dtgreene: Why does that make you happy?
It's more of a relief rather happiness.
I recently uninstalled hundreds of GBs of games in my SSD. Part of my digital decluttering. Some was there are finished but I was suppose to chase the stupid100% achievements but haven't. Some are halfway completed or just barely started. As I deleted them one by one I can recall the basic of their specific gameplay, at what point of the game I was and what the stories were up to. Or where I get them or if it was from a GOG forum user giveaway who gave it to me. But I felt I'm no longer care to play them at this point of my life. It felt fresher afterwards to see my desktop with no more games shortcuts in them.
From the financial perspective, I see no future path in me upgrading my aging PC in the near future. As for the games itself I can longer push myself to grift, scour, and enter every single giveaway just to get a shiny new toy. Reducing my fate to random number draws is excruciating for me nowadays let alone asking in the gifting thread. If you can't afford a hobby then I think it was not meant for me anyway.
It's a full circle perhaps. GOG and the forum users here was the one bringing me back into gaming after some blank period between 2007-2016. But after the starred raffle was introduced in the Community Giveaway I find myself posting here less and less let alone posting. Only when I redeemed my GOG code from my own Prime subscription (cost me around $1, I can still afford that much :D) like now that I'm logged in here. But only for adding stuff to my library for them to collect digital dust. I guess I can say that I'm done with PC Gaming. At least for now. And I feel alright with it.
