I switched to a vertical mouse in an attempt to preempt any potential wrist health issues, but in doing so, I think I've injured my wrist. What am I doing wrong?

November was my month of Hades 2. I still haven't got the epilogue, but I did get the true ending, so I'm counting it as done, even though I'm going to continue playing it. In December I'm hoping to finally get to Expedition 33.

Ok so October was a very busy month. I was very productive. Shipped a few new features for Wheel of Names and made huge backend changes.
That does mean that I didn't finish many games, though. Only one, in fact. BALL x PIT was a great little Breakout-meets-Vampire Survivors game.

In September I played a *lot* of Silksong. But that's not all! I also played Planet of Lana and Granblue Fantasy: Relink.
Going to finish up my sub 30h 100% steel soul run, then move on to Hades 2!

Having completed the true ending of Silksong, I've gotta say that it's an absolute masterpiece. Team Cherry cooked, once again. The wait was so worth it.

August was fun. Only played A Way Out, In Stars and Time, and The Pathless. However, I did go to Gamescom with 4 of my friends!
I went as Kelsier from Mistborn (we'll get a Mistborn game someday), and managed to play 4/8 games that were already on my wishlist before the event.

OK so *technically* I didn't finish any games in July, but I'm so far through Octopath Traveler 2 that I'm gonna count it anyway.
This is all my friends' fault for making me prepare for and then play the Destiny contest raid. Now I've re-uninstalled it and I am free once more.

I've spent all month trying to work my way through Octopath Traveler 2. Now that I'm near the end, they go and announce Octopath Traveler 0. Can we chill for a bit? I need to catch up on all the other great games from the past couple years.

Friends have convinced me to do one last Destiny day-one raid with them. They sherpa'd me through the most recent dungeon today and I got the exotic twice. Bungie really does reserve the best luck for returning players.

June was great. I didn't play many games, but among them were some bangers.
- Nine Sols
- Peace, Death!
- OneShot (and World Machine Edition)
- Tower Wizard
I also completed my first Hollow Knight randomizer run, which was fun.

Why are there so many great-looking games releasing in September? I can't keep up as-is.

Wow, OneShot: World Machine Edition is such an incredible game. Instantly in my top 5 of all time.

On the bright side, at least I have time to play Expedition 33 before Silksong releases.

May went well, relatively speaking, with 6 games completed.
The Room Three
The Room 4: Old Sins
Bastion
Cyberpunk 2077
It Takes Two
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
The next few months will probably be for high priority games that I want to play before Silksong.

April has mostly been a puzzle game month. Boxes, the Room 1 & 2, and most of all, Blue Prince. Also played Haste and Split Fiction to spice it up a bit.
This has also been the month that I moved over to Linux for 90% of my daily computer use, including gaming.

Only finished Assassin's Creed Shadows in March, but I put over 20 hours into Two Point Museum, so I'm counting it as two games. Man, my momentum has completely halted, huh.

Assassin's Creed Shadows is the prettiest game I've ever played, and incredibly impressive from a technological standpoint.
This is the first AC game I've enjoyed playing since Syndicate, and holy shit is it fun (despite some bugs).

Sometimes I get the urge to start a blog, but then I remember that I barely post anything here. What makes me think I would write blog posts? and ones worth reading??

Between work and travel, I only finished 4 games in February, down from 11 last month.
- LEGO Lord of the Rings
- Metal Unit
- Neva
- The Star Named EOS
My backlog is definitely longer now than it was a month ago. Hoping to turn the tide in March.

Apparently wheelofnames.com has over 300 active users on the Playstation 4, but I want to give a special shout out to our one user on the Wii U.

I love Firefox, but I'm starting to get real sick of how long it takes for CSS standards to be implemented. Feels like a bit of a sinking ship now that the Google search deal is dead (?), and I'm sad about it.

I hate it when I see an awesome badass character design, then find out it's from a gacha game. Such a waste...
