This year wasn't the best year for games. We bought a house and other life events.
In general, A good chunk of my time was spent on friendslop games. Peak and REPO are the main two. I think we played either or both of those nearly once a week without fail. Also completed some fun multiplayer games. Several years after starting, Cuphead is finally beaten!
The games that stand out for me this year are Silksong and Supraland Six Inches Under. I liked SIU so much I went back and played a bit more of the first game before realizing its not as good. Silksong has been great although I've stalled out a bit in act 3 with how much harder it's become.
Final bit of overview for the past year, I've recently gone through most of my unfinished games playing them for a tiny bit (min ~15min) and then dropping them if I don't find them fun. Cleared out a massive amount of backlog that way at the expense of my completion ratio. I think its the opposite of something I did a few years ago by shifting dropped series to unfinished. Personally this shift feels alot better. kind of like spring cleaning? Maybe I'll return to some of them in the future but for now I'm focusing on my unfinished and unstarted games.

I think it’s sensible to move on from games you don’t enjoy. Seems like you made the right choice IMO.
I’ve felt like I’ve been hoarding unfinished games. Diluding myself into thinking I’m going to go back and finish them someday (even though its been 10 years since I started them). This spring cleaning has honestly made me feel better about my backlog.
I did the same a while back. It was nice to give myself a fresh start. I’m sure you will enjoy it as well.
