Friendly reminder that “backlogs“ are prisons of your own making. There is no moral imperative to play or complete every game you buy!

What if I only have 4 games?

Horrible_Goblin ,

“My favorite game” “My second favorite game” “My third favorite game” “One must not look a gift horse in the mouth”

Horrible_Goblin , in I'm mildly proud of how I categorise my games on Steam and interested to see others' methods

Didn’t even know I could do that :') thanks

I’ll come back to this when I sorted them… although I really do like your system.

Its a little more convoluted than I’d like. I Should really merge things like Meh/ Package deal/Discontinued/kinda done though

MadBob OP , (edited )

I used to have a category called “maybe pile” but it didn’t make sense to me to stick it near the top.

Edit: same with one called “abandon all hope ye who enter here”.

Horrible_Goblin ,

Honestly, I didn’t really bother ordering them. I tend to only go trough my games when I’m either looking for something new to play (in which case I already kinda know what I want) or when I’m super bored, and then I’m gonna go trough most tabs anyway.

It’s mostly just nice to have the junk filtered out ^^

Not pictured: Won’t make the mistake of playing with Craig again

kartoffelsaft , in I'm mildly proud of how I categorise my games on Steam and interested to see others' methods

I have mine set up with a bunch of categories that are sorted with a prepended 3-digit number. Allows me to have different sections of category without it getting mixed up. ex:


<span style="color:#323232;">010 S
</span><span style="color:#323232;">011 A+
</span><span style="color:#323232;">012 A
</span><span style="color:#323232;">013 A-
</span><span style="color:#323232;">014 B+
</span><span style="color:#323232;">etc...
</span><span style="color:#323232;">350 plz play soon
</span><span style="color:#323232;">355 wont play
</span><span style="color:#323232;">...
</span><span style="color:#323232;">800 dont remember buying this
</span>

I think you’ll find my naming scheme perfectly cromulent.

Scheme 'Em Ups

Malix ,
@Malix@sopuli.xyz avatar

come on! Lindsay 'em up!

funkless_eck ,

that is so my wife can find the games she likes and I am trying to make it as easy as possible for her without my nonsense

EldritchFeminity ,

Gotta get you some City Build 'Em Ups.

funkless_eck ,

they’d be under God 'Em Ups (currently Command and Conquer, Rollercoaster Tycoon, Civilization games, Worms, Theme Hospital etc)

EldritchFeminity ,

But if you don’t build 'em up, how can you knock 'em down?

I kinda figured that’s what was in there, but the pun was right there and I couldn’t resist.

Guntrigger ,

I just wonder how Lindsey compares to Craig.

Potatos_are_not_friends , in I'm mildly proud of how I categorise my games on Steam and interested to see others' methods

Something similar.

  • play soon
  • done but revisit
  • Done and meh
  • Done and complete

For example - “done and complete” is Portal 2. Great experience, but no reason to just replay it. “Done and meh” could be games where I gave up trying.

Then it’s

  • Steam Deck only
  • Play with wife
  • Play with kids
  • Pc only

Finally it’s specific categories about how it makes me “feel”.

  • Chill-like - vampire survivors, or farm games, or Satisfactory
  • Action-like - fps, action games. Doom or Horizon Zero Dawn
  • Story - strong narrative. Like Nier automata, or Witcher 3

The valve tags are better if i want granular.

I just have installed and finished. Also emulator categories created by emudeck

@Promethiel@lemmy.world avatar

I need me a Craig.

toynbee ,

I’d play games with you as time permits.

@craigers@lemmy.world avatar

We’re around

Sensitivezombie , in I'm mildly proud of how I categorise my games on Steam and interested to see others' methods

Wouldn’t games under Craig and Would play with Craig again overlap? Unless Craig has currently playing games.

xamirozar ,

They say Craig is a mate they play games with when time permits, so I assume those are in progress games

MadBob OP ,

They’re games we’ve not got around to yet or not finished yet, whereas the “would play” is ones we’re more or less done with but might come back to in the distant future. We don’t get to do it very often because we live in different timezones and he’s got two young chiddlers.

Fubarberry , in I'm mildly proud of how I categorise my games on Steam and interested to see others' methods
@Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz avatar

I just have Favorites (all games installed, steam or non-steam), playlist (games I want to play but haven’t installed yet), and finished games.

Everything else is mixed together to search through when I’m looking for something specific (coop, etc).
