I wish I was getting there.
Last night, in a fit of “what else could I possibly do?” I checked out some people for potential geek-buddies and one of them had a list of what their game of the year was in their profile. I thought, “wow good idea”, I should do that.
And then I went through the years 2000+ (I later did the 90s backwards and got as far as 1992 before I ran out of games.) to find out what game I liked best each year. It became a mix of “game I liked back then” and “game I like from that year now” and wow 2005 was a bad year. In any case, the last 2 years I bought so many new games and yet it was comparably trivial to jot down my single best game for each. Yes, Beyond the Sun and Oath are really really great but other years were so much harder to determine with far fewer games to chose from…
So all that to say… I am hoping to eventually slow down. Because apparently the quality of stuff I buy isn’t getting better.
