Since 2014 I've been documenting every time I play a game and what I thought about it during that session. You can see all the previous lists here.
A session can be anywhere from a few minutes to many hours. Sessions that last longer than one block of time (illustrated below) are counted for each block individually. Sessions that cross over a block (like from 2:30 to 4) count towards the one that more time was spent in.
This will be unedited and likely full of typos and misspellings. The descriptions of my sessions may include story spoilers. Any spoilers will NOT be marked.
Here's the break down of the time of day:
| Time | Term | Time | Term |

| 3am to 6am | Early Morning | 3pm to 6pm | Early Evening |

Played: 1/1. Evening. PC Steam. Enjoyed. ~~~ Played: 1/1. Late Evening. Continued our playthrough from last year. We're still early in Day 2. ~~~ Played: 1/23. Evening. ~~~ Played: 1/23. Late Evening. We found out about the 8th Hardie boy and mostly just talked with them. Also got some sweet shades for cool dude who do drugs. ~~~ Played: 2/14. Early Evening. We gave the body to Kim and explored the Doom Commercial Area. ~~~ Played: 2/18. Evening. ~~~ Played: 2/18. Late Evening. We explored the apartments mostly. ~~~ Played: 3/7. Late Evening. We finished up Day 2. ~~~ Played: 3/19. Evening. ~~~ Played: 3/19. Late Evening. Did everything involving Kalessje and the Hardie Boys. We chose to arrest her. ~~~ Played: 3/25. Evening. We started to explore the coast. ~~~ Played: 4/10. Late Evening. We talked to the cryptozooligists. Apparently you can't do the dead boardwalk guy without Kim and that's unfortunate. Ah well... ~~~ Played: 4/13. Late Evening. We did most of the church stuff. ~~~ Played: 4/16. Late Evening. We're still on day 3 doing as much as we can. Just finished up the Cryptozooligists and are going to go finish up the church. ~~~ Played: 4/30. Late Evening. ~~~ Played: 6/8. Late Evening. ~~~ Played: 6/11. Evening. ~~~ Played: 7/10. Late Evening. ~~~ Played: 7/11. Midnight. We're off to see Ruby. ~~~ Played: 8/3. Late Evening. We scurried passed the tribunal since it did not go well. ~~~ Finished: 8/23. Late Evening. Finally finished up our second run. ~~~
Played: 1/2. Late Morning. PC Itch. Enjoyed. ~~~ Played: 1/2. Afternoon. Continuing my playthrough from last year. Got through the Cave of Life and some other side quest stuff. Now all the characters have their upgraded classes. ~~~ Played: 1/3. Early Evening. ~~~ Played: 1/3. Late Evening. In the Holy Land now and I think the last few areas haven't been as good as the early parts of the game. I'm basically maxed out on my equipment and skills but they just keep presenting me with more items to enhance that stuff (except that danged blessed dust!). I'm suspecting this game was balanced around it's harder difficulties because I'm having a breeze on normal right now. It's not even a thing. ~~~ Played: 1/4. Early Evening. In the final area. I missed the 3rd bounty, but I'm not that interested in going back a looking for it. Sometimes the writing in this game could have really used an editor. There's a lot of lines that just draw stuff out. ~~~ Finished: 1/6. Early Evening. Finished up this game. It's was OK. Good enough to hold my interest but not especially amazing. It has a lot of good ideas that didn't all quite come together in the end. ~~~
Started: 1/7. Evening. PC Emulator. Enjoyed. So This is actually the Career Day randomizer hack. It's really cool, but I don't quite get it. It uses the SNES version and I'm so used to the small QOL stuff in the GBA version. It is pretty wild so far. I set it up so all the shops are free and added some randomized weapons. ~~~ Played: 1/7. Evening. I found a lot of jobs I've used but not a lot of armor for them in World 1. I did pretty much all I could dungeon-wise in World 1 before realizing I could teleport to World 2 at any point and get access to more shops. I think I should probably have done this with the 4 job mode, but it's cool. I'm really enjoying it. ~~~ Played: 1/8. Early Evening. ~~~ Played: 1/8. Late Evening. Got to World 3. Not really sure where to go, but I have two of the 4 tablets. ~~~ Played: 1/9. Early Evening. I feel like I've checked everything I can except the Void. I guess its time to jump in there. ~~~ Played: 1/9. Evening. ~~~ Finished: 1/9. Late Evening. I had to check the spoiler log. The last two tablets were at Odin and, of all places, the Antlion location. ~~~ Started: 1/10. Midnight. I may have started a new run. Already about 2 hours in and two tablets down. ~~~ Played: 1/10. Afternoon. ~~~ Abandoned: 1/10. Early Evening. This seed had a really rude thing set on another flag I didn't know exist and I spent a long time in areas that were not necessary. Ah well. I had a good team too. My next seed is going to be with the normal racing rules. ~~~ Started: 1/11. Midnight. Started and then restarted a handful of race seeds. These are already a lot tougher since the shop isn't free. I got screwed by pretty much all of them, but I think I'll stay on my current one. Also I thought you needed the Canal Key to do the ship graveyard, but apparently you don't. I also have some trouble getting the tracker to work. Had to add it as a legit file in my virus protection. ~~~ Played: 1/16. Early Evening. ~~~ Played: 1/16. Evening. ~~~ Played: 1/16. Late Evening. ~~~ Played: 1/17. Midnight. Hot Tip: Don't accidentally open the Shinryu box because "yay! Treasure!" after doing most of the void without saving. ~~~ Finished: 1/17. Afternoon. Beat this run! Took about 4 and half hours and some save stating, but I was able to complete it. I had some good stuff going at the end with X-magic Bahumat then Mimic. Mixing to boost levels then Gil Toss. Made for a pretty easy Ted/Ned fight. I was pretty resources slim though. ~~~ Started: 1/20. Evening. ~~~ Played: 1/20. Late Evening. Played about two hours into the seed of the week and it was rude. I don't think I'll finish this one since it's got jobs that I'm just not familiar with. ~~~

Early Evening. ~~~ Played: 1/28. Midnight. ~~~ Played: 1/30. Afternoon. Tried the daily and got destroyed by the act 3 boss. ~~~ Played: 1/30. Early Evening. I BEAT THE DANG HEART!!! with the Ironclad using a block and anger/rage focused deck. ~~~ Played: 2/2. Evening. ~~~ Played: 2/15. Late Evening. ~~~ Played: 2/16. Evening. ~~~ Played: 2/20. Evening.

Started: 1/30. Evening. PC Steam. Enjoyed. So this game is one part SMT/pokemon styled jRPG and one part metroidvania. It seems pretty cool so far. Reminds me of a DS game that had a similar concept minus the turn based combat. I love my blob called Robert The Slim due to character limitations. ~~~ Played: 1/31. Late Morning. ~~~ Played: 1/31. Afternoon. Beat the blue caves area and got double jump, but lost against the other trainer guy. He just had so much DOT. ~~~ Played: 1/31. Afternoon. ~~~ Played: 1/31. Early Evening. Part of me feels like I should be grinding more, but maybe that's just my natural RPG tendencies. ~~~ Played: 1/31. Late Evening. Looks like the evolution stuff in this game requires looking stuff up if you don't want to try to figure it out on your own. That kinda sucks. ~~~ Played: 2/6. Evening. ~~~ Played: 2/6. Late Evening. Exploring the snowy area. Some of the platforming in this game is rude in a way that it shouldn't be. There was a vertical hallway with a Mega Man styled blind fall with a bunch of spikes on the walls in the sewer and that sucks. The combat is really cool though. I really like the battle system a lot. ~~~ Played: 2/7. Late Morning. ~~~ Played: 2/7. Afternoon. ~~~ Played: 2/7. Early Evening. ~~~ Played: 2/7. Late Evening. ~~~ Played: 2/13. Late Morning. ~~~ Played: 2/13. Afternoon. ~~~ Played: 2/13. Early Evening. ~~~ Played: 2/14. Late Morning. ~~~ Played: 2/14. Evening. ~~~
Started: 2/5. Evening. PC Steam. Enjoyed. ~~~ Played: 2/5. Late Evening. For some reason I thought this game would be much less technical than it is. Something more like Code Vein. But that's not the case. There's so much and it's quite overwhelming, but I spent a good hour in the character creator and am poking around the first area. It seems cool. I don't know how much I'll play, but I'm liking what I played so far. ~~~
Started: 3/21. Evening. PC Steam. Enjoyed. ~~~ Played: 3/21. Late Evening. Lots of folks were talking about this game and it's alright. It doesn't explain itself but I was able to figure out most of it well enough to beat the first act. ~~~ Played: 3/27. Afternoon. ~~~ Played: 3/27. Early Evening. Unlocked the Nercomancer and they seem like way better than the other two jobs. Way more interesting anyway. ~~~ Played: 3/27. Early Evening. ~~~ Played: 3/27. Evening. ~~~ Played: 3/27. Late Evening. ~~~ Played: 3/28. Midnight. I think I might be done with this game. The main loop is not really very interesting. ~~~ Played: 3/28. Afternoon. Tried a bit as the Rogue and it was OK. I don't know. I was just bored. I did unlock crafting and junk, but the trickle of new mechanics is tooooooo sloooooooow. ~~~
Started: 3/28. Early Evening. PC Emulator (GBA). Enjoyed. I was watching a lot of FF4 Free Enterprise rando streams and decided to play through it. I don't know why but I chose the GBA version. It's awkward. Especially compared to the FFV GBA version which is great. ~~~ Played: 3/28. Evening. Played up til Paladin Cecil. ~~~ Played: 3/29. Evening. Played up to getting into Baron. ~~~ Played: 3/30. Evening. Playing a tiny bit at a time. Just got the Enterprise. ~~~ Played: 4/2. Evening. ~~~ Played: 4/2. Late Evening. ~~~ Played: 4/3. Early Evening. Got up to where I have Edge now and basically the final party. I know that Kain leaves at some point and I'll get FuSoYa briefly, but whatever. ~~~ Played: 4/4. Late Morning. Back in the underworld. ~~~ Played: 4/4. Evening. ~~~ Played: 4/17. Late Evening. I think I don't like this game actually haha. ~~~ Played: 4/27. Late Evening. Ok. I went back to this and did the two underground dungeons. I still need to go and smack yang with the frying pan. Then make the Excalibur. Then raise the whale. I'm about 15 hours into it and like, wow, this game is short and that's good. ~~~ Played: 4/30. Midnight. Now in the Giant of Babel after doing all the stuff on the moon. Wasn't able to heal beforehand so that's great. Guess I should have read ahead. Ah well. ~~~ Played: 5/5. Midnight. ~~~
Played: 4/14. Evening. PC Steam. Enjoyed. Heard about this game on the Waypoint podcast. Seems cool so far. The UI graphics could use some work though. ~~~ Played: 4/14. Late Evening. Ok I beat it on easy and ooooh man that final battle came down to the wire. I was just barely able to beat the monster. This game is cool, but it's very complex. A bit more complex than what I am typically looking for from a game like this. It's good though. I don't think it will replace StS as my "I just want to focus on something while I listen to a podcast" game though. ~~~ Played: 4/17. Late Evening. Did the water gem quest on easy. Easy is probably a bit too easy for me as I'm not having much trouble at all, but it's been good to learn the mechanics and terms of the game. ~~~
Played: 4/20. Late Evening. PC Itch. Enjoyed. ~~~ Played: 4/21. Midnight. Was looking for something to get back into and didn't want to start something new. Gosh I love this game. I didn't beat any of my high scores but that feeling of intense focus was there and wonderful. ~~~ Played: 4/21. Early Evening. Played some new songs I found in the community. They were very good. ~~~ Played: 4/21. Late Evening. ~~~ Played: 4/22. Midnight. I got so close to unlocking Impossible mode by getting 3,998,669 points of the 4million that I needed!! I love this game. ~~~ Played: 4/22. Early Morning. ~~~ Played: 4/22. Afternoon. New Endless high score!! ~~~ Played: 4/22. Early Evening. ~~~ Played: 4/23. Midnight. ~~~ Played: 4/23.
