During the dry months, what do you do?

[Sirgeorge]

So, when the games aren't coming out, what do you do? What happens when the taps have run dry for the predictable future?

[zeorhymer]

Try to play my giant backlog. Key word is *try*. I'd probably end up playing OW, No Man's Sky or Fallout 4.

[grayfox313]

The giant backlog I already own 😒

[ethansito]

The games I play are over a decade old, lol.

I am fine.

[Merlin]

I almost never have issues. To be honest 2018 was so bad for gaming that its allowed me to play a lot of old stuff. Only pretty Smash has been a really "new" big game that I've played.

[Matcam89]

I have games still in shrink wrap and games purchased during Steam sales never even started - i think i could go the whole year without needing a new game.

[isturbo1984]

Well, we haven't had a "dry" season for about a decade now. So I'm usually stacked.

[Musou Tensei]

Huge backlog, retro games, imports, older current gen games I havn't bought yet for various reasons, it would really need a 5+ year long drought before I remotely run out of "new" games to play.

[xadu]

I still have to play fallout tactics, which GOG suddenly gifted to me out of nothing, and is resting on my HD.

[Irritablesquid]

I never have a dry period, I rarely complete games quickly so it's an ever been a problem.
I also enjoy Minecraft and cities skylines so I'm always playing something.

I'll even replay games if I'm desperate but I rarely am.

[Methpoodle]

This might be controversial, but I like to go outside.

[FrameZ]

Go back to Monster Hunter World, mod Fallout or work my-self through my ever growing backlog.

[RepentantSky]

2018 was mostly dry for me because a lot of the time nothing was releasing that I cared about. During that time I pulled out my 3DS and played games I never finished or even got past points in some games that I couldn't figure out before and played some games I already beat but never revisited and had a good time with them. That's usually what I do during down times, and in a lot of ways, that's sometimes more fun than getting new games.

[Hopeless Wombat]

sorry amigo, but I'm never dry >; )

on a serious note though, I'm constantly shifting between recent releases and older stuff that I don't get that feeling.

[Lehran]

I have a few single player games that I like so much I play through them once at year. After that the backlog has me covered until my hands fall off.
