Skattered Fragments - #6

Halfway into the 20/22 challenge, mostly stats
Current status:

At the beginning of the year I’ve started the 20/22 Challenge which a couple of other assassins decided to tackle as well. I’m too lazy to post about it every month, naturally, but I figured I’d at least give a stat breakdown of how I’ve been doing in the challenge, as well as the general fight against the backlog. What I didn’t mention in the challenge was that I was also planning to avoid buying new videogames - that actually lasted a couple of months surprisingly, but it failed as anyone would’ve expected.

Boring stats section - Beaten-Added (Number of games from my 20/22 challenge):

January: 3-0 (2)
February: 6-0 (2)
March: 3-2 (1)
April: 4-3 (1)
May: 5-5 (1)
June: 13-9 (7)

Overall: 34-19 (14)

As you might’ve noticed, I started doing really poorly in my challenge after Elden Ring came out… until last month happened, and I somehow doubled the number of finished games from the list, now being down to having to finish only one game per month for the rest of the year to succeed. Another thing worth pointing out is that I have not lost the fight against my backlog in any month of 2022, having 5 victories and 1 tie so far.

While I’m also too lazy to write actual thoughts about the games (except Salome’s Kiss, for which I wrote a review), here’s 10 of my current favourites that I’ve played this year (Mostly out of personal curiosity of how many of these will eventually make it into my top 8 list at the end of the year).
