Started a new personal website where I rank games I play by difficulty

Mods, please feel free to delete this thread if you think it’s advertising. I’m really not trying to advertise, I gain nothing from this, it’s an open source hobby project.

**tl;dr** – The website: https://gamedb.droid.moe/

Since I spend [most of my immersion time](https://i.imgur.com/kFwoMbt.png) [playing videogames](https://www.backloggd.com/u/MorgJP/games/) [(1000+ hours last year)](https://www.reddit.com/r/LearnJapanese/comments/18y1wmk/my_japanese_immersion_report_of_2023_2023_in/) and I’ve always wanted to do some kind of hobby reviews of the games I play, I decided to combine the two things together and sprinkle in a bit of Japanese learning on top, to create a website where I just list the various games I play and provide some comments about them from the point of view of JP learning.

Right now the site is still pretty empty as I’m going back to all the games I played and slowly adding them in, which can take some time as I need to also remember some details I might have forgotten (how hard was it? does it have furigana? does it have voice acting? etc) but I plan to add more and more as I go through new ones too.

Each game listed comes with some commentary about how I felt (from the point of view of JP learning) about it, so people with similar tastes to mine can maybe find them useful.

As for two questions [I already imagine some people might have](https://gamedb.droid.moe/FAQ.html):

– Why not use jpdb.io/etc? -> because these are my **subjective** ratings. It’s meant to be a personal project with my own personal opinions. It’s not an objective comparison using tools like character count, sentence analysis, or whatever other fancy stuff other sites use.

– Why the site name? -> I already had the domain name registered and I wanted to use it for something, so I just went with it. No real reason.

If you think it’s useful and/or if you want to contribute with comments or fixes (the whole thing is [open source](https://github.com/Morgawr/jpgamedb)), you’re very welcome!

PS: I’m not a web designer and I wrote this site from scratch with no external help. If you think it looks ugly, it’s probably because it is, but we’ll survive.
