75 not beaten? lol try over 1000 son!

Having a shit rig is what's stopped me from playing. I've got the money to buy a new one but I can't really get myself to do it considering the cost of living never stops increasing. But even thinking about it is getting me more excited than I have been in like 20 years. If I end up doing it I'd probably be able to play games like they're a full time job for 3 years and still probably have a hundred or so games left to play.

Making my spreadsheet a few weeks ago was a daunting task - 600+ games going all the way back to the 80's. Finishing will also a daunting task. But I don't *need* to finish it. I do know from tracking the last couple years is that I can complete roughly 30-40 games per year. That's considerably more than the number of new releases I care care about. I *can* do this. My problem was replaying comfort games over and over in my early life, as well as getting addicted to the "infinite" games that you can never truly finish. For me it was 2000 hours of Factorio, 1000 hours of From the Depths, you get the idea. For you it might be multiplayer games, or some free to play live service. I'm not saying don't play these games, but don't let them take over your gaming life. Approaches like these work. I've completed roughly 500 games over the course of my life that I can remember. 1/5 of those are in the last 3 years when I sat down and decided to really work on that backlog.

My backlog is 50 games long. I'm working on Xenoblade Chronicles 3, next up is Final Fantasy VII (the original).

It's amazing, not many people do turn on PC before an actual build. Honestly, I would do the same if ever decide to build own PC.

you have some titanium balls to buy a frickin 4060ti and pair it with a i9 14900k (14th gen has no upgrade path btw) and you bought a SSD with heatsink?! you can use the one in the motherboard! pls dont tell me you put a 4060ti and 4800mhz ram on 3k pc! ps: intall MSI afterburner for benchmarking

I have a 492 games on my to play list rn in 2020 it had abt 450 I accepted that I will never be able to play everything

Great video! Yeah I’ve struggled with comfort replaying ever since I started gaming as a kid. For me personally, it’s really just a case of subduing life’s anxieties by me thinking “ok I know where I stand with this! So therefore I’m comfortable because I know I’m capable and I’m going to have a chill time” I know this is all floored logic tho since this mindset has deprived me of games I REALLY WANT to play. It’s not all bad tho…In a way it’s given me a solid foundation for what my tastes are and it’s given me definitive games that I will cherish in my heart ❤️ forever. I also like the more grindy games because it means I can do something productive with my hands while watching a movie or something. That’s just a me thing tho… 😅

That's a cool video in my recommendations! Thanks you bro!

Great video, nice editing, thoughtful analysis. I found it very helpful ❤

This is the video I needed to see today. Been struggling with this for a while now, and this hit EVERY feeling I had on the issue. Thanks dude

My girl and I finished Cuphead this month, started it together in January. I am big into gaming but not so much platforming, she was always casual. I still can’t believe we actually came together to kick that games ass 🎉❤

Great video bro

cool

great vid but finishing games isnt hard finishing games u don't enjoy is hard but if there is a game u don't enjoy but u really wanna finish it find a way to enjoy it whether its only doing the main quests or playing in creative mode etc

games used to be such a big part of my childhood i still like games a lot but now as an adult i constantly struggle to have motivation to play games anymore and starting to question myself often if i really should have bought the games i had i can still find joy in games but it has gotten quite a lot harder oh also this is a really nice video ^^

Hey, is there an email address I could send about a possible collaboration?

I have something like 500 games in my backlog. It's rough lol. It's really hard for me to focus and enjoy games. Sometimes a game will REALLY click with me and that'll be all I care about until it's done, or at least for a solid couple of weeks or so. But then I enter this period where nothing clicks and I don't enjoy anything anymore. Lots of really cool games but I"m just not in the mood for any of them. I get interested in like, extremely hyperniche styles of games that just don't exist. And it becomes extremely difficult to play _anything_ until eventually the stars align and I just find another game that just sucks me in. It doesn't help that I'm very friction sensitive too. I don't really like hard games. If a game is too difficult/stressful, especially too quickly, I bounce off of it hard. If it's making me frustrated I'd rather just play something else. But at the same time, the game can't _feel_ too easy. If it feels like the only way to lose is to do so deliberately, or there's nothing to "figure out" about the game, then it ceases to be engaging. It's surprisingly difficult to find the right middle ground there.

75 rookie numbers

Wow nice vid it was super relatable and cool to watch, love the content, and keep on doing what you love!

This happens to me but depending on what game I will fully finish it before forgetting about it

Muito bom seu vídeo! Parabéns pelo trabalho

Know what's sad, I watching your video and then puase at part and say to myself do I own that game and then immediately buy two games

So funny I was just thinking to myself how at this rate im gonna die with my backlog untouched.. ADHD stunlock gets me hard

I think it's better to redefine what a backlog is. It shouldn't be every game you own since you don't even know if you'll like each game you play. That's just your collection. Your backlog should consist of the games you've played that you want to finish, but just haven't yet. It makes the list of games in your backlog much smaller with this mindset

In Nintendo switch sports I destroy my dad in tennis.

I think I'm your 100th subscriber. 😅

An amazing video with great choices like always.

I am really excited to see your progress. I will try doing it too 😊. And btw great content you just gained a new subscriber

This entire video was copied from Daryl Talks Games even to some paragraphs taken almost unchanged.

I'm gonna be honest if microphone was higher quality I would thought you're a big youtuber (minimum 10k subscribers)

Sometimes you replay games, because you missed nuances in the first time. Sometimes you replay a part of a game, because you notice it is a later part in a whole series. In my case I started playing Trails Of Cold Steel until I noticed in Forum comments the game was the 6th part in a whole series. So I played from the beginning (Trails In The Sky), and am now finishing the 10th part (Trails Into Reverie) and waiting for the next part (Trails Through Daybreak). Other time games are just fun to replay. For example - Replaying a game from the Atelier series is fun, because you now have a better grip on the Alchemy in the game (that changes more or less every game), that let you synthesize even better stuff and unlock things you could not unlock in your first play through. Also replaying games is fun, because you can play as another character (or make different choices) with a different game play and outcome, and also doing side quest I missed or was not able to do the first time. Yeah - I do replay games every now and then.

Also, not to mention every time you replay a game it's a new experience. Every run is truly its own beast. Especially in a game like Pokemon.

It’s a very easy answer, to broke to buy anything new

Looks like some fun games on your list. I also had some inspiration from Daryl talks games. I didn't set any deadlines, but i made my way through a handful of fun games and ticking them off the list helped with some motivation to at least start them. Hope you enjoy some of the games you got there

Hey sorry for not streaming guys, my plan is to tomorrow. I was going to today but it seems that I am having technical issues that will not allow me too. I’ll try and get it fixed as soon as possible

I have been tackling my backlog on and off for a while now. Being able to look back on what I have completed is helpful. This year I am focusing on getting through three games: Persona 5 royal, Hades and Immortal Fenyx rising. Happy to say I made it through Persona 5 royal and can now stop trying to evade seeing spoilers and clip from the game (game youtubers love showing persona 5 clips) I am looking forward to seeing what you learned from all of this next year. :)

i've tried a similar approach of making a list of all my games on my website and going through them one by one. so far that hasn't worked at all. having 3-4 hours to play games every day is not enough to get through a backlog of more than 150 switch games and more than 800 unplayed steam games - especially when most games i enjoy are rpgs and jrpgs which easily eat up 100 hours or more each. what helped a bit was to just ignore steam alltogether. now i only play games on the switch and use the pc for everything non-gaming. a problem i encountered after stopping to buy steam games was that i started to buy 6-10 switch games a month while only being able to beat 1 or 2 in that time. at least they look good in my shelves. recently i started to just gift switch games to my fiancee, which seems to be the perfect solution. i can focus on my backlog and still get all the new games i want to play sooner or later, but it's her pile of shame that keeps on growing and not mine.

Oh 75 , I wish I could say the same, be glad you're not almost reaching the 4 digit mark like me and go for it seriously!

Bro when are you coming back

I started this at the same time DarylTalksGames did with my own spreadsheet. It went well, I didn't finish everything, I don't think I ever will. But it makes it easier to pick games, easier to play games I wasn't sure I wanted to stick with, and easier to put games down if I knew there was nothing they could do for me. I've kept the list going this year and I'm I look forward to your journey and how it went in a year's time.

W vid

Ever since 2023 I’ve been trying to finish the majority of my backlog. I finished 49 games last year and 10 so far this year. Currently working on Assassin’s Creed Mirage. I feel like things have gone rocky over the last year but now I’m smoothly going through games, I just stick to games I like. If there’s a game I dislike or can’t get into I either don’t return or save for later. Now I have a nice list I’m cracking through. More games will come and some I’ll return too. I’ll never finish my backlog but I don’t have too.

So, I had a backlog of around 180 games - all games I actually want to play - and since the beginning of December I've now played through 14 of them. I'm making good progress but it will still take me over 3 years to complete at this rate, but that doesn't bother me because I'm having a lot of fun.

This is a place I called deepness I left the game soon as I saw. What went those things do when you killed them

OH NOOOO IMM SORRY I had to go to bed

actually im not playing bcs i dont have time for it. :0

When will you stream again i'm sorry I had to take a bath

*Promo sm* 😻

YEEEEEES!
