personal, video game stores & such
I've decided I don't want any more games in my steam account. There's too many already, and I'm not comfy with the DRM.
So, I have gone through my steam wishlist, and added everything I can (and still at least somewhat want) to my GOG wishlist.
This gives me a baseline of a place to get a game DRM free.
I'm also going to make an effort to get stuff from itch more.

I've also put my monthly humble subscription on indefinite pause. I started itn to try and reduce impulse spending on steam sales, and it worked!
But looking back at the past year, I've played almost none of the dozens of games I've gotten out of it. I would have been better off just... spending the money on a game I was actually going to play.

This month especially: there are 2 games that I would want, and the bundle is cheaper than buying those two games just on their own....
But I don't want any of the extra games. And I don't think I would actually play either of those games this month, so... what's the point in paying for them?
re: personal, video game stores & such
My new year's resolution was to play 6 games to their end this year.
I'm going to see if I can do it. I've finished 2 games so far this year, which means I have to finish 2 games in November and 2 in December.
I'm currently playing Pseudoregalia, which I know is relatively short.

Also, I think I've touched on this before, but like.
The humble monthly choice subscription used to have a to exist. There would be 10 games each month, but you only got to choose 3 of them.
Which is much more reasonable - you chose the games which looked interesting, and the choice made you feel more invested in the games you got.
Now it's just... Every month they give you 8 games. You don't choose anything.
