books can contain knowledge so rereading has a lot more value than finding a new book.

I almost never replay any games unless its a super short game sub 1 or 2 hour game from older gens.

Nah.
The reason a book is worth rereading is because there are things in it that are still new to you.
Things you didn't notice or didn't remember by the time you reread it.
If you remember a book well enough, there sometimes is little to gain from rereading it.
The same can be true of games.
Just because its not worth replaying now, doesn't mean it wont be worth it later on.

Thus, it theoretically is always possible for a game to be worth replaying.

Darkest Dungeon is a game I have zero motivation to replay. Same for Inscryption. You can only experience those games to the end once.

I disagree and I'm someone who replays games a lot. Games like Mario RPG, Hollow Knight, the Resistance Trilogy, Bulletstorm to name a few are games that I only played the once and don't regret playing.

Bullshit, I think Fantasy Life is great, but I ain't replaying it, mainly for how absolutely fucking long and grind heavy the games are.
