I do the organizing with categories/tags in game libraries that supports it; want to play, playing, beaten, given up, unbeatable.

I also have something similar in Playnite, though I don’t love that program.

I also love notebooks, I keep a notebook around for writing in during games, and I set up lists for each year with a column for bought games and one for played games. With this I can see what games I have played since 2016/17 or thereabout.

I love statistics, and seeing when and for how long I played a game is fun.

I use Gamebrary because it's FOSS, so I suppose you could in theory clone the repo and self-host it, but IDK how self-hosting ready it is.

Yeah this seems like a good alternative, thanks for the shout!

Obsidian is my main notetaking app, so I use the kanban plugin to keep a list of games I’m playing, plan to play, and finished.

I’m pretty happy with $500 in my account.

Replying to you again because you clearly blocked my other account

1. I’m not a bot
2. There were massive events the past few days and I’m posting trailers as they come. People are clearly interested in them and gives them a place to talk about these trailers
3. Have you tried not being an asshole? You’re mad at me for posting game news in the game community?
4. Stop mentioning me

Pinging me twice and calling me a garbage reddit karma farmer isn’t “an opinion”. Many people enjoy the trailers to catch up to events that happen a few days every year. Surely you can handle that without throwing a fit. Either way, I’m blocking you too so enjoy the one or two threads I overshadowed in the one hour the Xbox event was going on.

Add links to !fallout and !skyrim too.

If we’re doing individual games, there are so many but off the top of my head !stardewvalley, !pokemon, !workersandresources, !cities_skylines, !baldurs_gate_3, and I guess !touhou even though that is mostly just reposts of other peoples’ art of the characters and nothing else because in the end, it is a video game series.

I realize hitting all the game-related communities might expand the sidebar too much. Spoilers are also useful for condensing lots of content to one dropdown. If that is still too much, you could make a whole post that lists video game communities and link to it on the sidebar. I know I collected a big mega list way back when, not the genre one I linked below, but one full of basically everything I could find video-game related… that is probably full of dead communities now because I think I made this list around 2 years ago when Kbin was still a thing with my now-dead account. So everything might fit on one separate post for now. But I definitely think having a sort of directory for video game communities might be useful and helpful.

What about links for the top few, pastebin/similar list for the rest?

Dremor, 28 dni temu (edited 27 dni temu)

I think I will put like 10 5 everything, then link to a dedicated page on the git repo (I’ll try to make it a wiki so everyone can add its own)

Edit : Reduced to 5 to keep it concise as a start. I’ll put the others in a dedicated topic

Edit 2 : Fuck it, let’s put everything

Finished playing F.E.A.R. for the first time and am now about halfway through the first expansion Extraction Point. Man, it really holds up incredibly for a 20-year-old game.

The particle effects look fantastic for their age, the lightly destructible environments add a beautiful layer of carnage and the gunplay is surprisingly great for such an old game. Every single gun feels satisfying to use (bar the bizarrely awful assault rifle), with the highlight of course being nailing people to the wall with the famous 10mm HV Penetrator.

The AI is also just as good as people say and it continues to surprise me with shockingly good dynamic behaviour for again a game of this age. Especially the way they interact with the environment in unscripted ways impress me: closing doors behind them as they retreat to wait in ambush or smashing windows and vaulting over to charge you for example.

The horror and story is actually the weak point, at least of the main game. It’s all pretty predictable, the horror is fairly mediocre and not even the jump scares really land. I will say it has been better in the expansion so far, though, even if it’s still only sort of okay.

But that doesn’t really matter. The atmosphere does enough to sell its pseudo horror identity, but the fantastic gunplay across these well designed claustrophobic levels is worth experiencing. It’s a classic for a reason and I completely get why. And with it frequently being for sale for like a dollar on GOG it’s a must play, I think.

Just make sure to install the EchoPatch!

Going forward? RetroAchievements, Steam, GOG, and LaunchBox to tie it all together. PSN trophy integration to LaunchBox would be cool too, because PS3 stuff is never coming to any of those platforms and I have history there, too.

For historical stuff, that’s in my memory exclusively.

Trying to beat the highest difficulty in Windblown. It’s not going well. I’d basically need to be able to beat the game hitless, which I’m not good enough for.

Ender Magnolia after finishing Ender Lilies. Both are phenomenal games, absolutely loved both. Amazing art direction, fluid gameplay, challenging but not frustrating.

Speaking of Zelda, now that I scratched my itch to play some Metroidvania, I am kind of in the mood for a Zelda binge, too many of those I left unfinished in the past.

My Steam library. I have everything categorized and keep them in a category until I have played and completed them to my satisfaction.

Noodle07, 22 dni temu

I have categories too, I have trash category for uninteresting games from humble bundles and random keys purchases, I have the played category for games I played, and I have the uber trash shit game category for sacred 3 and two worlds

Helps me keep track of which games I’ve played and which games I own on which platform to avoid double-buying.

fouloleron, 22 dni temu do games w How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years?

I’ve only played one game since 2005.

vortexal, 22 dni temu do games w How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years?

I don’t intentionally use it to keep track of the games I’ve played but I’ve been using GameFAQs to keep track of older console games I have not yet played. It’s not perfect for this as I need to use documents to keep track of some additional information but I have yet to find a better alternative.

For PC games, some of the platforms I use, like GOG and Itch, actually have built in features to help me to keep track of what games I haven’t played yet. For the others (and mobile) I still have to use documents to keep track of this as well.
