Aaaand I’m back!

After a bit more than a month of not posting anything… I’m sorry, I am terrible at posting stuff. :/ Also, with the tons of machine projects I have to pass and the orgs I’m in, I’ve been really busy this past month. Hopefully I’ll be less busy during the term break this December… but I still have to organize and plan for 2 events on January for 2 different orgs so probably not. ;-;

I’ve finally beaten Amnesia: Memories after a month! Well actually I basically only played for two days really, on Halloween night and today. I finished 2 routes on Halloween before getting really sleepy because it was like 3 or 4 am. AND THEN I completely forgot about it up until a while ago. (Pretty ironic, considering the title of the game, I would say.)

So, onto the game itself! Here’s the order of the routes I played: clover, diamond, spade, heart, joker. I’m really glad I chose Kent first, because I like him the best out of all of them. What a nerd. Shin is great, Ikki was okay, and Ukyo’s character was… kinda iffy but interesting enough. Only con is that I don’t like Toma at all. Nah, scratch that, I totally dislike him. :/ But anyway, I liked the game overall. :)

I really am terrible at finishing games… ;-; I almost always just start games, play for an hour or two, sometimes a few more, then never remember to finish them. It’s not that I don’t like the games I play, I actually pretty much enjoy most games, it’s just that sometimes I feel overwhelmed while playing?? Idk, I think I might have a short attention span… :/ How do you guys stay focused on just one game at a time? Also, I’m really impressed when I see the people here finishing a ton of games in one month! LIKE, HOW??? :o

It’s not easy to focus on one game, unless it really hooks me in. The batch system has helped me a lot to not abandon games that I’ve started. I add 5-6 games in my ‘batch category’ in my Steam library, and I’ll also play other casual games when I feel like it. But just because that batch of few games is always at the top of my library, it’s easier to go back to play them instead of trying to figure out where to continue with a library of a few hundred games.

That’s just one way to look at it, check out how other members have made their plans and try them yourself. Maybe you’ll find a style that suits you well. :)

Ooh, that makes sense. It would probably be better for my sanity to make batches instead of trying to focus on just one game at a time. I have an “unfinished” category in Steam (same as on here) and also an “installed” category but those usually get ignored by my subconscious because I get distracted/bored easily. ;-; I should probably make a batch list with only like 3 or 4 games so I don’t get overwhelmed… I’ll try that, thanks! :)
