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.
November 2025
Finished Wizard with a Gun and continued Lords of the Fallen. Latter one had been collecting updates as it had severe technical issues on summer. Thronebreaker is nearing its end. Just started last map, I think.
Finished
Kinda okay game. Played in co-op, which was nice. Didn't really feel like wizard with a gun, though. Felt more like cowboy with elemental guns. Somewhat missed opportunity as was they could have gone leaning more into Magicka style approach. Recreating world each time was also really not utilized. Not a bad game but lots of room for improvements.

Late for October’s status update. Nothing spooky about it.
Finished
What a grind fest! Getting good enough weapons to complete harder levels is praying to to RNG gods. Then you needed to complete all story missions in the same difficulty setting. So if you finish one in hard and the rest in normal, game won't mark story finished in normal. In the end beat the game in normal + hard on ranger and on normal for wing diver. In hindsight, ranger felt inferior class. Game was clearly designed for multiplayer or more mobile units. It almost felt like and insult after having been playing as ranger for so long. :D
Finished with this one. Could continue grinding more of the difficult challenges but turned more or less immortal in basic game. Its a decent survivor game.
Okayish game that could have had slightly more depth into it. Now builds got slightly stale and kept repeating themselves.

Quite little gaming this month and still no major progress. EDF has been way too grindy. Need better weapon(s) to clear couple more missions but cannot get game to drop those. Bug-ger.

No major progress. EDF has been a grind. Achievements are also bonkers. You have to finish all missions with same difficulty setting. So clearing all on hard will unlock only hard achievement and not any below it. And of course, each class has its own difficulty achievements.

Summer has been hot. Perhaps not much time has been on playing but the backlog is still burning.
Finished
Marking this now as done. It is fun ship crew game. Played with friend. Would have been better with at least three people so all positions (pilot, gunner, and engineer) could have been at the same time.
Heavily emphasizing story over gameplay. Characters and story were okayish not but nothing outstanding. Thus somewhat disappointed. Had troubles understanding some of the quick time events, which was annoying.

Trying to clear some of the old Humble bundle stuff away during this summer. Hence, larger increase in backlog as I activated bunch of games at once.
Finished
It was okayish. Nothing major or groundbreaking but fun at times and did not try to last too long so mechanics kept fresh enough. Couple bosses required multiple tries on normal difficulty.
Another Remedy game. Mediocre story with some silly stuff included. Gameplay mechanics were decent. Could have been better in overall.

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

Started digging through my old bundles again. Picking games that I had planned to play someday years ago. Fulfilling that promise now.
Finished
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.
Short and sweet enough. Perhaps not as good as the earlier games but it had that Devil May Cry feel.

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.
Finished
VS clone with a viking theme. Was pretty alright. Different characters gave it variety.

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.
