Today’s game is Halo CE (Sorry to people who like to guess the game. This one is a bit of a trick). This is in fact not Ocarina of Time, this is me and my friend playing a Halo CE map that looks like Ocarina Of Time we found on the steam workshop. The controls were a bit glitchy (kept forcing me to target him), and I drove a horse into a ditch trying to run him over (said horse also didn’t have animations so it was just rolling). But besides that it was a lot of fun. I completely kicked my friend’s ass with my OoT knowledge.
Me and him have also been doing a modded OoT multiplier run after I started my original one. So I may end up sharing a screenshot from that tomorrow if we play then.
not to psychoanalise someone’s accidental journal/art project but perhaps the daily showcase of what they’re doing is pushing them to add more variety to their game choices?
I sure know if I were to decide to post a screenshot a day I probably would have more varied game choices than normal. Even if it’s a funny thing you do online the mere act of showing it to others adds a layer of performance, and it’d be a very boring performance to show myself playing picross touch or sudokucube 7 days in a row
Could be that for sure - like I game a bit every day, but if I was doing this same project, all of my screenshots from the past three weeks would have been from Crash Bandicoot 4 - and the three weeks before that would all be from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2. I basically just beat a level a day. If other people were chiming in every day maybe I’d mix it up.
It could also be self-selection bias - like, I would never do a project like this because I know it would be super repetitive. Maybe they were willing to do it because they already played a hyper-varied selection?
I’m just trying to find something that sticks with my schedule right now. I recently became really busy last August, so outside of multiplayer games it’s hard to find a Game that really sticks with my schedule. So I bounce around a lot looking for something.
Some of them are multiplayer that I only really play with friends (Halo, Zomboid, etc). Other than that I just had a large backlog of games I was working on, but now I’m trying to find a single player game that fits with my schedule so I’m bouncing around until I find something that sticks

You have more variety in the games you play than I have in the foods I eat
How many of these 54 have been unique? What are you doing that you play a different game almost every day?
