Implies:I Don’t categorize

Working on it - Stuff I’m in the middle of

Leeloo Dallas Multipass - Anying that is 2 or more players

Done Did - Games that I’ve done did

Then title groupings for anything with 5 or more installments.

Localhorst86 , in I'm mildly proud of how I categorise my games on Steam and interested to see others' methods

1 - currently playing 2 - favorites (contains games that I often replay, even if I finished them) 3 - next up 4 - finished (games that I finished, I.e. i saw the credits of) 5 - completed (games that I finished and have 100% achievements on) 6 - abandoned (tried the game, didnt click with it, unlikely to be picked up in the future)

I use genre categories to which I assign games I have completed.

barrbaric , in I'm mildly proud of how I categorise my games on Steam and interested to see others' methods
  • Favorites (I’ll play again after finishing) (21 games)
  • Completed (I’ve finished and probably won’t play again) (430 games)
  • Dead Games (online games that are literally unplayable due to servers going down) (3 games)
  • TBD (I haven’t finished yet) (140 games)

Completed also includes things I decided weren’t worth playing anymore, mostly from bundles back in the day. Stuff like Fallout Tactics and some of the XCOM spinoffs.

A few games in my favorites and the rest is uncategorized (i only have like 20 games though so that’s not much of a problem)

Looking at some of these… I’d never even considered sectioning them by genre - mine’s mostly by physical location - if I want to play that game, where’s it already installed?

So there’s :
Desktop, Laptop, Deck Internal, Deck SD1 (and SD2, 3 & 4 for removable SD cards)

Then like most people, I’ve got a “Complete” and a “Maybe [person’s name]” for ones the missus might enjoy.

The only sort of grouping is “Wheel Games”, which is basically driving games, but the type you want to play with wheel & pedals, not just a controller. My wheel and pedals aren’t set up permanently, so when they are set up, I pretty much only play all the Euro Truck/Bus Sims, Dirt Rally, F1, Revhead, BeamNG sort of games etc.

MadBob OP ,

I did also use to have lists for my laptop and hand-me-down PC, and one called “need a better computer”, but my laptop’s since given up the ghost and I have a better computer.

Needs a “morally obligated to never play again” for Spec Ops and OneShot

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

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 ^^

hal_5700X , in I'm mildly proud of how I categorise my games on Steam and interested to see others' methods

The boring way.

I just leave mine in the recent activity sort, and then use the search bar when i want to play something that i havent played recently

lordnikon , in Steam appears to be down.

works fine for me

hperrin OP ,

Let’s hope that means it’s a local outage. Where are you located? I’m in Southern California, and it’s down for me.

lemann , in Steam appears to be down.

cory_lowry , in What are your favorite Steam games?
@cory_lowry@lemmy.world avatar

Red dead 2, Horizon Zero Dawn, Cyberpunk 2077, Death Stranding, Control, and Hogwarts Legacy just to name a couple. I don’t have a favorite game but those would probably be my top picks.
