I just finished adding stuff from the Bandai Namco bundle (I went for the more-than-average tier) to my Steam account and Backloggery page and I noticed that my backlog has effectively grown by one game this year thanks to that. It has wobbled around shrinking by 3 or 4 games all year due to my diligence and a few sporratic purchases, but now it's back to negative progress (Backloggery's Memory Card feature frames it as a positive value if it's shrinking and negative if it has grown).
I thought I was making good progress for once, since I have seriously run out of older games I want to collect, so I can just focus on playing stuff I have. The current plan is to only buy Cold Steel 4 and save the rest of this year's titles for next year. But even so, it's a real up-hill battle to keep the backlog in check. I got some good deals on games from last year and there have been a few freebies thrown my way as well. Doesn't help that I'm mostly playing RPGs and needlessly rationing short games as well. My irrational fear is to only be left with 50+ hours games if I let myself indulge in shorter ones.
So tell me, how is your struggle going?
