June 2022 Game Update

OMG it's already July?? June just zipped on by!

I didn't finish that much in June (just Ys IX, which I still want to write a review for oops), but I feel like I played quite a bit, so I'm happy about that. I feel like I'm starting to get out of a slump that I was in before, so a big win! The backlog did explode in June since I added a bunch of subscription games, but that's fine lol.

What isn't so fine (for my future wallet lol) is the latest Nintendo Direct! Gah, there was just too much there that looked like my sort of thing ._. The two farming games (Story of Seasons and Harvestella) look particularly up my alley. Also I just got a PS5 yesterday, so yeah that's not going to help backlog wise either cause I would like some more PS5 games lol.

Anyway, wrap-up time!

Backlog

Number of Games: 1576 (+41)
Time to Beat: 34,367 hours (-22)

So first off, I decided to switch the time to beat format from day + hour to just hours. It's just a little easier to comprehend I think.

Also, how did I add so many games yet the time to beat went down? Well, the answer is that I removed Dead by Daylight off of my backlog, since I didn't realize before that it was a multiplayer match only type of thing. I don't play those sorts of games (just not at all interested), and it just happened to have a HUGE estimated time to beat. It's a lot more than 22 hours, but all of the added games offset it by a lot lol. Either way that's fine by me!

Goal Games Beaten: 0/46

Since I only beat Ys: IX last month, not really a surprise that I didn't make progress here. At least I've finally started one of my goal games (Trails in the Sky), so maybe I can make some progress this time? XD

What’s Next?

Well, hopefully I'll make progress in all of my current games! I'm certain that I'll be playing some PS5 games too though lol. Particularly Astro's Playroom (already started it actually). I'm most likely also going to start Horizon Zero Dawn so I can get to Forbidden West lol.

Only "problem" is that my wedding is this month, so I bet it will be busy! We'll see what I can manage I guess!
