2023 Video Game Tracker
So I did this thing last year where I mandated I finish a game every month. Said I wouldn't do it again, BUT now I feel like I gotta keep @drdoofwarrior accountable for doing that this year.
January - Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All was finished
SOME caveats for my journey this year:
I'm gonna be more lenient on myself. I wanna get at least 12 done, if that means two are in one month and a longer one pushes past the calendar month then so be it.
I'm also gonna allow for DLC Completes IF it's a DLC with a defined story. So for example: The Breath of the Wild DLC masks/clothes would not have counted, but the Champions' Ballad would have. I do legitimately have DLC stories on my backlog. (NOTE: If a DLC released before I play a game, I cannot count it separately from the game.)
Final note: The spirit of last year was "I want to game regularly and not have so much time between gaming." The stated goal was a Backlog Buster. The spirit meant I counted new games, which might have seemed wrong for Backlog Busting. Just saying: I am going by that spirit. Do not be surprised when Tears of the Kingdom is on this.
February - Metroid Prime Remastered was finished
This was a genuine backlog game. It coming out on Switch did really help, though.
April 3rd - The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog was finished
Adding a day because I will finish multiple games this month.
April 11th - Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Game was finished
May 1st - Horizon Forbidden West: The Burning Shores (DLC Campaign) was finished
June 9th - The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was finished
July 6th - Star Wars: Jedi Survivor was finished
August 24th - Tunic was completed
October 10th - Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Trials and Tribulations was finished
As a bonus, this also means The Ace Attorney Trilogy is done
Gonna try real hard to get another game done before Spider-Man 2 comes out. Anyone know what the play length on Homebody is? Have that downloaded to my Steam Deck.
October 14th - Homebody was finished
October 25th - Spider-Man 2 was finished
DANG this is a good game.
Also, dang, three scores in October and I'm officially ahead by a month.
November 6th - Night in the Woods was finished
That's 12 and this year done a month early.
No Way I'm doing this a third year since year two was to encourage @drdoofwarrior to do the year.
November 18th - Bugsnax: The Isle of Bigsnax (DLC Campaign) was finished
This is 13 things, but it's still 2023, so I figured I'd still update this.
