It's time for the annual shuffle. I'm once again updating my Should Play and Should Finish lists with an eye towards knocking off more games from my backlog (or more like trying to keep the backlog from growing as much as it would otherwise).
And yeah, I already did my first purchase of the year since The Centennial Case: A Shijima Story was on sale and finally hit the required price point.
Should Play:
Unpacking
Collar x Malice Unlimited
Process of Elimination
Baten Kaitos I HD Remaster
Should Finish:
Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City
Joe Dever's Lone Wolf
Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town
Cupid Parasite
Undernauts: Labyrinth of Yomi
Not Yet Bought:
Paranormasight: The Seven Mysteries of Honjo - Wishlist item until cheap "enough"
Virche Evermore - Probably gonna wait for a sale
even if Tempest: Dawning Connections - Probably going to wait for a sale
Persona 3 Reload - Pre-ordered
Tengoku Struggle: Strayside
Steam Prison Beyond the Steam - Might be a sale purchase
TDB Steam game
Added to Backlog:
The Centennial Case: A Shijima Story - Price hit $20
For 2024, I'm going to fill out the open spots on the Should Play list with Unpacking (Christmas gift), Collar x Malice Unlimited (because I've accumulated way too many otome sequel/fan disks without playing any of them), and Process of Elimination (obligatory mystery game). I actually could replace CxMU with the sequel/FDs to Piofiore, Amnesia, or Norn9 since I own all of them and I just want to get all these spin-offs played and out of the way. CxMU is just the oldest and the one I likely would have played a few years ago if I hadn't gone into surgery for my first cancer the month it came out. I'm also going to swap Radiant Historia for Baten Kaitos I HD Remaster. I still want to get to RH, but BK is one of my all time favorites and I've really been wanting to revisit it (especially now that I don't have to deal with the awful English dub).
I'm mostly fine with leaving my Should Finish list as-is, particularly Cupid Parasite, since the fan disk is coming out next year and I need to decide whether I want to spring for it. For the free spot I'm going to slot in Undernauts: Labyrinth of Yomi since I started it a while ago knowing that I wasn't ready to play it yet, but I wanted to go ahead and create my party so I'd be ready to go immediately once I was ready for a good dungeon crawl.
