IT TOOK ME 5 MONTHS TO HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO WRITE THIS, AND NOW I’M BACK

I was several months thinking «I have to update BLAEO». Each month the thematic was changing like «I have to do this month summary», then, «I have to do this quarter summary», then «I have to do the 2021’s 1st part summary» and we are on August. So I’ve decided to write yes or yes today.

So, what is going on, Aiori?

My work and family abducted me. Also, I had some health problems, but nothing serious. Some work took too much extra time (mainly for bureaucracy stuff), and my son is still growing, which implies new challenges, new procedures, and more stuff, like looking for a school, but my country’s administration loves documents.

OK, you are alive, but how about your backlog?

A complex answer indeed:

I’ve tried not to buy anything until the steam summer sale, and I accomplished this, except for a couple of games, which I finished a short time later after bought them. Also, I have a humble subscription that my girlfriend gifted me some months ago, but only used a couple of months, and I did not activate any key for the moment.

Besides, I traded some titles, mainly of my wishlist, but with some initially not included. But lately, this aspect is calm (better from my backlog!). Also, I got some games from giveaways or gifts (birthday, saint valentine) and for reviewing purposes.

Additionally, I won’t buy anything more until the Christmas sale, and even then, let’s see. There is only an exception, with the review games, and for the case, if Persona 5 Royal (there is a lot of hearsay about this) would be released on steam, it probably will be an instant buy. I am thinking of a ratio about finishing 5 games (maybe more) before activating one of the pending keys and starting with games that I left in the past.

Currently, the stats are similar, the completed ratio raised 1 % (but it’s still on a 6%), and the rest is on the same values… But, there are more games to beat.

6th August 2021

Which is the action plan?

I was thinking of a plan, I will take, asides from the titles for reviewing, usually a couple per month, one of my pending games and one new. One of them will fit the monthly theme. First, I will aim for the short ones, it seems a good restart for a huge backlog. Also, if I start one, I will finish it, maybe I won’t get all the achievements, depending on the game, but I have to fight my backlog. I’ll publish the august plan this weekend too.

Furthermore, I will try to be more active here. More than this, I think it will be an extra motivation for completing games. Have a nice day/night!
