know it's bad when I look at this thread and can only think of 4 games i've actually completed this year,I got a new computer recently and have a massive amount of games on steam now so might aswell make a post here,I won't get anywhere near 52 but maybe it'll help me play a few more games
Game 1: XCOM: Enemy Unknown
randomly played this a few months ago and was surprised by how fun it was,wasn't really expecting a ton going in but stayed up all night playing it and was right back at it the next day. will probably play it again with the expansion at some point
Game 2: Alpha Protocol
another game I started playing on an impulse and ended up playing through to the end,probably helped that it was pretty short. It definitely has some flaws but overall it was pretty enjoyable
Game 3: The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky
I got swept up in the hype for this reading the steam thread on here and it was pretty cheap so I ended up just jumping in on day 1. I liked this game but at the same time didn't really understand why,the combat was good but not great,the story was extremely slow,I didn't really care all that much about most of the characters,the music was good but mostly forgettable etc. the worldbuilding was really the only really strength I see if I break it down like that but it managed to be enjoyable all the same,the story did pick up a bit later on and i'm looking forward to the second one which from what i've heard is supposed to be more eventful
Game 4: The Witcher: Enhanced Edition Director's Cut
the combat was a bit weird and not so good(although I didn't think it was awful or anything like that) and the sheer amount of running around vezima for quests just plain wore me out at times but overall it was a great gamee with some very enjoyable moments and a surprisingly engaging story. the second one is supposed to be a lot tighter on the running around etc from what i've heard so i'll probably like that one even more(will probably be a while before I really play that one though since unfortunately I can't get any kind of windowed mode at all to work on it let alone borderless and it's hard for me to bring myself to play games on fullscreen,i'm also mildly annoyed at the isometric view being ditched which is what I would prefer to use and what I used to play the first game but i'll probably get over that easily enough once I play it for a while)
