In the past year or so, I've sometimes gone months at a time without gaming. Sometimes, I'd pick one up and play it for a bit, but I didn't really push myself. Whenever I got to the boring bits, I'd just switch to another one.
Now, I find myself really looking forward to playing my games. I'm making plans, like selecting my Final Fantasy I team with dice, for the challenge, or completeing the Shadow Hearts series by going Koudelka -> Shadow Hearts (Bad Ending) -> Shadow Hearts 2 (Death Ending) -> Shadow Hearts (Good Ending) -> Shadow Hearts 3. I'm looking forward to it so much that I'm almost tempted to just give up on the whole thing, and skip ahead.
That would be defeating the point, of course. It's fun because I'm slogging through, and completing them all properly, and taking the time to appreciate each one. It's the sense of satisfaction, more than anything.
So I'll be getting on with Breath of Fire, then.
