Look through them and pick only 5, the ones stand out on every aspect, ones that you'd really love to play. after doing that look through those 5 again doing the same thing, and pick one or two of them, et voila!
Choice paralysis shouldn't press on you too much doing it like this, think of it as "i just want to try this one game no strings or commitment involved, i just want to have fun now", after trying it, you could decide then whether you'd stick with it or not.
I actually forced a friend to tell me to 100% 5 games, and that has been working lol. But also FFXIV kinda eats my time to atm-

I personally play games for the story, i don't care for collectables, achievements etc. 100% game completion doesn't interest me. and is definitely a commitment (both effort & time-wise), and an additional stressor to the whole choice paralysis. But you do you, i guess?
 

"I'm bored"...Jesus, isn't this EXACTLY how a SEXBOT shows up on some uninvited window of your computer that you did not ask for?

If you wanna get laid, crawl up a chicken's ass and wait...

I usually focus on the story first, then i complete the game 100%.

So you bored with and without the 100 game steam library? Hmm..
Pretty much, sometimes i don't wanna play and when i do, i don't know what to choose and the game turns out to be boring.

I could not POSSIBLY agree with you more. I've finished not a few games with "Sub-100%" completion, or something close to it. I play the game because

1) I enjoy it

2) Finishing the game without a bunch of holes hammered into my chest. In Super Metroid, you had to have 12 energy tanks (out of 14) to kill Mother Brain in Super Metroid which is an absolute MUST if you have not played this game, but, if you reach MB with less than 12 tanks, your ass is grass.

So YES, I'll be playing through my old school consoles & games, especially un-finished I've games I have but have not completed.

EDIT: I have only beaten ONE GAME in my whole life where I finished with a 100% completion. That game is METROID PRIME. i BEAT IT ON THE GAMECUBE AND THEN I BEAT IT AGAIN ON THE Wii. I cannot say I've done that before with any game. If I recall something else later, I'll put it here.

Game-on bitches!!!

I was bored too. I did twenty thousand bare knuckle punches the other day and my hands have been in bandages from it for days. Can't do much right now while in recovery mode. But at least I can use a controller with them for the time being.
 
I don't know what to do

Sometimes dude, you have to stick with a game until it begins to truly open up for you. I've just had a moment for that myself playing through Bionic Commando (retail version), and once that game opens up a bit, you get new abilities, new weapons, access to new areas, etc. Another perfect example of this is Metroid Prime (or any other Metroid game to be honest that you like), and you reach a point in a game where you've gone from Zero to Hero, as both of the above mentioned games. If you want to beat boredom with a video game, give any game a chance you've tried before, but this time stick with it for a while before tossing it into the garbage can.
