After very much enjoying He Who Fights With Monsters book one I may have just binged books 2, 3 and 4 back to back to back

Loving the series so far but gonna take a break for now to avoid burnout, I've got no idea what to read next though as my TBR list is massive

4 Games I Dropped This Year:

Metaphor: I dropped because Yotei and Battlefield 6 took over my life

Oblivion: I put 80-100 hours into and fancied a break / got distracted

Sea of Stars: I absolutely loved something new came out (can't remember what)

Death Stranding: I wasn't in the mood for

I always want to complete any game that I start, but sometimes things get in the way. Bad timing or one flaw can ruin everything.

But just because I abandoned a game doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it. Here are my top 8 games I abandoned this year.

My Top 8 Games I Abandoned In 2025
Welcome to what looks like it will be a yearly feature for me now. Last year, I wrote about my top seven games that I abandoned. This year it’s eight. And when I compare these lists, I’…

Think I'm gonna do another mostly backlog year next year and limit what I buy to ridiculous deals and absolute must buys like GTA 6 and probably Bloodstained and Wolverine as well

Its been nice this year having a list of games I've held off on that people can buy me for Christmas etc, many on offer

Day #16: Game made outside the US

I could go down the expected route and name one of the many JRPGs I love or something by CDPR but instead I'm gonna shout out Valheim, an addictive survival crafting game from Iron Gate Studios out of Sweden, blink and 10 hours have gone

Just seen KCD2 for a ridiculous price, the hype has got me sooooo tempted but I already bounced off the first game

I love how much of a portable JRPG powerhouse my Switch is Xenoblade, Persona, Trails, Octopath, Tales of and much more

The only thing missing is a smaller form factor the 3DS XL and Vita were pushing it but at least they were borderline pocketable

Gotta say the non cutscene resolution is rough but the portability will be nice

Another too tempting black friday deal, just picked up P5R on Switch for £12.50 which is an absolute steal

Happy Thanksgiving to all those who celebrate

As a Brit Thanksgiving means little to me but as a man who greatly appreciates both food and family it's something I'd like to experience someday

Day #15: Game with minimal dialogue

Slay The Spire

One of the most addictive games I've ever played, introduced me to the world of deckbuilders especially of the roguelike variety

Hello beautiful people 👋🏼

While my mom is thankfully home from the hospital, her battle is just beginning. She will soon start chemotherapy & weekly Dr visits that will require me to be her full time caregiver. I know times are tough, but anything at all helps us 🫂

I love you guys

Finally started Vinland Saga season 2, about 8 episodes into it so far and I'm not sure how to feel about it

It's good but fuck me is it a slow burn, feels like a completely different show to season 1

Day #14: Game you've put 100+ hours plus into

Battlefield 6

There's plenty of games I could've chosen for this especially on the JRPG front but lets go with the latest game to consume my life

123hours played according to my PS5 not bad at all for a little over a month

Day #12: Game with fantastic writing

The Witcher 3

There are plenty of games I could've picked but this first to come to mind was The Witcher 3

The writing in the Witcher really shines in its side content, something that often feel like an afterthought in other series

Day #12: Game that makes you LOL

Yakuza (series)

There's plenty of games I could mention Portal, Saints Row, South Park, BFBC etc but Yakuza has made me laugh consistently across the series with its outrageous nonsense

Like a Dragon in particular has some great moments
