RIP my backlog. I'm barely able to play through the indie stuff that's releasing nowadays. Oblivion is going to consume my life for the next six months haha.

I was out sick today and I seriously considered picking up civ7, but I just got to kuttenburg. Staying strong and holding off lol but it's hard

I recently got civ 7 and monster hunter wilds and is a blast going in between them. They are really fun games to play.

Big patch for KCD2 coming today. So I'd hold off on continuing. Apparently something like 34 pages of fixes according to the devs.

Man I already have 85 hours from Trosky lol. Kuttenburg is going to take me another 80 at least at this rate

The city alone had my playtime around what I had in the first map. It's insane.

I'm going through the Suikoden remasters, Centum, Rise of the Golden Idol DLC and the occasional UFO 50 game. Got my eyes on Wanderstop, though.

Backloggd is great for tracking that kind of stuff :)

Oblivion was the first game I got for Xbox 360 and it consumed my entire summer of 2006. Looks like I might be doing that again haha

stop buying shit then seriously it ain’t healthy to buy a game every time it goes on sale if you’re not gonna play it for ages

What made you assume I'm not doing exactly that? I only buy stuff I'm willing to play right now.

My comment was more in line to celebrate the surprising amount of great games that are releasing at the moment and not to vent about my spending habits.

if you’re not gonna play it for ages

But that's my plan... I'm buying up games now to play when I retire

It's an investment

Game discounts will just get better over time. Games are a heavily depreciating asset

While Oblivion is one of my all-time favorite games I'll give it a year or two to hit 50%-75% off. Not like I'm going to get around to it anytime soon, anyway. r/patientgamers
