The never ending struggle of beating the backlog.

I intend to beat all the (acceptable) games in my library. This promise has taken me way too many years and is still in progress. I don’t intend to complete games. Aiming to get 100% rate is not worth it for me. Completing the main campaign (or similar) and getting as many achievements on the way counts as beating the game for me.

Less gaming in this month but continued cleaning old bundles with Thief. Likely focusing more on co-op games during next months.

Thief

Not as good as I hoped for. I have played the original ones but cannot remember the details so hard to compare. Traveling in city had too many loading points. I also disliked how the dashing mechanism worked. Felt too floaty and kept bumping into guards because of that.

Achievement are broken for some reason. This one was alright action game. Played it in two player co-op. All areas were done pretty well but nothing exceptional. Might get hectic with four players and high difficulty.

March 2025

It feels I haven’t made much progress this year. One reason could be that current games seem to be time sinks. Or I don’t throw enough hours at the problem. Oh well. Marking Nordic Ashes as finished as I likely won’t play it anymore.

Way late for this update but better than never? Slow month. Didn’t really play that much compared to usual activity. Against the Storm feels kinda nice but has quite limited gameplay strategies and each round takes too much time, in my opinion.

December 2024

Year is over. This one resulted in slight increase in backlog. Got some of the oldies up and running behind dusty counters. Nevertheless, there still remains few that are either (mostly) untouched or ones that have been hanging unfinished for way too long. Could try to tackle, at least some of, those next year. Witcher 3 will take quite long time to beat as I have all the extras.

Achievements don't work for some reason but completed the game on the highest difficulty. I would say it is solid B grade action game. For some reason, I don't roll with the way this studio works things out. Fairy tale setting was interesting but severely unutilized.

Was disappointed with this one. Haven't played a fighting properly game for a long time so had higher hopes. The fighting mechanic just didn't feel good. I guess it emphasizes countering and dodging more than usual? I just want to smash buttons and get killer combos.

Just marking this as beaten because won't likely play it anymore. It was fun, especially in co-op because you can get more tactical that way. Gameplay terms were confusing at first but you get hang of it after some time. No idea why achievements aren't working but got most of them.

This had been on my list for a long time. It is somewhat strange game that brings an unique gaming experience. Choices matter and will impact gameplay in an original way. Game relies heavily on text (which is also spoken) so don't get it if you don't want an (audio) book. World and characters were compelling and the story was good. Really good western style RPG without combat mechanics.
