Hiya, just newly thought about something: wouldn’t be nice if there was a simple way of checking what games you have played over the years, a way to keep track of wether you liked the game or not, how much time you spent playing it etc… Currently, personally i only check steam library for those kinda details. But it would be nice if there was a more dedicated solution for it, like a selfhosted app or something along those lines.
I’m not well educated regarding this so if there are any current solutions for this then please let me know, and let me know if you yourself have a special kind of system for this!
have a great rest of your weekend!
Reading the comments - am I the weird one for just remembering?
If by remembering you mean “I use no tools to keep track of games I’ve played and make no special effort at remembering, either I do or I don’t”, then same. But also in the last few years I’ve been playing a lot less games than I used to (and I didn’t really play that many to start with).
Hmm… for me, it’s less about memory and more about helping myself see a pattern of what I like and what I don’t, which eventually helps me make better purchasing decisions.
Like, when I look at a list of my favorite games, I can conclusively tell you: I like challenging, replayable games with real-time action, synergy among their mechanics, and mechanical variety.
For me, this knowledge would not have been attainable if I didn’t sit down and put together a list of what I like/what I don’t like.
Must be nice to have a functioning memory like this
The tradeoff is that I’m terrible at time. Anything beyond about ten days in the future is almost meaningless to me.
Me too, but I don’t really play a lot of video games, so I could list every game I’ve ever played pretty quickly.
Look at you just raw dogging your steam library.
