While 31 posts in August is not my goal it’s an aspiration and something I might be able to do one of these days. Looking back, my most “successful” Blaugust was in 2022 where I eked out 26 posts. That’s successful in the sense that it was the year with the most posts, but really more than 0 posts in August is a success in my book. More realistically, I see myself in the 10-15 range this year and would be very happy with that.
I joined Blaugust this year to give me some extra motivation to start writing regularly again. I already feel like that’s working. It may only be day two but I’ve already doubled this year’s post count. I even have two more posts scheduled out this weekend!
You never know though, my future self might find pleasantly surprise me at the end of the month. No pressure on you future self!
To get to that 10-15 post range I will need to spend more time playing games than I have been. I’m not sure if that will come in the form of trying lots of things from my library I haven’t played before or finding a game to sink some time into all month. I’ve been eyeing No Man’s Sky since it just had a graphical update and I haven’t played it in years. I also have a horde of games I, inexplicably, picked up in this years Steam Summer Sale that I really should should play…I’m suspecting it will be a mix of both.Either way, I’m hoping to find something that re-capture my interest and give me some posts to write.
And if not, well, I’ll just have to find something else to write about this month. That could be fun too.
Many Welps 
I’m a #blaugust first-timer this year, and my goals are akin to yours, Kluwes. More posts than zero, but posting daily is not in my particular deck of cards.
Regarding No Man’s Sky: I played it about two years ago, and found the game to be much improved over everything I had read about when it originally released. I enjoyed a good couple of hundred hours, including completing one of their ‘new save game’ events. I’d say it is definitely worth it if you’ve been away from NMS for several years, particularly if you only played it during the first couple of years after release.
Anyway: I’m looking forward to reading more of your posts this month!

I think that’s about the last time I played it as well. I bought it at release, had some fun with it in its original form even with its flaws and lack of stuff to do. Every few years I come back to check out what’s new. Of course, every time I come back I end up starting over completely because I forget how to play and I never get very far 😅
I was thinking about trying the Expedition that came with this latest patch to do something different this time .
