I am back! (hopefully) with properly scheduled weekly thread.

Not much change from what I mentioned in last thread couple of days ago.

Still playing Sniper Elite 4, I think I am about 60-70% done. And got back into Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1 after taking a break over the holidays.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

And while we are at it, what are your new year's gaming resolution? Play more games? Play less games? Don't pre-order? Always pre-order?

I don't have anything as big as resolution, but I have been meaning to focus on older (J)RPGs from my wishlist / backlog that I haven't had time for. So, unless something changes, I am planning to go to my "patient gamer" roots and ignore (most of the) new stuff.

How long did it take you to beat Persona 5 Tactica?

I have heard good things about Boundless Trails, maybe I'll try it sometimes soon.

That's a good resolution. I usually only buy a game when I am ready to play it, or when I am sure I'll play it next and it's on sale, otherwise I don't buy games, no matter how good the sale is. Only backlog I have, is because of PS+, and all the games I keep adding to my list. But now I am thinking that I should ignore them too, for instance, I started Dragon Quest XI on PS because it as on PS+, even though I wanted to play it on Switch. So, going to ignore that from now on and just get the game where I want.

Around 20h.

That’s a good resolution. I usually only buy a game when I am ready to play it, or when I am sure I’ll play it next and it’s on sale, otherwise I don’t buy games, no matter how good the sale is.

I'm a physical game collector and I love some niche genres, so I tend to buy games early to avoid the risk of not finding them later.

Oh yeah, it's a completely different story for collectors.

Also, wasn't saying my way is the best. I often end up paying more than if I had bought games in good sales. 😀
