Greetings! Yindy’s profile
So, it seems you managed to stumble upon my pile of shame.
I know, I’m a horrible, horrible, hoarder that lacks discipline, or maybe an attention span, I suppose. :)
The idea is to finish games before starting new ones… Though, I guess it doesn’t quite help me, at all, that I’ve also got a console/origin/uplay backlog that’s not shown here… Runs away to hide in a dark corner
I’ve decided to start keeping track of monthly progress bars to see if things actually change, and how they change.

August 2023 report
After seeing a few other people do it, I’ve decided to give reporting at the end of each month instead of each individual game a try.
August has been quite a productive month.
- Decided to finally mark a few games as won’t play, seeing as I’m simply not skilled/patient enough/don’t like those games/am stuck/not interested.
- Tried a bunch of random games instead of sticking to the game I’m playing.
- Finished a couple of games that were unfinished for ages.

Beaten
I've got a weakness for cute anime games, especially the neptunia series because it's full of jokes, puns, and breaking the 4th wall.
In this game you play as the goddesses playing an online mmo. The goal is to beat the main story and, oh, save the gameworld while we're at it.
It's fun, but also quite grindy.
This game has been quite a ride: Started and stopped playing it quite a lot of time; including on the PS3 because I got frustrated.
It's an ok game, it's a lot of fun and I love disney.
However, Oswalds AI is at times so damned annoying, it rarely does what I want it to do which makes it quite frustrating.
All in all a happy disney game, and, it's finally completed. :)
Fun little 2d platformer
It's another 2d platformer. It's not bad, I just didn't like it.
Short little game where you have to figure out what happened to the owner of the phone you found. Surprisingly fun
I've reached the ending twice, so I consider it done, even though I don't have a lot of achievements
Played 1 round and the tutorial. Guess that makes it beaten.
Well, not much to say really. It's a coloring book 'game' with achievements.
Played it for a bit. It's endless, so I kinda consider it beaten.
This game is bad. Won it. Played a round. Nothing else to it, really.
Currently playing:
I thought this was done. Turns out it's not.
It's a fun rhytm game burried underneath lewt pictures of girls.
Not quite sure what to think about this game.
You're an unicorn, and have to figure out what happened to the unicorn island.
Been playing this game on and off since Early acces.
Cute little game
A crossover between puyo puyo and tetris.
I'm finally getting over my idle games addiction. Had a short fall back, but decided I really don't like idlers.
I've been playing this game on and off for years. Currently stuck at a stage where I've got trouble with the timing, so will probably be abandoned for a while again.
It's not a bad game, just not in the mood to play it I guess
So, I don't have a driving license for a very good reason.
Kept on hitting other stuff, drive against traffic, and what not.
Also lack the patience to sit through all the long routes

Another 2d platformer I randomly tried.
This one just isn't for me
I want to finish this, I really do.
But after trying on and off for years I think it's time to admit I'm simply not skilled enough to do so.
Will probably keep on coming back in the hope of finishing it, someday.
I want to like this game, however, I dislike it for messing with my actual harddrivve and having to use my own programs in order to open files, instead of having it all done in-game.
A not-so-goodlooking mahjong game, I believe it's mainly aimed at kids.
The concept is great. It's an arkanoid like puzzle game.
However, in reality it takes forever to hit the last brick and I just lost my patience with it. Got plenty of better games to play.
This game is simply to hard for me. I admit defeat.

Despite being awful at driving/racing games and shooters, this game was quite fun. I liked it a lot more as expected, just not interested enough to actually play the dlc.
You play as an undercover cop that joins a Triad through your childhood best friend. Get morally conflicted between being a cop and a triad.
Lot's of fighting, racing, stealing cars.
A fun, relatively easy 3d platformer with a really catchy soundtrack.
Had a lot of fun with this game: It's fun, levels are quite short. A game that cheered me up when I was feeling down
This game is a fun in-between stuff game.
The rounds are short and fast. It somewhat reminds me of the mario party mini games, but without a playerbase.
Luckily you can fill the online rounds with bots to help with that.
The I’ve-just-completed-an-awesome-game-and-now-I-dont-know-what-to-play feels.
This game has been on my radar since release but, well, I don't have a playstation 4 (nor 5). After it came to pc I just found it to expensive, especially with my existing backlog of games…
During the summer sale, I finally bought it and have been playing it since.
I really enjoyed myself, despite being a walking disaster with a bow and arrow/aiming. (Which is why I pretty much never play shooters.)
Luckily, there was this thing called story mode and have been able to melee most monsters, except those damned birds and a few bosses, that is.
The story: It felt surreal to have Aloy running around with her bow and spear against machine animals. To see a culture worshipping the old ones/machines/AI while it's something that's starting to be so present in our lives.
I don't know. I just got the feels.
This game has so much potential. It's fun to play, but it has some major downsides:
- in early acces since 2017 and there don't seem to have been any updates
- Controller layout plays awkward
- keyboard works, but it displays the controller triggers
- Only 'fun' mode available whenever you play a new song - which comes down to 2 or maybe 3 different buttons, quite repetitive.
It's still fun to kill a few minutes, however.
It has a bug where you can't get past the intro on ultra wide screen resolution.
And, frankly, I can't be bothered to change my computers resolution for a single game.
It gives an error path not found or something similar.
It's an interesting experience. You walk around on an island, slowly uncovering a story which has a few twists.
Short game, took me about an hour.
Kinda regret nog playing it years sooner.
If I beat games I just bought, does it count as a backlog?
So, the steam’s summer sale was here, and even though my library is massive I’ve still bought a few games.
The games I bought:
Super lucky’s tale + New super lucky’s tale
Stray
Lego city: Undercover
Puyo puyo Tetris battle
Horizon: Zero Dawn.
I've been eyeing this game since release and finally decided to buy it in the sale. 'Only' 20% off, but definately worth the price tag, even though it's short.
You play as a cat, what starts out really cute turns into a post apocalyptic world.
There's some platforming, but it's mainly a puzzle game where you have to find stuff in order to do/unlock more stuff.
A friend and me where looking for games to play as couch co-op on de Switch, after beating Yoshi's crafted world together.
So, we ended up downloading the demo of New super lucky's tale, even though it wasn't co-op.
I immediately fell in love with the whimsical artstyle and the music.
So, instead of buying it on the switch I bought it during the steam sale, because it got bundled with the previous game.
Its a cute little platformer. I do believe the requirement of clovers for a few boss battles was a bit high but I used the dlc clover's to finish it.
All in all it was a fun little game.
Immediately started new super luckys tale right after, but levels are to similar/the same so its on hold.
Final Fantasy XV beaten.
…And I just don’t like it.
To start: I don’t like/get the combat system. It just didn’t click for me.
The endless car rides to get from A and B where to much, it felt like an overkill over which you had no control.
The story just didn’t do it for me, either.
But. hey, at least I’ve beaten it! True, mainly due to easy mode and getting infinite revives on noctis, but still.
I gave it a fair shot, it’s just not my kind of game.
Which is a shame, I really wanted to like it.
It’s been a while.
After starting my studies I kinda lost the time to spend on gaming.
After catching covid, my concentration/motivation to do, well, anything really.
Fortunately, I’m done with my studies, I’m starting to get my concentration, focus, and will to actually play games back, too.
Forgive me for not making pretty posts, I kinda forgot how to do that stuff, too.
[b]Pikuniku and Hogwarts Legacy [/b] are, together with pokemon Violet, the first games I’ve beaten this year.
It’s up to me to make sure they’re not the last ones.
Guess what? My backlog got backlogged!
Oh well… It’s an impossible pile anyway, so I figured I’ll just play what I want to play and stop if I don’t like a game. Sounds actually pretty normal and healthy, right?
Shadows of Mordor (Again)
So, I’ve played through shadows of mordor once again… AFter my first playthrough I got so disappointed by the final boss battle I completely lost my interest in the dlc. With shadow of war also in my backlog, I wanted to play through mordor once again to remind myself the story. The celebrimbor dlc is so worth it!
Forager
Well, I’ve bought every possible island/slot and got all the weapons, that counts as green, right? I do like it, but I’m just feeling done with it, even though there’s always more stuff to do.
Alchemist Adventure
I’m hooked to this, one of the few games I bought instantly after it hitting early acces. Sure, there are still some bugs and the game ain’t complete yet, but it is just so much fun
It’s been forever, let’s see if I can still do this! To lazy to google all the pretty banners, though.
Randomly picked up my 3DS and this cartridge was still inside… Had like 2-3 cases to go, and it’’s reminded me how much I love these layton games! I love the puzzles, the humor, the atmosphere…
Definitely worth playing.
Well, what can I say… I liked the original Fable and Fable 2 (3 was kinda a letdown for me.)
I’ve bought (And sold) the 360 version and picked this one up on steam a couple of years ago.
A few weeks I was looking for something not to complicated to play and randomly installed Fable. Of course had to start with a new save because I completely forgot all the controls (Story of my life… Same reason I’ve got a new Shadow of Mordor save. Wanted to miss around but forgot the controls etc.)
6/10. Not sure if it’s due to nostalgia and having grown up, or the new graphics being not as cartoony as I seem to recall but… It’s a decent game, but sometimes a bit slow and meh.
At least now I can scratch it off my backlog!
