Alright, there's not six months between my #BeatTheBacklog updates.
This time, the StarCraft II Nova Covert Ops DLC pack.
It's a much smaller scale story than the much grander trilogy of the main game, but was still gripping throughout.
Hope this universe is revisited someday.

I'm about halfway done with Black Mesa, the first game in my effort to #BeatTheBacklog.
It's a fantastic game, and I'm looking forward to revisiting Half-Life 2 after about 15ish years.
But when the marines start to strafe, man I can't hit a damn thing.

As if #BeatTheBacklog wasn't going to take long enough. Tonight, my brain was like, "Hey, know what you haven't tried in a few years? A modded survival run of Skyrim!"

In an effort to curb spending on non-essentials for the rest of the year and into 2025, I'm aiming to #BeatTheBacklog, going through many of the games that I got for stupidly low prices during Steam sales, but have never made the time for.
First up: Black Mesa, the fan remake of Half-Life 1.

The latest checkmark on my #BeatTheBacklog campaign.
I got New Pokemon Snap back at launch in 2021, and for some reason, it got away from me pretty quickly, even though wildlife photography is one of my novice hobbies.
I'm surprised at just how much content is in this game.

My first #BeatTheBacklog game, Black Mesa, is done.
Never played the original Half-Life. I figured if I ever made the time to do so, then the plot of HL2 would make a little more sense.
I was mistaken.
And Xen really overstayed its welcome. I know it was the weak point, but that was overkill.

I finally read Steve Cavanagh's Th1rt3en.
Crime/Courtroom thriller, Absorbing. Fast paced, with lots of "oh my".
Not quite edge of the seat for me, but was still a great read.

I'm dusting off the old handhelds as well. Never beat this when I got it nearly a decade ago.

Still never played any Life Is Strange. Thinking about getting stuck in but there are 5 games now?! Wondering if it's worth it... Maybe I'll just commit to the first one and see what happens #gamersky #beatthebacklog

Been quite awhile since I had to use my #BeatTheBacklog tag, since it's been quite awhile since I last played something in my backlog.
#PokemonX complete. Pokemon League beaten with Delphox, Pidgeot, Lucario, Raichu, Blastoise, and Xerneas.
Then capped Mewtwo for nostalgia.

Not a whole lot of writing done tonight, but I got a much more succinct outline done for my next #FreedomPlanet story, and more progress in Black Mesa as I continue to #BeatTheBacklog.
