so much to organize, damn you humble bundle

Goals. Holy, I know what I’m doing tomorrow instead of gaming.
Guess I’m kinda normal. I just install what I wanna play, filter by playable and store by last played.
- To Play
- Finished
- Unfinished (games I gave up on)
- Time Sink (unending games, roguelikes, etc)
- Multiplayer
- Multiplayer (5+)
- Local Multiplayer
I have an _installed, a backlog in general, genre based dynamic categories, and a few special categories such as “bad games that should feel bad”, “broke shit check for patch later” “GFWL Broken” and “games of lost interest”
No man sky was one of those broken games. Now I’m 65 hours into it.
It is always nice when a game can turn itself around
Steam user since the early days, and no categories here. Why bother. Thousands of games, too much work.
Same thing with profiles, like what do I need that shit for?
Edit: I do want to say, I admire your organization.
… New Years resolution to say something nice a lot more often, we call could use it …
Categories? I don’t use categories. Just a single giant list! Also, I never clear out my email inbox and let it pile up into the thousands! And no one can stop me. MWHAHAHAA!
I categorize them based on their franchise. But if they’re not part of any franchise or they’re the only game I have they’d just be uncategorized.
I tried, but dynamic filters were not good enough, so i gave up.
Only have “Ready To Play”, “All Played” and “Uncategorized” now.
I would do this.
And then only play Rocket League.
No I already have a full time job.
I just have a finished one where I move them after I finish the story or I’m done with a game.
I’m migrating away from steam and starting my library over.(Moving away from accounts and drm) So in the future my library will only have games that I have actually played and will play.
Yeah I’m buying games twice but no one likes captain hindsight.
Good for you. That’s the way. I’ve only ever bought one game from steam and it cost me $0.99. Most of my games are from GOG where I can actually download the .exe file because I should be able to, because I own the fucking game. I know there are drm free games on steam, but I’ve always liked GOG. I have a bunch of games .exe files backed up in several places. I also have a bunch of PS4/PS3/PS2 games, physical copies.
Valve has made it so I can game entirely on linux. I remember when Steam started and I hated it, I didn’t want an account. But after all these years its been nothing but ways that benefit me.
I like GOG but they can’t be bothered to even create a library tool. Yes third party ones exist, but you would think they could at least try.
And in the end, if it all goes away, it was just games. Not like I couldnt get them back if I really tried, and if you really wanted to do something about it, you CAN archive your steam library.
I mean, if you’ve already paid for the games in the past, and you’re going totally DRM free anyway… I feel like you’re morally all good to go sailing.
Modern games are a pain in the ass and the download speeds are horrible. I’d rather just buy them and download the game in 2 hours.
I don’t mind supporting the devs I like, anyways.
That’s pretty cool! If you don’t mind me asking, how are you doing the migration? Last I’ve checked, most games on steam are sold on there & perhaps other consoles & platforms, but rarely as a direct download from the publisher/dev. The only ones that come to mind are Factorio & Starsecter. So how are you building that library?
Unless your using GoG, itch (which would be limiting I’d think), or piracy (which from another comment you implied you weren’t doing?), I don’t see how this would be practical.
Not trying to throw shade, just really curious.
Pretty much just GoG. Most of the games I want to continue playing are on there.
If not that, then looking for FOSS alternatives(Like instead of minecraft I have VoxeLibre)
Makes sense, very cool
I think that’s part of why you have a backlog.
In all seriousness though, I have a couple lists for like “Workshop” and “Souls like,” otherwise it’s just sorted by what’s installed and most recent.
I do have a favorites list though.
My list is just my entire list, sorted by installed and recent. No folders, no organisation, just a very long list
TIL there are Steam categories
Well my list is this:
- installed shit
- all
