Steam Quickplays: January 2026

Posted on January 7
Welcome to the first edition of a series that I’m calling Steam Quickplays. As I’ve noted in previous posts, there are a number of Steam games that I picked up either through free giveaways or as part of bundles that sit in my backlog but aren’t priority to play.

Last night, I finally geared up Zuri with the full Courtly Lover’s Set – the newest crafted gear, which is ilvl 770 for level 100 jobs. While I’m not a huge fan of the way this set looks, it’s been a goal of mine to kit out this character for her path forward.

While I have a lot of IRL things to work on for the new year, I’m going to focus in this post on creative and gaming achievements I hope to accomplish. Last year, I found rounding up all the blogging, coding, gaming, and hobby focuses worked well, and that’s what I’m going to do again this year.

It’s that time of year again – the final day of 2025 in which I review all that I did in the past year as related to the goals I set at the beginning of the year. Overall, 2025 has been a rough year for me IRL between health issues and the loss of long-time employment. However, I’ve managed to mostly stay the course when it came to my gaming and creative goals.

Similar to last Christmas, I was on the road this year and received my gifts in person. So, I don’t have a list of individual items to post, but I still want to create a gallery of gifts like I did last year. Since the previous format worked well, I’ve done the same here.
