Let’s see how this site works.


December Update

After a month hiatus without much progress I return to this site.

December Monthly Theme: Best of

I only started playing games for this theme one week ago. That’s why I didn’t play any long games. I did, however, like what I played
We Were Here is a great co-op f2p game. I played it with a friend in one sitting and it’s amazing. We loved completing it and we plan to play the sequel soon.
Bastion is a game most of you probably already know. It’s supergiants first game and it’s very sweet. I love the narration and the music and the atmosphere they create is amazing.
The Sexy Brutale is an odd one. It’s a timetravel murder story adventure thingy. I adore this game… Trying to save everyone in a groundhogs day style scenario is amazing.

Long-term Projects

These are the games I’ll finish in the (very) distant future.
I played The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth for a long time this month. I’m getting further and further, but the end is not near yet.
Stardew Valley is my favourite game at the moment. I absolutely love playing it and my farm is growing nicely. I will soon finish the bundles (which I consider beating this game), but finishing it will take a while.
Hitman 2 and Euro Truck Simulator 2 are games that I play from time to time and make some progress while I play them. I made some progress in Hitman, but not much in ETS2.

Other

These are the other games I played this month. There is not much to say about them… I gained some achievements, but I didn’t hunt for them.

Pile of Shame aka. New Games

We Were Here is f2p, so I just added it to my account. After playing it I bought We Were Here Too, to play it soon.
Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition was a must buy for me. I played the HD version for a very long time. I look forward to playing it with my friends in multiplayer.
Zombie Driver HD was free on steam and it looked nice, so I added it to my account.

2019 reflection

I completed 13 games this year, which is one more than last year. I also finished two long term projects (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Metal Gear Solid V: the Phantom Pain) and I’m very happy with that. I look forward to 2020.

October Update

Hey, this is my second month on tgis site and my first post. I mostly played games I’ve already played and I didn’t finish a single one. (shame on me) My achievment hunting was quite lacking… This should get better in November.

October Monthly Theme: SCREAM

Horror games are not my cup of tea. That’s why I only played one “real” horror game. The Town of Light wasn’t to my liking. Especially in the beginning of the game I just find it boring…
Danganronpa 2 was the other horror game I played, but it’s not what I would call a typical horror game. I absolutely loved it. It was even better than the first game and I already loved that one… I didn’t manage to complete it, but I will definitely try to do so in November (Did I mention that I love this game?)
ABZÛ was my CAPSLOCK game for the theme. It’s a short atmospheric journey and I quite liked it. It has no engaging gameplay whatsoever, but it’s still pretty enjoyable.
I also wanted to play Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch.2 Watanagashi, but I sadly didn’t have enough time to play it

I played a lot of Hitman 2 this month. I just boot it up from time to time and finish a challange.
Euro Truck Simulator 2 is my chill-out game, but this month I mostly played it to complete the community challange.
I took a break from The Binding of Isaac, but I started playing it again this month. I made some progress, but I still have a lot to do.
I didn’t play a lot of Stardew Valley this month, but I still strive to beat it soon.

I bought Fallout New Vegas after hearing so much praise about obsidians new game. I wanted to try NV for a while and this gave me the push I needed.
Princess Remedy 2: In A Heap of Trouble was free on steam for a limited time and it looked nice.
