so much to organize, damn you humble bundle
I’m late to the party, but I’ve categorized them by year. If I feel nostalgic, I just browse the top of the list.
There are categories? My 446 entries are just kind of there, alphabetically.
Steam has categories?
Dishonored 3? Where did you find that one already?
It’s a category that has 3 items: Dishonored, Dishonored 2 and Dishonored: Death of the Outsider.
This is the most logical
I hope that someday this will be automatic
I’m surprised I didn’t see it mentioned here (unless I missed it) but I use the “hide game” function liberally. Anything I’m not interested in, gave up on with no chance of trying again, completed with no desire to revisit, or won’t touch for any other reason just goes away, out of sight. It helps give a real sense of progression through your collection and you can pare it down to favorites you would likely revisit and things you have yet to play. And the hidden tab is easily viewable if you ever want to look at everything for any reason like rethinking putting a particular game in there.

Thank you for giving me inspiration of what to do with that feature!
i have 3 categories:
hentai
not hentai
stupid
Thats a lot of categories. I’ve got “current”, “Done with”, “never again” and the uncategorized, since functionally that is my backlog.
VR and non-VR for me.
The majority of backlogs being in “other” is because you bought hundreds of games you don’t remember buying or what genre they are, right? 😆
Mostly games that don’t fit into an existing category that I don’t feel like creating a dedicated category for. Like I could create a stealth category for Thief and Hitman, but it would only contain those two games. Then there’s games like Transistor, Cloudpunk, Spiritfarer, etc where I just don’t know how I could even categorize them.
mine is just
- Favorites
- Multiplayer games my girlfriend also has
- Everything else
I go by main genre - so Action, Adventure, RPG, ARPG, Rhythm, VR, you get it.
Then a Beaten, Beaten 100%, Shelved, “The Bin”, and a “Multiplayer” category. Games are allowed in multiple categories. The Bin does not hold many games, you’ve gotta earn being thrown in the trash.
That way, when I think, “I wanna play a Rogue Like” I don’t have to recall all their titles or anything. Then my Steam Deck came around and the default big picture view makes my sorting… Mostly useless.
I currently have it sorted by year (I used some year date from Steam, but that isn’t super accurate as I think it’s the date it was added to Steam). I think I used Depressurizer?
I used to have it sorted by the Steam score, IIRC.
I could never be this organized, but good for you tbh
I stopped doing that after the first few hundreds… Now I’m at >5000 or so and only do a “bought to actually play” category 😁
Tf🤨
Yes, I’ve got then by genre, completed, to be played, “butt ugly indies” and “devil’s lettuce approved”
