I have like 80+games totaling well into the thousands of dollars and still only play like 6 games, half of which are free

I don’t buy games unless i play them

There’s a place by me that keeps a snowblower up on their roof for that exact scenario.

Nah this is crazy dumb to me tbh.
I only play a few games too but ive downloaded and played them all. If I buy a game and dont feel like playing it ill just get a refund. It literally takes 1 minute to refund.
The idea of purchasing a game and then never playing or downloading it is bizarre to me.

No. Do people like that actually exist? I have hundreds in my library and I’ve finished all of them, ranging from AAA to short indie games.

Used to be me prior to Covid. Then I made it a mission to start playing through my backlog. Finished about 20 games a year since then (keep in mind some may not be that long and can be done in a weekend). I kept an Excel spreadsheet to keep tally. I’m finally down to just 2 games (ones which I estimate can take about 100h each to finish) before Borderlands 4 releases in September.
I do have a bunch of free games I only started a few times and let run for 15-30 minutes in order to get the cards for XP so I can be above level 100 in Steam 😅

Yes, but you need a second roof for GOG, a third for Epic, and a fourth for Amazon Games. I don’t even know how many games I “own”. Must be north of 1,000.
ElSelcho_
You forgot about the other roof with the games i’ll buy on sale to add to the never played pile.
pereira2088
no. if i bought them, i’ve played them.
now, gifted games, that’s another story.
SneakySpoons
Yup, my library has somewhere in the neighborhood of 450 games (not counting dlc’s), and I have an average completion rate of 22%. I have like 20 games with over 100 hours, and another 50 with less than 10 hours. The rest I got on a sale and have never played.
FEARoperative4
I have about 500 in total and completed about 300 of them, not doing so bad. But yeah there are games I’ve never installed.
_Master_Ace_
I think there’s only like 2 or 3 games that I bought but never played.
Cuz usually I would buy and immediately try it, even if it’s a bunching games from sale.
My issue is I’ve got a shot ton of games I am half way through with because I quit after getting bored of gthegame mechanics and I don’t want to come back cuz it’ll be too boring to try to redo the first half that I already played lol
GamingWOW1
Same but the rest are games that I played for a bit over 2 hours, therefore unable to refund them
Fuck-pez
I’m too poor to relate, I buy two games a year.
Memonlinefelix
Lol you should see me library for consoles + PC.
Tbug20
My brother is one of those people, and since we have a shared library via Steam Families, that means I am technically one of them too.

I feel attacked.
Mental_Panda_6511
Yes lol but that’s me with epic games freebies
reirone
Or played for 5 minutes and wasn’t in the mood and never went back to it.
PoorBoyUnicorn
My backlog has grown to the point that it is mathematically impossible to play all these games in my lifetime. I guess we will be the first generation to bequeath digital libraries to our descendants…
ClearlyNtElzacharito
Absolutely not. Except for devil may cry 5 and black mesa, which I’ll eventually finish. Then I end up replaying cyberpunk, atomic heart and resident evil, and marvel rivals since new games are too expensive.
UsernameCheckOuts
Finally something to weigh in on. I’ve got 1200+ games, I’ve played 321 of them. 25% ish?
That’s better than the picture, but I still feel like a dick. If anyone’s prepared to tell me what I need to play still from my own library, pop me a message and I’ll show you what I’ve not played (spoiler: there’s probably 100 point and click adventures I’ll never play. I also don’t seem to be able to get into RTS since I reached my mid 20s.
Sociolinguisticians
I realized after awhile that if I see a game on sale, it’ll probably be on sale again later for a cheaper price, so unless I plan on playing it immediately, there’s no reason to buy it.
AwwYeahVTECKickedIn
at the McD’s drive through speaker: “Yes, I’ll take 75 cheeseburgers.”
Drive-thru employee “You’re going to eat 75 cheeseburgers?”
Yup, relatable. I have Cyberpunk, Arkham Asylum games, Witcher 1 & 2, and so many others. Never played them, been there for years.
KizunaJosh
