How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years?
-
I don't. If I played a game and then forgot about it, then i get to play it again at a different stage in life. It's a whole new experience! Why would I want to miss out on that?
There is nothing to miss out on by just keeping a list of which games you have played and when. It's just an extra step after finishing playing a game.
Does steam recording the last launch date of a game ruin your next experience with a game for you ?

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!
I use Obsidian to list the games.
I start using this 3-4years ago, there's a lot of games on "Not started" or "On hold" there are games there I finished but want to replay and there's a lot of older games that I played and didn't add to "Done". In my case is more of games that I bought it and need to be remembered to play it.

Well, the point of such an app would be to have them listed I would guess.
Yes. I was just responding to the comment asking if he/she was the only one who remembers if they've played a game.

I do the same but use collections in steam, so I move the game when done, want to play, is playing and so on, and if I really hate/dislike the game then i will hide it.
Btw i saw you had Borderlands on hold did you see the user stats on the whole Frenchies? Big red text "overwhelming negativ", most comments was about it being spy wear so maybe change that status to Nope with Genshin impact? I haven't really looked into it tho saw it a moment ago.

The nope are games that I dropped because of problems to play it on Linux or I didn't like to play.
Genshin is there because I have another gacha game in the Non Stop(FGO), playing both of them is impossible.
I saw the clusterfucker 2k/take two did with borderlands and fuck them, but it's still possible to play without their shit by sailing the high seas so I still plan to finish Borderlands 3.

If I remember it then it was good enough to remember

I've been using obsidian notes for a lot of things. I have a kanban board there that goes buy->bought->in progress->finished->100%
The last step is pretty useless because I never even want to 100% a game. I should remove it. The main use for the board is so when I haven't played anything in a long time, I can look and go "oh, I had that one going" and pick it up instead of starting some other new game.
Yeah, I think I'll remove the 100% from mine too, it's been a while since the last time I did it and at one point I stopped enjoying doing it

Though I use it more often to track my books, as I mostly play endless live service games 
I can sort of use my Steam review date stamps too to track what I played, bc I review the vast majority of games I try.
Edit: and in Steam I put the finished/dropped games in their own categories, but my tag setup there is really extensive, so probably not the best example
(I have at least 5-6 tags on each of my games.) -

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.

I use Infinitebacklog, which is basically the video games version of what letterboxd is for films or rateyourmusic is for music

Reading the comments - am I the weird one for just remembering?
Look at you just raw dogging your steam library.
