2025 - February

I won a game on SteamGifts!

So I immediately went to work on it, it was pretty good. I like walking simulators, though this one was maybe less thinking and more sightseeing.

I also managed to play though all of sniper elite 3!

I’m not sure I liked it, it’s quite different from what I wanted/imagined it to be.

I then played a bunch of

It’s quite cute, maybe a little too much faffing about with tool durability and such, but it’s pretty fun! You can feel yourself get better at the complicated but still somehow menial task.

I tried out Necesse during the free weekend, might pick that up when it comes out

This was also very fun

Other than that there are some games I doubt I’ll ever stop playing taking time

• Dota 2
  

  2848.1 hours playtime

  no achievements

• Balatro
  

  38.5 hours playtime

  17 of 31 achievements

I also didn’t mention it last update, but I’ve been adding all keys I had lying around on humble in the past couple of months, adding over 300 games to my backlog (shocking myself), I then cancelled my humble choice subscription to say the least..

Generally a very active month!

I was travelling for most of january, so I didnt get to play any hollow knight. Instead I felt like finally playing through a game I liked a lot when I was a teenager. And which’s music I still listen to from time to time. Didn’t manage to finish it this time either, but surely in february I’ll conquer it!

Now that I’m back with my real computer and controller I’ll finish up va-11 hall-a and continue my quests in Hollow Knight!

This month is exam season, he said. I’ll probably play mostly short games that fit in a study break he said.

Instead I played 34 hours of Hollow Knight… It’s very good…

Didn’t beat anything else, so no assassinations for me. Luckily my backlog hasn’t grown any either (I must be in the bottom 80 active users for luck on steamgifts at this point 😅)

In January I hope to maybe finish Hollow Knight? I feel like I’m somewhat close..

Wow, a month went by quite fast.. Thanks for the warm welcome last time!

Last month I said I wanted to make some progress on satisfactory, and finish subnautica.

And I did manage to make progress on satisfactory! I’ve unlocked oil and trains now! But I did not play any subnautica.

Instead I played:

Apparently there was a lot of new content in a patch I missed! so I played it a bunch, and went on some achievement hunting.

I also played

but I played it at a friend’s house, so I can’t seem to add it to my completed list here…

I quite liked it though! Engaged the critic part of my brain nicely :)

This month is exam season, so I’ll probably play mostly games like this (that are short and fit in a study break..)

First post on backlog-assasins! Thank you for adding me :) I’m not sure how you’re making all these pretty graphics in your posts, but here goes anyways :)

In October (before I was added) I started by playing Satisfactory again now that 1.0 is out, and also some Balatro!

Balatro was really good, so it sure sucked up a bunch of hours. To take a break I started up Dave The Diver, which was very different from what I thought it would be!
I’m still not entirely sure what I think of it. But imagine my surprise when a couple of days into playing it I was suddenly playing Balatro INSIDE Dave the Diver. Pretty crazy coincidence!

I ended up finishing Dave the Diver, at least the main story, but maybe I’ll do some more of the sidequests.

For November I’m hoping to make progress on Satisfactory, and maybe finally finishing Subnautica (I think I’m nearly done with it)

Cheers!
