August 2025

After two months of almost no wins, August came roaring and I won a whopping 7 games - bad news for the backlog, but good news for me I guess? Hahahaha

It was a good month gaming-wise. I managed to beat 3 SG wins and one game from the backlog. The wins were Technobabylon, an incredibly good game that introduced me (and made me a fan of) Wadjet Eye Games; Oddworld New N’ Tasty, which I didn’t love (the same way I didn’t love Abe’s Odyssee) but at least managed to suffer through without abandoning it, and American Fugitive, a pretty fun mediocre game hahaha. The backlog asssassination was a massive deal, Elden Ring, which became my most played Steam game, dethroning Red Dead Redemption 2. Such a thrill. Notable comment - it was an unrelated SG win, as I won it in the Taleplay Discord channel. I can’t thank Vasharal and Arrmeya enough for that. Now’s YOUR CHANCE to make me happy by gifting me the DLC or Dark Souls 1 or Lies of P 🥰🤣

As the month has turned, I’ll of course prioritize one or two wins to assassinate early in the next month, and then try to focus back on Thief (1998) from my backlog, which has been left gathering dust this month after I beat the first two missions. It’s a game that is harder for me to simply pick up and play, because the gameplay is way more cerebral and methodic, and I like to have the right mindspace and available time to really savor it.

Anyway, happy gaming!
