Reflection
- £1.60 per hour for my main hobby aint too bad
- Was only just over the budget I set
- I have bought way too many games that I’ve not played
- Some games I only bought to complete a collection (doom/fallout etc)
- A few games i bought because they were getting delisted. Crazy taxi, forza horizon 4 steam, mega drive collection
- I’ve also double dipped on games I’ve bought previously on other platforms or ones on subscriptions
- Ive actually only spent more than a hour on 10 games I’ve bought this year (rest of playtime was ps plus/game pass/ea play)
Bit of an eye opener on how much money I’ve wasted tbh. Will try and cut my number of games bought next year as won’t have as much time to play anyway.
