In the last three months, I became a new dad, and somehow, I also managed to play 8 games, 6 to completed from my ever-growing backlog. From chaotic co-op sessions and emotional walking sims to tactical RPGs and forgotten multiplayer shooters, this was a journey of discovery, persistence, and a few very late nights.
In this video, I reflect on what I played, what I learned, and how I’m reshaping the way I approach my gaming time. If you’re trying to manage your own backlog, balance life, or just find the fun in finishing games again, this one’s for you.
