As mentioned in the last update, I've been playing the console version of Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition . It is a game revered by a certain generation of late 90's gamer. A standout in a time of a standout RPG's. A rip roaring adventure through the world of Dungeons and Dragons . It's contents a veritable checklist for everything gamers look for in a legendary RPG. Yes it's 'finally getting around to playing another classic game' time again. Now that I've gotten around to playing the thing and having sunk a few dozen hours into it I'm going to ramble on at length about how it sucks...
Since restarting the blog three years ago I've made great strides into clearing the perpetual gaming backlog that irked me so much back then. It has been a busy few years and a great many games have been completed post-COVID. It's a fine line of course I don't want this to feel like a task or a chore to clear but at the same time, games are not meant to be accumulated without actually... you know playing them. So played them I have and h aving tracked my ongoing thoughts on the gaming habit right here on the blog I now ponder the always fraught question of what to play next?
