2024 Gaming Plans

[aharman31495]

I don’t know about you guys, but I enjoy Palworld so much. The first time I heard about this game was 2 weeks ago, and now it’s my favorite game. I don’t think I enjoyed a game so much, at least from the last 3 or so years. Finally, it’s something different. Tired of triple A games that are constantly feeding us with the same recipe.

Goal complete 8 games: 0

Live Service game:
All 3 still kicking along with these. GT7 still going strong. The Division 2 is getting a big update tomorrow so that should be good. Although Mortal Kombat 1 has slowed down a bit. I usually just do the invasions but the skins this go around were meh no need to grind coins to get any of them.

In Progress:
Tales from Arise - Tapped out. Realized if there's a RPG with a party mechanic I need it to be turn based. For me action RPGs are fine only if there's a singular protag. Otherwise no thanks.

EA FC - On a break. Got bored with the gameplay. Taking a month off from it.

Currently Playing:
The Quarry - I love these "playable" choose your own adventure horrow games. Finished the first 2 chapters. It's got David Arquette how could you not be on board!

Octopath Traveler II - Now this is my type of RPG. Like the characters and gameplay, Wasn't sold on the 2.5 HD design at first but it's grown on me. For the first time in a long time I'm eager to play.

PGA 2k23 - I have soft spot for golf games despite having no interest in the sport IRL, Player faces are subpar but the game play well enough for my needs and it's a good way to unwind.

Possible Purchases:
Likely - MLB the Show '24. - Last one I really put any time into was '20. Barely touched '21 and '22. Skipped '23 altogether, Thinking it might be time to jump back in getting that baseball itch.

Maybe - Persona 3, Stellar Blade, Alone in the Dark, Spider-Man 2

New month new update. I would say that I am definitely short of the pace that I set for myself so far, considering I still haven't seen the end credits of any game, but I did make some progress towards the end of Feb in nearly completing Hogwarts Legacy.


2024 Goals:
With so few new releases that I'm really excited for I am making this the year of completing titles. I failed my goal too complete 3 games in 2023, but I did make significant progress in a number of them.

1.) Complete 4 of the following games that I am carrying over from 2023

Spoiler

Spiderman 2
Ghosts of Tsushima: Director's Cut
Baldurs Gate 3
Hogwarts Legacy
Horizon Zero Dawn
Pokemon Violet
Shenmue I
Jade Empire
Control

Progress: 0 from the list, but I am around 75% done with Hogwarts Legacy (newly added to the list but started many months ago). However, things don't look good for clearing it any time soon. I have recently gotten back into Total War Warhammer 3 after some of the recent dev updates, and Rise of Ronin comes out this month.

2.) Complete 3 other games (new releases or others)

Progress: NA


Most Anticipated Sports Games:
EA College Football

Most Anticipated Non-Sports Game:
Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines 2 (TBD)


Other titles that have my attention going into the year:

Quote:

Completed 2(goal 8) games so far:

The Quarry and Donut County

Currently Playing Non-Sports:
Octopath Traveler - Slowly plugging away at this. Really enjoying it though. It's the perfect game to just play in short bursts but still make good progress

The Wolf Among Us - Heard good things about this for years and so far this does not disappoint. About a 3rd of the way through.

Beat Saber - Decided I should finally use my VR for something other than GT7. This is a heck of a work out. Fun though.

Currently Playing Sports:
EA FC 24 - get in a match here and there when the mode hits. Usually after watching a real match.

PGA 2k23 - Currently half way through the first season in MyCareer

WWE 2k24 - Just picked this up today cause of the old school wrestlers haven't played yet.

I'm feeling much better about my gaming progress and enjoyment this year. Best move on the non sports gaming side has been pairing a short game with a longer one. Also pre-ordered MLB the Show '24 Looks like I had actually skipped '21 as well as '23. Which I might make it just go ahead and make an every other year purchase.
