New Year’s Resolution: Finally Clear My Steam Backlog… Oh Wow, Sea of Thieves Is Half Off

ATLANTA – The page has turned on the calendar and my wife has made it her New Year’s resolution to clean the house. Me? I’m going to do some house cleaning of my own, as my New Year’s resolution is to finally clear my steam backlog…oh wow, Sea of Thieves is half off!

I haven’t played Sea of Thieves since my PC Game Pass free trial – it would be nice to get back into that after playing first-person shooters all the time. $19.99 is a hell of a deal, but I’ve had Bioshock 2 Remastered, Bioshock Infinite, and Batman: Arkham City GOTY Edition all sitting there in my Steam library, so I should prob…oh holy shit that Humble Bundle GOG RPG bundle is fire.

Twelve bucks for seven games and that includes Kingdom Come: Deliverance and Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales? That’s hours upon hours of incredible gaming I can grab right now for nearly free.

No, no, I still need to plow through my Steam library. Never finished Sunset Overdrive and Sleeping Dogs and I really need to restart Stardew Valley now that I know the most efficient crop planting strategy.

You don’t want to do that Dan. The Fanatical Winter Mystery Bundle has 20 mystery keys for $13.49. We’re bound to find one worthwhile game in there.

NO! Shut up! I’ve had Tales from the Borderlands and The Walking Dead Seasons 1 and 2 since 2014 and I haven’t touched them yet! Let me get through what I already own before I spend more money!

Today’s free game in the Epic store is Ghostrunner, Dan.

Ha!I already got that in my April 2022 Humble Choice. I haven’t played that, either!

Outer Worlds on both Epic and Steam. Disco Elysium…my friend won’t shut up about it and I got that in my August Humble Choice. Prison Architect. Party Hard and Party Hard 2. I never finished Deathloop and that’s really good – don’t know why I stopped. Probably because I went back to Fortnite…still need to get to Level 70 in this season’s Battle Pass so I can get the buff Peter Griffin skin.

Dead Island. Control Ultimate Edition. Graveyard Keeper. Void Bastards…all just…sitting there. Waiting for me to return. Waiting for me to return from this spiral, this insanity.

Alan Wake 2 is discounted 20% right now and everyone says it’s ♬ phe-nom-e-nal! ♬

You’re the Devil! You’re MY American Nightmare! I couldn’t even finish Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus because my PC bogged down near the end when too many enemies were on the screen. I have a new PC now, but what salvation has that provided? Has it relieved me of this pain?

I can relieve your pain, Dan. GOG is offering South of the Circle for free. Green Man Gaming has Hogwarts Legacy for $25.50. Have you heard of the website IsThereAnyDeal? Our backlog will always be there for us. Time to find something new.

I WILL NOT SUCCUMB TO TEMPTATION! GET…OUT…OF…MY…HEAD! I PRAY TO MY LORD AND SAVIOR JES…Aw snap, The Finals is out of beta?
