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’ve started to use Playnite. It’s nice to have a complete catelog of all my games. Most of my real games (ie ignoring random freebies) are on steam, but I’ve collected a bunch elsewhere like gog, epic, humble bundle, and others. You can give it credentials and set up nearly all the major catelogs so that it can generate a listing of all games you own.
I use it to mark when I completed a game, but I’ve only had it for a couple years, so I generally go by memory or by steam statistics of hours played.
Downside is that it’s Windows only. It’s open source and free, and I still have a windows machine for most of my gpu games, but I mainly game on my steam deck or my Linux laptop these days, so I need to find another option or see if Playnite is wine/Proton compatible.
