Steam deck is a backlog killer
That statement is false
Sadly
This but 2D metroidvanias
Very accurate meme
Steam Deck is good… But DNF list is the real backlog killer, dump uninteresting games and move on.
Games on steam or whatever, what do people do when deciding to do this?
I’ve got categories/folders I add games to in the Steam client. I don’t really play any games outside Steam at all now with Linux on my desktop and the hassle of setting up other launchers.
-
Favourites (currently playing or due to play next)
-
Finished
-
Lost interest
-
Never (got as part of a bundle or freebie that I don’t intent to ever play)

My Steam Deck IS the backlog
Since I started !freegames@feddit.uk I’ve not spent a penny in the Steam sales, unfortunately my backlog is now about five times as long.
I’ve had steam for about 6 years now, and I’ve only bought one game for $0.99. I can’t even review games or make comments. lol
On the other hand, I have heroic launcher installed and it has over 85 games that I got for free from epic, gog and Amazon gaming. I have so many games that will last me a life time with the pace I play.
I sometimes buy games just because I watch videos of other people playing them, in order to support the developers.
Yes, that will be believable…
always seeking the first high of that one game that changed our life. and it never happens. so we try again. and again. and ooooh 90% off! i hate the genre, but it would be stupid not to take advantage
In some cases my 0 minutes played are because I bought it in Steam but had to go get a pirate version to play it in Linux (via Lutris and Wine rather than Steam and Proton) since the Steam version didn’t work in Linux but the pirate one did (probably something to do with the game’s own DRM, which in the pirate version has been cracked)
Which, IMHO, is more sad than just buying a game because it’s cheap and never actually getting around to playing it.
