October 2023

So, i’ve chosen to do my future posts in this style. It’s a bit more of a pain in the ass but it is quite pleasing on the eyes, so that’s something. However i’m axing my currently played section as a result, i just can’t be bothered to mess around and try and fit this style into uncompleted games, so i won’t :) In other news, as you can see, it’s a bit of a slow month, not many games finished. Most of my time went into FH3 or job hunting so less time to play a varied selection. Maybe this will change in October, maybe it will not, we’ll see.
Now, onto the games:

You Have to Win the Game

8/10

3 hours playtime

11 of 15 achievements (73.33%)

It’s embarrassing that this free game from 10+ years ago clears like half of the paid games on Steam in terms of effort and quality. Good game, play it.

Forza Horizon 3

6/10

? hours playtime

33 of 64 achievements (51.56%)

I played FH3 back when it launched, but never finished it. I had a great time with it at the time. But coming back to it.... it's honestly not that great. I think my outlook on Horizon changed after i went back and played FH1, and now FH3 just feels pointless... You can do any race in any car, there is no challenge, no pressure, nothing. Just do what you want with no consequences. And that sucks, why should i even care when i can bring the fastest or slowest car to any race and can still win. There is no point in buying any cars, upgrading etc. I'm really disappointed with this one honestly.

Inspector Waffles

8/10

2 hours playtime

9 of 15 achievements (60%)

I’m not usually a fan of point and click games, but Inspector Waffles is an exception to the rule. No stupid moon logic puzzles, witty and funny dialogue, great pixel art and most of all a fun story! Definetly worth playing, especially since the game is quite short :)
