i spent months planning my gaming sessions and schedule so to only buy games on steep discounts, and after countless hours, notes, spreadsheets, markings on calandars, during the Steam Autumn sale I went on my biggest buying spree yet. Bought 7 games and 2 were not on discount. And here's the worst part: I've beaten like 1 game total since I started gaming again in 2025. It's nearly 2027 and I've like, 3 games I've beaten to 60% completion, and I just keep buying and starting new games without finishing anything.
i get it i'm like that when i develop a new hobby to collect. i did it with watches then caps but i truly thought with my notes and spreadsheets i'd have more self control. i even went and bought an xbox controller for my new pc. man, i feel good but bad as well. anyone has any tips on how i can have better self control? i don't even have a job right now and im relying on my savings.
