I've been backlogging for a while now and I've found a few helpful tips: 1. Add only games that you intend to beat. Don't add games you bought on impulse during a sale and don't care about anymore, or got in a bundle with games that you actually wanted. 2. Set a realistic, personal goal for beating each game. Decide on the difficulty level you want to play on, whether you want to do any side content, etc. You shouldn't just want to beat a game, but play it the way you want so that you actually have fun playing video games. FAQs and Wikis can help you determine what's in the game for you to do; just look out for spoilers. 3. "Complete" only games that you really enjoy playing. Don't go on pointless collection quests or do a hundred of the same side mission just to get a 100% progress rating. Admittedly, my OCD forces me to collect all the stupid packages and orbs in games, but I at least zone out to a podcast or music while I do it. 4. Don't add open-ended or multiplayer-only games. You'll play them when you feel like it and you'll enjoy them then. Regarding new purchases, I would echo another poster's advice and say that you should just purchase the games you really want at whatever price they're being sold at at that moment. Waiting for sales to buy a game you're interested in can result in you losing interest. Waiting for sales to buy a boatload of games you're only moderately interested in (if that) leads to huge backlogs of games you probably won't ever end up playing. Both of those scenarios result in wasted money. $10 for a game you never enjoy is more expensive than $60 for a game that you do. Rush_shirt fucked around with this message at 08:58 on Jul 20, 2014 |
