Thread 719001036

It's time to confess.
How many games are in your backlog, anon?

>>719001036 (OP)
524 games

x-23ussy....

I don't have a backlog.
I just play whatever I want, whenever I want.

FF12 and Divinity 2, everything else is 100%

12 brown bricks

>>719001036 (OP)
way, way too many

>>719001036 (OP)
Over 700....

>>719001036 (OP)
I don't have a backlog because I'm not addicted to buying things that I don't intend to immediately use. When I buy a game, I play it.

45 on my pc but on my retroid i started like 5 games and on switch theres a few too.

>>719001109
are all those games bought legit?

>>719003061
Yes, I only add pirated or borrowed games to my backloggery if I finish them, every unfinished and unplayed games are games I bought and haven't finished yet, I'm REALLY bad at finishing games, I can't help but starting new games before finishing the ones I was already playing

>>719003331
Also I just noticed I messed up the math, it's 724 games on my backlog

>>719003331
is this a website or third party app?

>>719001036 (OP)
That number was over 1000 about three years ago, I went through and removed plenty that I knew I would never even try out plus I've been beating around 100 games each year

>>719001036 (OP)
i think i have around 850 unplayed game on steam

>>719003773
It's a website, backloggery.com
People usually don't like it tho because you have to manually add everything

I don't understand this mentality, if you don't plan on playing a game as soon as you buy it why even get it? Doing what you guys do would honestly make playing vidya a chore, something you don't do because you enjoy but because you need to avoid feeling buyer's remorse.
>b-b-buh it was on sale!
It'll go on sale again, and that's ignoring key sites/piracy. Honestly you guys just have shitty spending habits.

>go into a backlog thread
>be disgusted that people have backlogs

>>719001036 (OP)
actual games i bought but haven't played yet? like 5. games that i picked up because they were free? like 15 or 20. but i usually only buy games that i actually want to play when i want to play them.

140ish on my wishlist
8~ I bought but haven't played yet

Like 400 or 500, I don't expect myself to play them all and I force myself to never start more than 3 games at a time, I also got rid of all live service crap

>>719004868
i don't understand how this post pops up into every backlog thread, when it's such an obvious misunderstanding of what a backlog is

You buy games you WANT to play, but you also have other games you want to play TOO. it is a time issue, not a financial one
>if you don't plan on playing a game as soon as you buy it why even get it?
because you WANT to play, but you also WANT to finish playing this other game you've already started. Are you telling me you don't buy a new game unless you've 100% completed every game you already own?
>something you don't do because you enjoy but because you need to avoid feeling buyer's remorse
again, thats a fundamental misunderstanding. you buy it because you WANT to play it
>It'll go on sale again
yeah, like 6 months down the line, when i'll probably have started a different game. and by your logic, i shouldn't buy it then either

>>719001036 (OP)
Instead of making a selection from the vast universe of every videogame ever which would take me forever, choosing from the ones that I own (you're interested in playing them otherwise why buy them) makes for a good selection of what I should play and good backlog content. Out of my 118 PSX games I've beaten 63. I'm slowly tackling my backlog and enjoying every step of the way. I don't have a detailed excel for my ps2 collection but it's the same.
I'm doing something else at the moment but when I'm done with that I'll tackle RE2's Claire B path and cross it down the list, but I'm not sure what I should play next.
It's not like I only play games from any one system. I recently beat RE8 before that, and Megaman Battle Network 1 before that.

Sauce? Kinda ugly but kinda pretty too

>>719001036 (OP)

>>719004868
I passed on some Nintendo games and later they got a price hike in my country, now the price on sale is almost what it cost full price before, so yeah I don't like taking chances with sales

>fuck, either have to wait again or buy full price
>money lost
This isnt rocket science

>>719001036 (OP)
I would confess, but I genuinely don't know. Decent amount though. Gonna have some time for it the next few weeks so I'm excited.

Just one game. Name one game that does all that but better.
