Started going through my backlog a couple months ago. I want to give all worthy games a chance, preferably complete before I think about buying another
Started by cutting out all the trash from my library, bringing it from 110 to about 30. I then used a decky plugin to split the games up into:
Playing
Story Backlog
Non-story backlog
I will have max 1 story game in my "playing" group and a bunch of non story games when I want a relaxed, not mentally focused session
Dying light - on hold after ~10 hours
too scary and the strength and stamina of the guy is annoyingly low. The idea of playing it sounds really fun, so I'll probably pick it back up when I feel like playing a scary game
stardew valley - completed main story/objective (the community center). Took me ~80 hours
the only game I've completed this year but I mean it when I say I loved that game. Couldn't put it down, even played for 8 hours straight once; which is very rare for adult me. Only stopped playing because I felt burnt out after nearly 80 hours. There's still content for me to get back to when I want
the Witcher 3 - currently my "in progress" major story game
About 10 hours into my second attempt at a playthrough. Wow what a game. No spoilers at all pls even if it's something that happens at the start
Dishonoured - abandoned after 9 hours
It's a fun game, the story is okay but it's just not gripping me. It's a meh game. I abandoned it when I realised I kept procrastinating it and moved onto the Witcher 3 (thank goodness I did!!). Small chance I try again in the future.
Bully - abandoned after 8 hours
This game did not age well at all.
Very fun idea but it's too old to enjoy. Controls too clunky, missions are too basic, doesn't run smoothly and just a bad experience overall. The missions are also very basic.
Some of the casual, short session games I currently have in the rotation:
Brawlhala - just downloaded, seems fun.
Vampire survivors - lives up to the hype 100%
Forza horizon 5 - my virtual Sunday drive
Hotline Miami - stuck on a level! Quite a difficult game
Doom 2016 - one mission per month is enough for me!
Dirt rally 1 - have to be in a specific mood to play this!
Some games in my story Backlog (in no order):
GTA IV - up next after I finish TW3
Fallout 4 - I hate bugs and spiders though D:
RDR2 - played prologue already
Shadow of modor
Shadow warrior
I just realised I put so much effort into a comment no one will read 🙃 it's too late to delete now, I ain't getting my time back so neither are you ;)
Now im doubling down and giving all the info!! I've got nothing better to do (apart from the fact I should have been asleep 2 hours ago)
