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.

Someone ordered English Transcription and Japanese Translation and asked that we prioritize the Japanese.

Like - the English to English scribes are different people than the Japanese translators. They work at the same time. It is impossible to prioritize either against the other in any positive or negative way.

I just witnessed a fucking murder

I love how it’s unclear if Data has any idea whatsoever that he just murdered Worf.

And the decisive little head nod at the end before he walks off - like, yup, I just solved that problem, good for me.

I also love the way that when Data says β€œYou share all of those qualities in abundance!” Worf just looks up like

this is the absolute best thing you could have added to my post, thank you, I have been laughing at comparing Worf’s face to this cat for ten minutes

Which episode is this?

Season 7, episode 2 "Liasons"

Tumblr is an easy website, all you gotta post is "some men are pretty" and you'll get maybe four notes (the record number)

It was TWO YEARS between the Switch 1 and the Switch Lite???

God fucking damnit

They might not do a Switch 2 Lite AT ALL 🀬

They're definitely going to do a Switch 2 Lite. I honestly think they'll be inventivized to do it even sooner.

I certainly hope so

I don't want to be caught buying a Switch 2 and then like 6 months later they launch a Lite version

6 months would fall into sooner comparatively, so I'd recommend waiting before you adopt

"Sex is what makes us human" is stupid. Almost every species fucks. Humans are the only species that jumps motorcycles over school buses that are on fire. Some other things too probably

No, it's just the flaming school busses thing. Every other creature does all other stuff.

I was looking at the PTO balance I'll lose in June and I said "fuck it" and took off the Switch 2 release date.

Meanwhile the preorders are still uncertain and it's very likely I won't procure one

shakespeare wasn't lying that tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow can creep in this petty pace from day to day

neither was Smash Mouth. the years start coming and they don't stop coming

Time really does keep on slippin slippin slippin into the future

I like the BotW Blessing shrines where the dude could NOT have known getting there would be enough.

Like, you planned for an alcoholic Gerudo to pass out on the pedestal?
