CanadianCorhen, 20 dni temu do games w How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years?

Basically just my steam lists.

I’m losing track of books, and started tracking them, but games tend to hang around longer, since they take me longer to get through.

Arkhive, 20 dni temu do games w Arcturus looking for playtesters!

I’m a discord hater and low key refuse to join more servers as I try to convince my communities to move to different platforms. Would love to test on Linux for you though. Happy to provide feedback back here or something.

The screenshot is giving a bit of fallout 1 + 2 vibes, which I love.

muts, 20 dni temu

Fair enough, what kind of communities that would offer a similar hub as discord would you convince others on? I can try relaying back here as I’d appreciate having you testing but it’s not ideal I reckon for the purpose.

Matrix, and there’s a P2P one that just went around called PeerSuite? Both are far from perfect, but at least aren’t yucky corpo platforms. Sorry to come across so harsh in the initial comment, the tone in my head was light hearted I promise lol. More of a “I’m happy to help figure out an alternative communication stream in order to make me a useful tester.” Might be worth making your game a Mastodon account to direct people to from the Steam page? Could be a good spot to encourage people to learn about the fediverse and provide a channel for updates and a message system for testers? Idk. Discord is somewhat unique still in the type of organizational tools it provides, hence the love-hate relationship I have with it lol

Not harsh at all, I deleted all my social platforms about 5 years ago and so I have like zero presence anywhere, it has been amazing for me personally. But it means I’m totally out of the loop and in a poor position to grass roots market this 😂.

I’ll check out those platforms thanks for the rundown. In the meantime if you still want to keep in the loop I don’t mind updating you in DM, Id rather have 1 genuinely interested person with good feedback than a million silent followers!

At the end of the year I look at the Steam Year in Review overview.

MyNameIsAtticus, 20 dni temu do games w How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years?

Steam is where almost all my games are and i’ll have it sorted into a Not Played, Playing, Completed, and 100% category. Recently i’ve started trying to look into NeoDB though for things i can’t add to steam (Like PS3 games)

Megaman_EXE, 21 dni temu do gaming w Resident Evil fans: Can I skip RE5 to play Revelations 2?

I think 5 was okay playing solo. I thought it was fine enough

6 was a bit more painful playing solo because of the AI.

I would say you could just try it and see if it bugs you too much. Otherwise, just skip it, read up or watch the story and continue to have fun on your own terms

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.

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

taiyang, 21 dni temu do games w How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years?

I’ve been using Launchbox, especially since I play emulator games. They’ve improved the efficiency of large libraries and added support for RetroAchievements, although I manually toggle completion status since I don’t always use it to launch my games so the time tracker isn’t accurate.

More importantly it let’s me hit randomize, so if I’m feeling adventurous it’ll pull a game from my backlog I might have got from anywhere.

caut_R, 21 dni temu do games w How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years?

I have all games I have completed on Steam in Hidden, all games I‘ve never played in its own list and all games I have started in its own list. If I start a game I move it from one list to the other and same when I‘ve finished one. Only works for Steam stuff obviously. But I play 95% of my stuff there so that‘s good enough for me.

zaphod, 21 dni temu do games w How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years?

I keep a list in a plain text file. It has sections for each year and one section for games I’m interested in. The list used to be on paper and I’m considering going back to that.

darthelmet, 21 dni temu do games w How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years?

Not a complete list, but I made a spreadsheet to help me keep track of the games I bought but then never or barely played to try to get me to revisit them in some organized way. Outside of that, there’s just the steam library. Anything further back from my time playing on consoles is kind of just lost to time and memory unless it was a particularly memorable game.

Blackout, 21 dni temu do gaming w Everyone finds games to be wholesome when you can pet dogs, but what about cats?

That's my biggest complaint about RDR2. Almost perfect game except you can't pet the cougars.

Hugin, 21 dni temu do gaming w (SPOILERS) Bethesda is shit - Fallout 4 (2015) Impressions

I played Fallout 4 back when it came out. About 10 hours in I was doing some quest approaching a building with some guys I had to kill to get a thing. And I realized I wasn’t having fun.

I thought about what else I could do. Building settlement wasn’t fun. The quests stories were dull. I didn’t like any of the NPC characters. So I stopped playing figuring I would come back latter.

It’s been years and I still haven’t bothered returning. A I’ve been playing Bethesda games starting with daggerfall.
