Think bigger anon
>>
Yeah mine also is huge but I recognize that I will likely never play all the games that I want to play in a single lifetime (and the same applies to books, movies, anime etc) and it's fine
You also don't have to finish the game if you don't like it, just drop it and move on
>>
>>741073036
Nice, anon. Is that finished or just played? Also, any repeats? It really saddens me seeing a high play count of vidya and see them having like 3 sets of the same game on there but different ports/console versions.
>>
>>741073036
You're never finishing that
>>
>>741072923
Not even looking at the rest of the list, play Vanquish.

I bought 20+ games from the recent GOG sale. I know your pain. I still haven't finished KCDII and have Jagged Alliance 3 also on my backlog with a few smaller games.

I don't track repeats/dlc/same games different ports. Except OFF that i played both on pc and the switch version. Otherwise the played list consist in mostly finished games, some that i played that i will never touch again and rhythm/arcade games that have no endings. The only games i replay sometimes is machinarium, fun 1 hour game at this point as i know everything by memory
>>741073337
Yeah, counting books/anime/manga i will not finish everything but that's fine

Rule number one of sharing your accounts without sharing your name, anon. Never show the recently played. Also, what is half this shit? Where's the good video games? It's mostly flash stuff and some fan games, not having a go at flash games but I expected some a bit more varied. You've never tried games like Ace Attorney, Zelda, Uncharted, Fallout, Splinter Cell, Metal Gear, Cave Story, Devil May Cry, Resident Evil?

The fact you've played all the Advance Wars games and the DKC trilogy is pretty impressive though. Also you should try Rhythm Thief, Hi Fi Rush and Gitaroo Man since you like rhythm games.

I did play Zelda Link's Awakening but that's it, i do have cave story to play. Devil may cry/resideng evil are not my things, i plan to play Bayonetta and the other nier automata games. Ace attorney maybe after i finished every layton games

>Devil may cry/resideng evil are not my things, i plan to play Bayonetta and the other nier automata games. Ace attorney maybe after i finished every layton games
I think you should give them a try (or at least the "best" ones of each) just to have an opinion on it and see if you might enjoy it. I played tons of games I didn't think I'd like and come out loving them by just giving them a try.

I only play 2 games at a time, so 1 is usually reserved for old favorites and rarely 1 is for the backlog:

Anno 1800, 1404, 2205, 2070
Poke Scarlett & Violett
Tomb Raider Remastered V, VI
Paraworld
Spellforce 2
Caesar
Pharaoh

Overall, I have more than enough to play for the next 20 years.
>>
>>741075445
That's pretty big. Stop fighting or trying to finish your backlog. Just think of it as never running out of games to play.
>>
>>741075808
Ah, I see. It's an okay top 25 that is unique. I'm glad it doesn't repeat any series some strange games on there but some good ones too, I'm surprised Omega Ruby somehow made it on there, I thought it was fine compared to the original Gen 3 games and kinda had nothing else I liked about it. Also, you're trans, right? Your games and list give off a very transvibe if you didn't know. Again, no insulting, just genuinely curious.

I also had a thought that you might enjoy Echoes of Wisdom so maybe look into that game.

It's just a better version of the original ruby, with megaevolution, evolutions like frostlass that i wanted to make a team with and the pet thing
>Echoes of Wisdom
I did buy it with tomodachi, i'll play it :P Now post your top 10 anon

>>741072923
you can remove all the visual novel garbage except for Phoenix Wright

>>741073197
Watching all the movies you want to watch in your lifetime is perfectly feasible, if you watch one per day you can easily watch 300 per year, and I doubt anyone has 2000+ movies they want to watch, the fact that there are hardly any movies worth watching coming out certainly helps.

>the fact that there are hardly any movies worth watching coming out certainly helps.
but this is the whole point, anon there 10k movies releasing every year, thousands of games (among AAA and indie), thousands of manga, maybe thousands of anime shows and films, if you are actually serious about watching movies or playing games you will have a huge ass backlog with thousands of film to watch and games to play, while some people are happy with watching imdb top 250 and calling it a day

Ah, I didn't really care for that stuff lol. I guess I grew out of Pokémon earlier than I thought since I really stopped enjoying the games by Black 2 despite Sapphire being my favourite one.

As for my top 10, it's probably something like this (in no real order after Skies)
>Skies of Arcadia
>Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective
>The Last Guardian
>System Shock 1
>Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
>Okami
>Grandia
>Phantom Crash
>Pokémon Sapphire
>Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil

I still debate this everytime someone asks me to post it, since there's a lot of other games I'd love to add but can never fully decide on it. I'm just bad at ranking stuff.

Nice, if you don't mind the encounter rate being high and would prefer the proper music, play it via Dreamcast. Otherwise Gamecube. Real shame that game doesn't have a proper port to a modern console.

>>741079632
I think he's talking about performative young people that just try to clear as many games as possible as fast as possible for the internet clout instead of just playing and enjoying games.
>>
>>741080245
Weird take since there's very little "clout" to gain from showing strangers how many games you've beaten

Play NO MORE HEROES already, fucker.

Also, you can remove all the Ace Attorney games from that list. You’ve already played the trilogy so there’s nothing left in the series worth experiencing.

I have a wiimote, should I emulate the original or play the PC version with a normal gamepad?
>>
>>741080731
wiimote is very much recommended. there's one gameplay mechanic that won't translate well on gamepad.
>>
>>741080810
Alright, guess it's finally time to get to it, it's been on my backlog for like 15 years
>>
>>741080810
If you're talking about the phone calls going through the wiimote, that stuff doesn't seem to work emulated which sucks.
>>
if you get rid of the bad games it'll take you no time at all
in fact you'll be all caught up!

Hey anons, I just updated my backlog exporting user script.
Now it supports 6 sites: Backloggd,GameFAQs, HowLongToBeat, IGDB, MobyGames and VNDB.
Please enjoy. This took me way too long. If there are bugs shoot me and then make a new issue report on github.

>didnt beat infection
fuck off fag
>>
>>741083780
But why
>>
>>741084173
Because I started it as Backloggd scrip, because backloggd didn't have an exporting feature. Then anons said there are better sites, so I added more sites.

Cookie's Bustle english patch, Child of Eden for PS3, Sonic Adventure DX dreamcast conversion mod, Mischief Makers (waiting for the PC port)

Backloggd bros...
I do just put anything even marginally interesting on my "backlog" though
>>
>>741072923
The trick is to start a playthrough of a complex short game and a simple long game, and maybe a third game like monster hunter where you can jump in for a hunt or 2 whenever you want. That way you have good variety and are less likely to randomly start another game or add more games to the pile.
>>
>>741072923
Go for Mega Man 9 and 10, they're short.
>>
>>741095438
Isn't that what everyone does? One long RPG style game, sprinkle in some shorter arcadey/action games or platformers when you're in the mood, play new games you're looking forward to as they come out, and have a few multiplayer games for friends in rotation.
>>
>>741096483
Some people myself included sometimes start a game then start another and another and another and finish none of them. Then they'll beat an action game 3 times in a few days.
