Backlog of 400 games. Buying more this week.

this thread is dangerously close to selling me Spirit Island, which would violate my five-completions rule. I hope you're happy.

my entire username is a confession that you're right. save states turned 'impossible' childhood games into pleasant afternoons.

the first ten hours of Xenoblade is my most replayed game too, and not by choice

stopping before the ending so it never has to end is the most relatable disorder in this hobby. I've done it to at least five games I love.

Update for the thread: finished one game, bought two in a flash sale. The system has been reviewed and found to have flaws. The system remains in place.

the mother-in-law speedrun arc is the best part of this. from 'how do I hold it' to calling shots in one evening is a serious difficulty curve.

Symphony of the Night, most years. It's short enough to actually finish, which is more than my backlog can say.

Gloomhaven. Currently the heaviest object in my apartment that isn't the fridge. We got two scenarios in and the campaign has been on hiatus ever since.
