LogFAQs > #979865192

started the backlog project on 4/8/21 so basically 3 years. started out with 143 games in the library although several of those were already beaten and ive got 278 now. ive beaten most, completed all i wanted to in things like fighting games, dropped some either due to skill issue or not liking it, sadly dropped one due to a softlock, and some im not coutning because i only have them because they were marked 100% off (shoutouts to the Free Games board) and i never had any intention of playing them. i doubt i finish the rest up this year because some of them are long rpgs plus im heading back into ff14 soonish to get ready for Dawntrail.

anyway the Final 10 are (in alphabetical order)

Black Desert
this one was available for free and ive always been kinda interested in it. dont know much about it other than its a korean mmorpg and it has a good character creator. planning on saving this one for last because in the event i like it and want to play it wont interfere with the rest of the backlog

Fortune Summoners: Secret of the Elemental Stone
one of the Carpe Fulgor games. i have 2.3 hours on record and last played 7/23/12 but yeah dont remember much of it. i dont think i liked what i played though. vaguely remember not liking the way it controlled or something. gonna give it another shot and see how it goes

Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition
i remember being intrigued by this back in the early 2000s but i never got it. i know its a DnD type situation and theres some thac0 but not much else.

Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition
another DnD type situation but this one i actually know a little about! i bought the original version of this many a year ago and ive still got it. neat little cloth map and binder type instruction manual and all. never played it much though. never really had a gaming pc so i couldnt really run it when i got it and had issues with a later computer too. compatibility issues i think. i actually intended to play this earlier but spent like 2 hours making a character, wasnt satisfied, failed in trying to find some good build guides, and kinda fell out of wanting to play it

Persona 4: Golden
hey alright. played the original when it released, watched the animes, played some spinoffs, but never played golden since it was vita-locked. looking forward to seeing best girl Marie in her debut game

Planescape Torment: Enhanced Edition
oh hey a 3rd DnD type situation. i got the original version on GoG, played it for a bit, was getting wrecked, looked things up, found i had probably put stat points in all the wrong places, decided to start over sometime, and never did. i also remember installing a bunch of mods which hopefully wont be necessary here. ive heard many a good thing about this so hopefully it doesnt disappoint

Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale
capitalism, ho! this was the first game i bought on steam and i played it for all of 3 hours. i think i got past the first deadline and was doing terrible in the 2nd one and then stopped playing. maybe itll go better when i start back up :/
(also the other carpe fulgor game Chantelise has already been beaten. i like that one)

System Shock 2
i only bought this because it was cheap and i heard good things and i know of SHODAN. im not even sure i know what kinda game it is much less if its the kinda thing i like. ill give it a shot though and see

Undertale
The Best Game Ever Made as voted for by prestigious website gamefaqs dot gamespot dot fandom dot com with many incredible characters such as Sans Undertale, that other skeleton, some fish lady a streamer i watch cosplayed as that one time, and like a goat woman?? and probably more! ive somehow managed to not play this and also to avoid most spoilers. i vaguely know things and i watched a little bit of the beginning in an LP and i know about the 3 different endings but uh not much else. should be a fun time

Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines
another game i bought based on hearing good things. i dont really know anything about it either. i think its an rpg and there may perhaps be a vampire in it?? i think i remember hearing about how it was stupidly hard to get running but im assuming that was disc version compatibility issues

and hey thats it! well for now. never know when a good humble bundle will drop and something goes for way cheap in a steam sale. plus i always be buying #fitegames

so uh i guess if anyone has any protips for any of those games lemme know. i dont think ill make this a playthrough topic since im probably heading to ff14 around the start of june so not much backlogging time left for now.
