2024 was the year I started actually tracking what I consume. Better late than never.
The numbers are lighter than 2025—I didn't start logging everything until partway through the year—but here's what made it into the spreadsheet.
Games: 137 Hours, 7 Completions
Seven games finished. 137 hours logged. A solid year anchored by a few standouts.
Judgment took up the bulk of my time at 42 hours, blending detective noir with Yakuza-style beat-em-up combat. Sea of Stars delivered 40 hours of nostalgic JRPG charm, and EarthBound reminded me why I fell in love with weird, heartfelt RPGs in the first place.
Shorter experiences rounded things out: Inside delivered atmosphere in 3.5 hours, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion was exactly as ridiculous as the title suggests, and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart showcased what the PS5 could do.

| Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart | 9.0 | 15h |

Comics: 38 Issues, 9 Series
I spent most of 2024 catching up on major Marvel events and diving into some indie darlings.
Batman: Dark Age and Dawnrunner were the highlights—both earning perfect scores. The former reimagines Batman's history through a political lens, while the latter delivers kinetic sci-fi action with gorgeous art.
I also finally read House of X and Powers of X, the twin series that reset the X-Men universe. Both lived up to the hype.

Final Thoughts
2024 was the year I started paying attention. Not just consuming, but actually tracking what resonated and what didn't.
It set the foundation for a much more obsessive 2025.
I was inspired by this video to create and track a 'pledge list' of video games I aimed to beat over the year:
