Last cycle, I only beat 3 games. I started and left half-way several games. šŸ˜¤ The feeling of staying home all the time has made me anxious to start a new game, but thatā€™s not how I normally operate. I also bought too many games last quarter. Until I beat at least 2 unfinished games a month, I wonā€™t start any new games. Definitely not long ones.

My friends have gifted me some games. I need to start keeping track of those games that Iā€™ve been gifted so I can fit them in some way. New list: games, Iā€™ve been gifted: The Tenth Line, Fallout 4, and Criminal Girls.

Sub-goal 1: Beat at least one game fitting in Monthly BLAEO Theme.

Sub-goal 2: Beat at least 1 game fitting PAGYWOSG Theme.

Sub-goal 3: Beat at least 1 game from my POP picks.

Sub-goal 4: Remember to write a review for each game beaten.

I also bought too many games last quarter.

How odd and unusual. Canā€™t say Iā€™ve ever done that before.

Your friend gifted you Fallout 4? Damn!

What game are attacking first?

Oooof sorry for the late reply šŸ˜«. I didnā€™t think Iā€™d actually get a reply on this post. I hardly use BLAEO except to update the games Iā€™ve beaten, so I just saw this message now.

Yep, my workout buddy gifted me Fallout 4, since itā€™s one of his favorite games he recommends. Iā€™m not usually into 3D open-world games, but definitely plan to give it a shot and tell him about my experience. I of course plan on updating my post once Iā€™ve beaten it.

Since Iā€™ve been busy with real-life work, I only managed to beat 1 game this month (Bastion). I plan to make it up by beating 3 games in June. The first game I plan to finish is the life-sim Worldā€™s Dawn. Followed by Fallout 4. Definitely want to beat the horror survival Subterrain as well.

Worldā€™s Dawn looks fun and relaxing.

I beat Subterrain and wrote a walkthrough for it. Unfortunately I canā€™t recommend it: https://steamcommunity.com/id/lext/recommended/340490

Ooh you wrote that guide. Damn what a coincidence šŸ˜‚. Thank you for the guide! I was able to actually get pretty far on my 3rd permadeath run thanks to your tips (on my 3rd tier chips run). After dying from being pinned by mutants, I think Iā€™m ready to just try it on easy without permadeath XD.

I think I still like the game despite itā€™s difficulty.

Lex

I only played it on Easy! Iā€™m terrible at top-down shooters, but I was drawn in by the atmosphere and the crafting.

AlvinCanCabbage

True that atmosphere and crafting is pretty great. I only played on normal and perma-death so I could get the ā€œtrue experienceā€ of how the developers envisioned it. Like playing a horror movie where youā€™re constantly on edge, shining your flashlight around the corner. I only wish there an auto-pick-up option. The amount of time Iā€™ve spent looking in the dark to see if an enemy dropped a tooth, blood, nail really adds up. Probably not really worth it since I think I hoarded a ton of it without really using them.
