Now that Baldur's Gate 3 is popular here are the last 10+ years of games you could've also been playing 7

Listen here you nerds, I know you're all very excited for the Baldur's Gate and I'm very happy for you. But now it's my time to spring upon you this subtle revelation: They've been making video games like Baldur's Gate 3 for the last decade and chang

Buckle up fuckers it's time for another list and another dangling threat of a write-up. Don't tempt me. You know I'll do it. I'll probably do it. I played a lot of games this year and wrote a lot of paragraphs. Don't think I won't do it again, mister

List is not final until the blog comes out, because this one is difficult. But hey, in case you were wondering, played some absolute bangers this year. Limiting this down to 10 is gonna be an ordeal, and I'm not even counting replays.

The list where I keep track of the video games I played because I'm too stubborn to use a google doc and too egotistical to put it on a place where other people can't see it. What does "notable" mean? Whatever I want it to, but assume at least a few

ArbitraryWater's Favorite Games of 2020 (That didn't come out in 2020) 2

Ok so this is the list that matters because I sure did play a lot more non-2020 games than 2020 games this year. Funny how that works?

You should know the drill by now. This list is to help keep track of the nonsense I spent my time on this year, so I can look back at it in approximately 12 months and say "Welp, probably shouldn't have done that."

It's that time of year again, when people on the internet attempt to compare video games released in one calendar year against each other. What if there was a better way? What if, instead of talking about whatever video games came out in this tumultu

Instead of doing just another backlog list for "Stuff I'll totally play in 2017 guys. Trust me" I figured it would be a fun experiment to focus this list entirely on the various RPGs I own that I'd really like to play at some point. Anyone who knows
