My backlog is on hold due to unfortunate health circumstances. I sure hope I get better soon! laugh track
My writing quality has also declined as a result. I plan on updating reviews later on.
I'm mainly focusing on games that I wouldn't normally have the time or interest to play in the meantime (primarily titles with an 85+ metacritic or OpenCritic score that weren't on my radar). That's not to suggest that I value the opinions of game journalists or that they're good at their job (Iol). I've found that Backlogd scores are much more in line with reality.
Games that have a better version lose half a star.

Where's the gameplay? At least with an idle game like Cookie Clicker I don't have to spend as much time actively playing.
I blame Rogue Legacy for popularizing the grindy dopamine treadmill subgenre of roguelikes.

A by-the-numbers FPS. Revolutionary or not, it's still very bland.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare has the same problems plaguing this type of game; the combat feels passive, the level design is soul-crushingly linear/restricted, and there's little to no variety in the enemies or mission objectives.

Enjoy your $30 limited edition SNES ROM.
It was a dick move not to put this on the virtual console.
