How do you like to approach writing about games?
I’ve noticed there are some folks writing at length here on their experiences playing games, so this felt like a good place to ask. Do you take notes as you play, and/or after each session, then write out full thoughts upon completing a game?
Or are your reflections compiled only after finishing a game, no notes?
I’ve dabbled with different approaches, and haven’t really settled on a consistent process personally.
Heya, I dig the walls of text sometimes! I also tend to bounce around a variety of games, so I like the idea of short notes about each. Until recently I was writing similar notes digitally as separate notepad files and littering them throughout my computer, but I’ve been trying to make a habit of using stuff like Zim or Joplin to keep them better organized. 😅
Also right there with you on covering weird jank and “subpar” games, so thanks for writing about them!
Joplin is my goto as well!
I’ve got a lot of jank to write about in my backlog, might find some interesting surprises if you like that type of experiences.
