Patient Gamers

I personally like to write some general things I end up enjoying about a game, while I'm playing (or during pauses), mostly because I plan on making a YT channel, but also because I like to leave useful reviews on GOG and Steam. The thing about making notes during early on is that you can check them later and see if anything overstayed its welcome. It's also great to remember story details, if they're relevant

The good thing about simply writing down, even generic notes like "good music" and "controls really well" can help create that memory path to the actual experience. You don't need to be a "critic" to understand when something is great, good, bad or "just there", but it can take some skill to write in a way that makes sense to other people, so writing about the games you've been playing is a good way to train that!
