I am SO sorry for NOT editing out the coughs 😂😂Thats completely my bad. 😅😅
Last year, all I asked for mother’s day was to get to play Tears of the Kingdom without guilt for taking the time. My toddlers played, my five-year-old help me play, and my husband was in charge of meals for the day. It was the best Mother's Day I've ever had! No judgment on gaming!
Oh my god that's amazing. Im glad you got to do that! I can imagine it isnt easy to get time to yourself to a game a bit.
I have A5 journals for gaming. I write my backstories of my characters so I know how they’d react in any given situation. I write down recipes I need to make. I love it.
Ohhh i really like this idea! What kind of games do you normally play? Also, This sounds like a really good way to track characters for something like DnD.
Your voice is really calming
I have a whole A5 ring binder just for Baldurs lmao
Also completely wiht you on the SDV sentiment ;u;
I would love to see this! What do you keep track of and what's it look like!
THATS SO COOL! I would loveee to see how you track stuff for Baldurs. I feel like it would be like a DnD book pretty much haha. Got my wheels turning right now about what I could track for it.
@@ThatJournalingGuy ill send you some pics of it on insta, but yeah exactly like a DnD sheet :')
I mainly write down what items i need for my builds and where (armour and weapons) everything else like scrolls and spells for AoE / damage i have written down under the class spell list, but i have it all memorised now anyway loool
This is awesome! You made the Hobonichi A6 look like the perfect size for a journal surrounding a specific topic. I’d love to see a flip through once it’s complete (no matter how long that takes haha). I love getting sucked into a world when casual gaming and it makes sense to want to write document it. Kind of like how people use daily log / memory keeper for real life experiences. Dang, you got my gears turning.. thanks for sharing!
I absolutely would love to do a flipthrough when it's done. Hoping to finish it up by the end of this year so ill keep it in mind that you want to see it!
Awesome, been wanting to do something like this for a long time.
I wasn’t a big gamer but my cousin put me on Golden Eye and my mom bought me a nintendo64 and golden eye and it was def a vibe. I wish I could play it now w my daughters
Honestly, I just went out and bought an N64 for that very reason. To make sure my kids get a chance to play it too haha. The pause menu song in Goldeneye though? a vibeeeeeee
OMG i happened to come across this vid right when I was wondering what to do with my A6 day free hobonichi. I thought I was going to use it for my foreign language studies, but I love this idea more! I'm also a gamer and I can see tracking all my gaming; even my stardew valley runs. Even track my Sims 4 legency .. maybe print out lil pics... Thank you so much for the inspiration ! 😊
theyre both great idea to be honest haha. Because im actually using a hobonichi hon for my language studies! Im making a video on it now lol. Also, Ive seen some people track their stardew runs, relatinoships, and crop calendars in a journal like this and it looks so so cool. I kind of want to do it too.
The Long Dark would be a good game to journal.
Oh! noted. That's the one that's like in the snow and it's a survival game right? What makes it a good game to journal about?
Thank you for video games journal ideas. I'm obsessed with Stardew Valley and I keep a small notebook for notes. Your journal is so aesthetically pleasing.
Thank you so much! And i love that! ive seen a few people have a notebook for stardew valley. What kind of notes do you take for it?
@@ThatJournalingGuy I keep notes about what needed to complete the community center, characters' birthdays and loved gifts, what's needed to build structures, and what plants grow for each season.
I love that idea but the tiny little A6 journal makes my eyes twitch haha
haha i totally get this. Definitely small but helps me not feel like I have to fill up so much space you know? Lowest friction and easily maintainable.
Such a cool idea!❤😊
Thank youuuu!
Glad you liked it!
Totally agree with EVERYTHING you said. My time line started when I was about 7 with Mario Bros for NES, 9 Yoshis Island Super NES, Super Mario Bros 3 NES (15), Zelda Ocarina of Time, Majoras Mask, Golden Eye, Perfect Dark, Silent Hill N64 and several others(16), at 17 I discovered Super Mario RPG and actually skipped school to complete it and was my first completed game, later came The Legend of Dragoon XBox 360, Need for Speed Underground and Carbon and then GTA!!! Just recently I was finally able to purchase my own N64 with Majoras Mask and Ocarina as well as GTA and then SIMS 4 PC and BOTW and TOFK on Switch. I now have many more just turned 40 and I can absolutely lose my self in video games but haven’t touched any lately because I am so busy with work etc, I just don’t have the time. Musically my faves are GTA and sounds from ZELDA it’s hilarious every time I hear these on the radio etc and find myself giggling recalling where I know them from etc. also, when I’m lost in my thoughts I hum Mario Bros lol
hahaha the great paradox of being an adult gamer. Finally have enough money to buy all of our favorite games but not enough time to play them haha. I find myself in the same exact position. I ALSO just bought a N64 with Ocarina and Goldeneye again lol. And the GTA radio legit has some of the best radio commentary Ive ever heard. Still holds up to this day haha. I remember I had Liberty City Stories for the PSP and you could upload your own music to the memory card and listen to it in game, all I listened to was Crazy Frog while running people over haha 😂
As a gamer, I love this idea! May have to set one up in the future. Right now I'm mostly playing Fallout 76 and 7 days to die. For me "cozy" game I play Sims 4. Used to play a lot of Minecraft.
Ive just recently went back and beat Fallout 4 (with mods) to see if it holds up, and it did. I enjoyed it. Im hoping to get into Fallout 76 next. and I still have my minecraft eras where I go two or three weeks playing Minecraft nonstop haha.
For my current Stardew Valley farm I made a journal spread to track the stuff for the community center, and, since I like to do a theme for my farm, I track the names that I use for my farm animals.
Tracking your animal names is so smart, I have 4 goats that I wanted to name “Greatest”, “Of”, “All”, “Time”. 😂
@@lil.ikuraa that's so funny, though 😂😂😂
haha the name tracking for the farm animals is genius. Gonna have to do that for sure. That's really cool though! I think Stardew Valley really lends itself to being journaled about. Do you journal about any other games?
@@ThatJournalingGuy I haven't journaled any other games but there are a lot that I feel like I could. Mostly the farming sim games lol
Mass Effect 2 altered my brain chemistry.
changed. my. life. There's hasnt been a gaming experience that has topped it for me up until this point. The anticipation, the choices, the suicide mission. All of it. 11/10.
I love this idea!
Thank you!!
This is a great set-up. I'm reintroducing myself to Notion again and have a Media calendar/journal. Great inspiration for my gaming log section. Thank you for sharing. It was beautiful and insightful.
I have a gaming section in my notion too! Ive actually made a database of every single video game Ive ever played in my life, or at least the ones I can remember and retroactively going back and adding a review for each of them. Quite the process haha.
wow i've just been thinking of journaling ideas and happened upon this!!! this is great, thank you :) as an aside, LOVEEE moonlighter and excited to get to tunic myself, so good luck in your gaming journey 🫡
Ive really enjoyed Moonlighter so far! Ive been watching some of the developer logs and it's made me appreciate it so much more! and thank you!
Umm yes to all of this. They are coming out with a third Life is Strange 3 ❤ last of us put me through all the feels and I remember Blockbuster too so it’s all good 😂
ohhh are they making a 3rd one? I had no ideaaa. Gotta get going on this one then and finishing it up asap. Blockbuster will always have a special place in my heart, even if they did charge me like $100 in late fees lol
I’m sorry I’m like halfway through, but you mentioned buying Skyrim on every system and still not beating it… I have a feeling I’m gonna like you a lot. This is my first video from you by the way :D I have it for every single system, even ones I don’t own because I love the game so much and I have never beat it. But I don’t have all the trophies on any of systems hahaha
hahaha same. I dont have all the trophies either. But it's just suchhh a good game. Absolutely cant wait for the next one because ill be doing the same exact thing haha. Glad theres some else like me out there 😂
I have a gamer question for you: with so many games on your Steam list and other consoles, how do you commit yourself to playing one game to the end, without getting distracted and abandoning it for another game right away? I suffer from choice paralysis and end up playing nothing 😅
@7:00 never mind, you have the same problem! 😅
I have the SAME exact problem haha. The last game I "finished" was cult of the lamb. Idk, it's sort of why im in my indie game phase right now. People always want more and more in a game but 50-60 hours for a game is a huge commitment. These little indie games that provide a full experience in 10-15 hours is much more manageable for me. Specially with my schedule. So when you figure out the answer on how to stick to one game, let me know your secret lol
@ThatJournalingGuy I will!
