Welcome post


Hi guys!

This is my first day here, and to be honest right now I’m checking this posting device, so I decided to day hello, and note for future me, how many games I have in my backlog.

Sooo

704 games

32% never played
12% unfinished
32% beaten
5% completed
19% won't play

Beaten and never played - perfectly balanced, as all things should be :)

And the game I’m playing now:

  • A Plague Tale: Innocence

    2 hours playtime

    3 of 35 achievements

I’m going to write in my broken english about most of the games I’ll finish, hope you don’t mind.

Welcome to the site, hope you enjoy your game also very surprised by how many games I noticed in your won’t play. Typically I don’t recognise the games or the ones I do I know are terrible but there’s a few popular ones there so it’s to bad you don’t want to play them. Hopefully your remaining games are better for you

I put there every game I played but didn’t finish and just get enough of it. So for more famous:
Antichamber - play to about half, get a bit too hard and I just got tired.
Bioshock - I have remastered version and I want to play that one (it should be on my “never played”)
Borderlands GOTY Enhanced - played through original. Don’t want to play again.
Guacamelee - same here - I have two version, I finished one, dropped the second
Condemned, Dead Space, FEAR, Layers of fear - I HATE horrors, so no, thanks
Hitman GO, Hotline Miami - bit too hard in the end. I cannot say i beat it. Same with Meat Boy
Just Cause 2 - I have 30-40 hours there. Finally got bored

Etc, etc. Basically it’s my place for “I played a lot, but got enough” and for my doubles.

I understand. For the ones I played but had enough of, I created an Essentially abandoned category. Only difference is that I set them to Unfinished instead of Won’t Play. For the ones where I’ve played another version, I have a Have played elsewhere / other version category. I set them to Unfinished, Beaten, or Completed based on how far I got in the other version.

Whatever works for you, works!

Welcome to the site! :D

Simple reason. I like the idea of challenges. I see you are challenging with both “never played” and “unfinished” category. If I ever participate, I don’t want to be challenged with those games.

Ah when I posted that I did consider you might’ve classed them like this where you played but just done with it. I just got my bioshock in beaten since I done the remastered so I didn’t end up with stuff like that and deponia making a big red mark on my profile

Blue Ϟ Lightning

Thats basically the same percentage of wont play as me and a quite fair reason. sad for terraria though

My thing is I also have a catagory rogue/multiplayer/endless where I put games without an end, ora multiplayer campaign/section I only play with other people, and roguelikes that while they technically have an end (binding of issac has a devil boss and yourself in these super far areas I’ve never been to etc) I mark as beaten after I’ve had enough of them.

also same as Trent I’ve just marked games I’ve beaten elsewhere/with a different version as beaten cause I can’t be bothered to replay them.
