Basically curious to know every detail of your gaming habits.
I generally play RPGs, though I also like strategy games, puzzles, the occasional first-person shooter. I'll play anything with a premise that grabs my attention, though I'll only give a game about 20 minutes to be fun enough to continue playing.
I wouldn't say I play games to become a better designer: on the contrary, I'll sometimes avoid games of a certain genre if I'm working on one of that type so that I don't get unconsciously influenced by them (I do the same thing with my writing).
I've beaten a lot of games. Can't give you an exact number, but I do also have a massive backlog of games I haven't finished yet. I tend to pingpong between games, playing a little of one at a time.
Usually play on easy difficulty if I'm honest. I'll only play on higher difficulties if there's an achievement or content I couldn't access otherwise. I haven't played many games with combat systems fun enough for me to intentionally make them harder if I don't have to.
I won't quit a game unless I genuinely don't find it fun, which hasn't happened with many.

What games do you play? - Mostly rpg's, but also shooters, racing games, side scrollers and Metroid-like platformers)
How do you play them to become better designers? - I usually do that for RPG Maker games. I still play RM games for fun, but a part of me thinks about the overall design of the game, and what ideas I can get for my own projects.
How many games do you beat? - I probably wind up beating about 1 or 2 a month. Sometimes more if the hours for completion isn't that high.
In what difficulty to you play? - Usually normal, but sometimes easy (if I'm not too invested in a challenge). Never hard unless there is an incentive for doing so (such as extra story or dungeons).
Do you usually quit after you have understood the game? - No, I usually quit if I'm bored of the game, it's a type of game I am not interested in, or it's a broken mess.
