Hello you wonderful enchiladas, welcome to the first upload of the new era. This mf is long haha. Way longer than I anticipated but what I like about it is that it feels like a story from beginning to end. Not just an exploration of interesting information, but an actual sequence of events that hopefully keep you interested. I think moving forward, I'd like to do more videos like this. This was... this was fun. And it has me even more jazzed up for the December video.

Let me know what you think! This actually did have a good handful of bloopers and cut content, so look forward to that next week. I hope you like the thumbnail as well, it felt like one of my better ones.

Oh! And please let me know if this convinced you to actually tackle/plan out your own backlog. It definitely helped me, but I'd love to know if it helps you.

Take care everyone, have a delicious weekend, stay warm, and thank you so very much for being here :)

A Misguided Guide To Finishing Your Gaming Backlog

Check out The Ridge Wallet here: https://ridge.com/daryltalksgames for up to 40% off through December 22nd! Thanks again to The Ridge for Sponsoring! Everyone's days on earth are limited. The amount of video games out there, however, are seemingly unlimited. And for those of us that are obsessed with the medium, this causes a bit of a problem. A weird existential dread that comes from a looming video game backlog. How will we ever beat it all? Should we beat it all? And if we were to actually try to do it in a timely manner, how would we? That’s the type of question I approach today and in fact… the very challenge I’ll be taking on in 2023.

Sorry for the late viewing on this! My weekend was a bit chaotic haha. I just have to say I am so excited for this new era of your videos. You still managed to slip some Pysch in there but it was mostly you just being excited about your content and I LOVE that. I also am stupidly excited to see everything you learn or don't learn next November. Definitely going to try and make a list, mostly just to have an idea of all the games I have/want to play. There have been so many times where I finish a game, or don't want to continue any of my replays and I'm like "Hmm what do I play next?!" and then can't remember what's all on my list haha. Now I just gotta figure out a system to tackle both the gaming backlog and revising my novel. Struggles xD All in all, EXCELLENT video yet again, Daryl and I cannot wait for more :)

This feels like an appropriate video to get a special thanks on knowing how big my game backlog is, lol. Considering joining you on the journey and I'll see where my backlog is in a year's time.
