Pile of Shame

Besides the completed games I also buy some games which I didn't start until now.
I only buy games which I think I really play and not only because I have the previous title or something.
Over time the stack grows as I'm unable to catch up with the new released games I'm interested in.

Current Stack

The following games are currently not finished or even started.
I've also added an estimated time to complete. To determine this I used the howlongtobeat.com site and look for something between "Main + Extra" and the "Completionist" record ((comp - m/e) / 2 + m/e) as max playtime because, as I mentioned before, I'm a "slow" player.

I'm also not a great fan of preorder games because the past has shown that quite a lot of games are in Beta state when they were released and I don't want to waste the little free time with bugs, crashes or only a marketing story, so sometimes it's better (also for the price) to wait a little bit. On the other hand, there are games which I need to buy anyway because I'm a Fanboy (Bethesda Games) or I'm convinced that the game is great like PC ports of successful console games.

Wishlist

These games are still on my wishlist and maybe some day...
Some games aren't released yet, but for others, I didn't see a time slot for playing them at the moment.
The order is not random, they are in descending order of my interest.

  1. Dragon Age: The Veilguard
  2. Assassin's Creed Shadows
  3. Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl
  4. Diablo 4
  5. Doom Eternal
  6. The Day Beforekind of epic fail
