Comment on Yep, I actually own 7,255 games on Steam. I’ve played 23% of my library. I regret nothing.

Why do I play all these games? Because it's important that they're played.

Well, evidently not since you're actively ignoring about 77% of them 😂 And who boasts about their hyperconsumerism on fucking Lemmy of all platforms 😂

Wrong. Not ignored—not played yet.

  Journal, July 3, 2025:
  
  The day opened with a round of Barbie Project Friendship.
  
  I then followed it up with survival horror Amnesia: The Bunker from survival horror specialists Frictional Games.
  
  Next on the list was gay dom/sub dating sim Blood Domination.
  
  Then hard milsim Command: Modern Operations.
  
  I wound down with some relaxing time in art toy Zen Trails.
  
  I have always been partial to variety.

    The only game I own on this list is Amnesia.
    
    But yes, during a weekend, I’ve been known to launch a few titles. 😆

  Come on, none of us will ever play all their games. I’d bet around 2000 of my games on steam are some free keys or other incredibly cheap shit I wouldn’t touch with a 10m-pole. If I’d ever find them again in the library, that is.

    Hey, I’ve played every game I purchased between 2012-15.

    Playing for an hour to see how shitty it is? Or actually bought to enjoy for manymany hours, as intended? Thought so 😁 For us peeps with way more than a few k games, 20% actually been played would be already the big numbers I’d guess.

    Hmm sounds suspiciously like one of those sane people who buy a game and then have thousands of hours of fun with it. Get outta here 😁

    My completion rate is obviously much lower, but I've played at least two hours of 628/788 games in my 19 year old Steam account. I guess I'm a bit pickier with accepting freebies or buying on sales.
    
    That is the result of a deliberate effort. Two year long project to play at least 2 hours of every game in my backlog minimum before I can uninstall it. Until there's nothing let but the dregs. A YouTuber inspired me, except he had a time limit deadline for the video.
    
    Backlog was 258 games, now 160. Really there's about 30 left worth at least looking at. A lot of old crap from the very first Steam sale in there.
    
    Most recent from the backlog was Alpha Protocol with some pcgamingwiki fixes. Yep that's been sitting in there a long long time. Loved it so much I finished it!

    Definately one of the more wiser purchase-guys :-) I went a lil nuts when inventory-gifts were a thing. You know, doing what the corporations all do: Exploit globalism to my advantage. But for many years I rarey buy anything anymore, only if i REALLY intend to play it. I’m old, not wise :-)
