07/05 - Stormy Monday

Wow, and I thought I had a lot of games

 

Its quite easy to accumulate a lot of games if you get into the humble bundles and other bundle sites... I started to get really annoyed with all the crap games in my library from bundles, so I stopped adding any keys from bundles that didn't look good

 

Yeah wow... I get sucked into a game and I'm alllllll about it and no other game exist until I'm burned out on that one. I don't play many, but I play the crap out of the ones I do play.

I got about 300 or so deep before I realized I was just buying games because they were on sale, not because I actually wanted to play them.

Its easy to get into the excitement of big sales.. even if the games are good, it gets to be ridiculous when you end up with more games than you can play.

I'm committed to not buying any more games until I actually play what I already have, unless its a crazy deal for a really great game.

Lately I've been thinking about playing something in the background when turking is dead, like a strategy game such as Civ or something. Twin stick style shoot em ups are good for this as well since you can play short rounds and pause when needed

Yeah I have a bunch of keys in my Humble Bundle library that I never bothered with. I have had Steam since 2010 I think.. so that's a long time to accumulate.. When I started out, a friend was heavy into Humble Bundle and kept giving me his codes, too, so that's a lot of the games there. Plus.. Steam sales used to be more amazing than they are now haha

 

Yeah I only grabbed three games so far on the Summer Sale, not much is really jumping out at me.

 

I actually was like that somewhat.. I'm not sure what happened.. I get distracted by everything now. The rogue lite game gets the most attention (Tallowmere 2) right now because it's mindless. I didn't even mention the MMORPG games like WoW and Elder Scrolls Online, both of which I am on a break from. And Runescape.. yes, Runescape lol.. I have been playing that one for a loooong time; actually it's the first game on my PC I played consistently and that started in summer of 2001, six months after it was created.

 

I can't play games like WoW and Elder Scrolls. I'll play them 12+ hours a day and stop socially functioning. Maybe I should have picked it up last year when we had not much else, but I didn't.
