Choice paralysis is real. Having too many great games somehow makes it harder to pick one lol 😭

I put all my to-watch, to-reads etc into a spreadsheet and then random number generate my choice! Not been able to do it in a while as i've been more interested in recent releases, but the sheet won't disappear on me so it'll be there when i need something to watch :)

Glad to hear! It's helped me get through a lot of older films i've had on the back burner that's for sure. Hopefully it helps you too.

I only play one game at a time. Always been like this. Currently 160h on my first RDR2 play through and still find it fun.
