Life has been crazy over the last two years... bought a house, my wife got sick, been pushing to get a promotion at work, and just generally living life. DnD has really taken priority in my freetime which is great but I do miss playing video games as much. I took to being a DM/GM for awhile now which really consumes me. World building is fun.
With all that being said, I figured it was time to make another post on here. In the last 4 months, my progress here has hit a huge road block. Covid-19. Particularly, it has become a big cathartic release to buy video games. Mostly again in the form of bundles. This came about typically with the issue of one of my bank accounts. I get a much better interest rate if I have 12 purchases on my debt card... before it would be a soda here or there. But since Covid, it has been about 12 cheap games a month... along with that the bundles got me again. I am not a Choice Subscriber on Humble again. The one month was a great month and I wanted 8 out of the 9 games, but it suckered me in.
With all this being said, I just need to find a way to move forward with games and dealing with the backlog here. Not sure, hope some of you might have some ideas. But I wanted to look at some stats again to really see them.
How is everyone else?
Overall Backlog Progress (Last Updated 06/09/18)
Talking about the stats a bit here. I did go through some reclassifications in the last 2 years. Beaten has now become, I beat it and would like to replay it. Completed has now become, I have beaten it and I am satisfied. This comes with the realization that I cannot perfect every game or even come close to it. Won't play is a catch all for games I don't want to play any more, but haven't beaten. This could mean, I enjoyed the game but am done with it or that I think the game is terrible. All of this has skewed the metrics here but its important to look at them in my opinion.
