I stopped using backloggery as a way to get me to complete games so much as a place to keep track of my games. It's now my online database that I check to make sure I don't buy the same game twice. It's also cool to record your progress in the games you're playing there.
I rarely read reviews or user reviews to pick a game to play. I'll read them just for fun or to see what someone else thought, but I won't pick any game based on a review. I look for certain kinds of game content and certain developers who's games I've liked in the past to lead me. Like I want to play Fantasy Life because it's a Level 5 game and I want to play Codename STEAM because it's by Intelligent Systems who did the Advance Wars games. I also like games that are compared to some of my favorites, like if you say any game is like Valkyria Chronicles, I'll very likely buy it no matter what the Metacritic score is.
