    I went to one of those card-cover sites that you can get customer vinyl stickers for your credit/debit cards and customized these for mine (the blank part is the chip location):

    We got nailed by a snowstorm all weekend. Parts of the province are in a state of emergency. We only got about a 1-2 feet here but the winds were crazy.
     
    So I spent the weekend playing Palworld.

    Welcome to Video Games Finished in 2024! 
     
    NEW RULE - If you want to be on the "leaderboard" you gotta have either a post you edit regularly -OR- put your "Total Finished" with updated total after each "finished" post.
     
    New year, new thread! 
     
    We've been here before, but if you haven't? This is easy peasy. You keep a running tally of the video games you beat over the course of 2023, and post your completions in the thread! Feel free to join us, whether you're new or old. Let's see if we can top our collective tally of 254 video games beaten in 2022 this year! 
     
    GAMES BEATEN:
    When you beat a game, post the name and the system. That’s it. 
    We are going by the honor system here. Line them up and knock them down, and let us know when you've finished one!  
    Want to review your game? Go for it! It's by no means a requirement, but you can let us know how much you enjoyed- or didn't enjoy a game in this thread. Want to share a picture proving you beat a game? Go for it! It's not a requirement, but shots of the "The End!" or the credits are always welcome. 
     
    If you want a way to keep track of your backlog, go to backloggery. 
     
    RULES:
    1) Make a new post when you beat a game, so I can easily see it and count it. The game and system you beat it on is all you have to post. However, having either your first post be a master post or keeping a running total on each new post helps me double check and make sure scores are accurate and is now also mandatory for leaderboard.
    2) No emulators unless you actually own the game (or otherwise stated).  
    3) You may finish a game you started playing in a prior year and count it. That's fine. In fact, I expect several users will beat games in January that the started playing last year. All I ask is that you don't open up a save file from years ago that is right before the final boss, beat it, and then claim beat the game. That's just goes against the spirit of the thread.
    4) You can however, feel free to go back to a game you haven't played for year(s), start from the beginning and beat it and count it. That's fine. It is OK to beat the same game multiple years in a row. 
    5) Beating a game multiple times in the same year will only count once. This includes the same game on different consoles and remasters. Consideration is offered to DLC campaigns and remakes. 
    6) There is no Rule 6. 
    7) Digital downloads count for the system you played it on, physical copies count for the system they were made for. 
    8) Mobile games in the nature of gatcha, slight story, etc such as; Fire Emblem: Heroes, Puzzle & Dragons, Star Wars: Heroes, etc, can all be considered complete after beating all stages. For example, every story mode and paralogue stage in FE:H, all normal stages in P&D, all light, dark, cantina, and mod battles in SW, etc. These requirements can change if more story missions or stages are added. Just finish the levels available to you. I won't hold it against you if you claim a gatcha game as beaten and more levels are added later. Of course, if this happens, you can't claim to beat the game a second time in the same year. 
    9) Fanmade games and ROM hacks count as long as: a) significantly different than base game; b) not a walking a sim; c) you distinguish if it was fanmade or a ROM hack and what it was based on (this is just more a curiousity thing); d) you are limited to 10 per year
     
    Categories:
    1) Console – Switch, Xbox Series X, PS5, Switch eShop, PSN, Magnavox Odyssey², etc.
    2) Handheld – 3DS, DS, Vita, PSP, GBC, 3DS eShop, PSN, Evercade, Game Gear, etc.
    3) PC – PC and Steam Box
    4) Mobile – Phone and Tablet games. 
    5) Overall – Add up all categories above to get a total
     
    NOTE: Since some PSN games have cross save functionality, you pick whether you beat it on PS4/PS3/PSV (if applicable).
    NOTE: Physical copies of games count for their original system, digital copies of games count for the system you beat them on. You might remember this as Rule 7! This is true of emulators as well- if you own a physical copy of the game, it counts for the original system.

    So my brother was telling his girlfriend how I used to casually play through this and beat it in like 30 minutes, buuuut that's speedrunner times. Not mine. So I thought I'd see roughly how long my own time was:

    2024 goals, hmmm...
     
    Get in slightly better shape. Getting a bit of a pot belly, and want a little more bulk in the better places.
    Be less lazy? That'll be tough because it's SO easy! Basically just trying to get chores done sooner than later.
    Speaking of, decide on a cosplay and start it much further in advance than usual. Current front-runner is Damian/Tim Robin w/staff. Trying to not do a Zelda one.
    Try a "device-free evening" with the wife once a week. No TV, no phones, no gaming. Music allowed, but not through headphones. Meant to be more 1-on-1, present, time. Cards, tabletops, reading, crafting together, what have you. Coming up on 21 years together this year!
    Get my raven or Wolf Link tattoo (half back each) would be nice.
    Not sure what games I'm looking forward to as I've basically forgotten what they all were lol
    Try DnD or similar TTRPG

    I mean, I get it. But they should allot the time better. Tell them they get 30 seconds and to prepare accordingly, but give them 45 seconds to account for stuttering/brainfreeze/etc., and do NOT count translations against this allotment.
