My patient gaming life has changed since I decided to write stuff down as a hobby.

For me I did it as a blog instead of a private log, which I found really helped. Cosplaying as a games journalist, you have to finish the review so you either complete it or you might look up a let's play or walkthrough to get what you need.

That's the key for me, some of them I've been bouncing off or just thinking about playing since the NES days and because I didn't finish them they always stay on the list. But I've finally mentally put them to bed!

I highly recommend it to anyone with a backlog, especially if you are in the market for a new hobby, 2 birds with 1 stone!

I recently played The Dig for the first time, which passed me by when I was younger. I had heard of it I didn't realise it was another Lucas/Spielberg game. I'd just come off a couple of other Lucasarts games and it was quite different.

Looking back it seems quite divisive, I think because it was so different to the comedy Lucasarts adventures, but there's still a lot of love for it floating around the internet, and now I've added to it here if you fancy a long read: https://p7uen.neocities.org/posts/2023-06-23-The-Dig
