Let's Be Real About Our Unplayed Steam Games

Kotaku - Look, I know how easy it is to buy something on sale. There's probably nothing I can say that will stop you from indulging in the yearly Steam summer sale. Still, I find that sale time is a good time to reflect on my PC gaming library—specifically, the tons of games I haven't played yet.

Software_Lover3959d ago (Edited 3959d ago )

I have atleast, ATLEAST 50 games I haven't played yet. I just started playing Deus Ex HR two weeks ago even though I have had it in my list since launch.

This is what a digital system should provide.

I haven't even started Dragon Age as of yet. I have Dragon Age Origins and Dragon Age 2. I dont know if they have changed anything, but when I got those I used the same keys to download the games from Origin also. Can you still do that (if anyone knows).

ThanatosDMC3959d ago

Dragon Age Origins + all the DLC is awesome. You should play it. Skip Dragon Age 2. Not worth your time if you like Origins. Try it if you dont like Origins.

Btw, Buyer Beware

Infestation: Survivor Stories on Steam is actually repackaged WarZ. The WarZ moderator has been banning people on Steam forums at a ridiculous rate for anyone who wrote anything negative about the game.

Al one of the Valve moderator came in to warn/review what the fuss is all about. Check out the Steam forums for the ridiculousness.

I usually use my brothers account, and he has about 25 games on there. Most of which he asn't played

Metro 2033 for example, I was the first to playit on his account and he's had it for ages.

I had to stop playingit though when you meet bourbon in the cave, he has a gun and is seen as a person who is good with his guns, but he doesnt retaliate when fired at WTF. The I had to stop plaing at that point, how can developers implement that?

Moncole3959d ago

I play most of the games I buy.

wishingW3L3958d ago

me too. I don't buy stuff just because there is a deal, that's the same as trowing money to the trash (and even worse if it's digital because you can't even re-sell it). I buy games that I want to play and that I know I I'll have the time to play.

FaSCoRP3959d ago

I believe the first comment is regarding a sales purchase, then you play it when you have the time, but at least you already got it cheap, to play whenever you want

MooseWI3959d ago

This is exactly my feeling. I have so many games from humble bundles like when I got Hotline Miami for $1 and it came with 4-5 other games that I didn't really want that I plan on playing later when I have the time. But $1 for hotline I wasn't going to pass up.

Bolts3959d ago

The chances of my PS4 library four years now coming near to half of what my Steam collection is today = zero.

Sony and MS have a lot of work to do.

AbortMission3959d ago

Having a big game library on Steam that you don't even bother to play LOL

ps3_pwns3958d ago

yep I said pc gamers don't play many if not any of there games in another article and they gave me disagrees because its true. they have low attention spans and fap all day. they aren't gamers they are elitists

ps3_pwns3958d ago

no they just rather have you play and enjoy the games you buy so there will be more people playing online and discussing the games like you supposed to do when you buy a game. play it. this is gaming this aint no baseball card collection chumps.

Should have happened a long time ago. People wanting refunds after 50 hours in game.

fsfsxii16d ago

Pc gamers will take this as an excuse to pirate things

KyRo16d ago

I'm not sure why you're getting disgrees. Whilst not all PC gamers are petty, an awful lot of them are lol

Crows9016d ago

Entirely untrue. Not any more petty than console gamers. The only large difference is console gamers don't have much of a choice.

Michiel198916d ago

Not sure why you're getting agrees. an awful lot of console gamers are overemotional twinks ready to go to war over a plastic box, I'll take being a pc gamer then.

Speaking about overgeneralizing much.

Nooderus15d ago

"X" type of gamer conversations are cringe

qalpha16d ago

Daily reminder that 'TheGamer' is a corporate-generated, anti-gamer, anti-consumer, clickbait web site. They are mostly A.I. generated articles that villainize gamers. They provide nothing positive and actively try to provoke and divide the community through extreme view points and politics. Do not give them any clicks.

Inverno16d ago

Only scumbags? As if people don't play their games on console put in the most amount of hours and return it to GameStop and trade it in for another game. But also how many people are actually do this? And what games have been allowed to be refunded?

DustMan16d ago

You can refund any game you've purchased as long as it hasn't been longer than two weeks, and you've played less than 2 hours. I wish they would change it to 3 hours because some RPG's have so much exposition that you may only get an hour total of complete gameplay. That's my only knock on it. I've refunded plenty of stuff I was just curious to try. I typically stay away from Early Access titles which are the only ones affected by this policy change.

Inverno16d ago

Apparently early access doesn't count, only complete games with a play early preorder bonus.

Gaming4Life198116d ago

I definitely know if I want a refund in 2 hours.

SegaSaturn66916d ago

I never liked refunding anything. Even if a film is bad, i dont want my money back. Sometimes things just aren't for me, and it's not the creator's fault necessarily.

Gaming4Life198116d ago

I feel you and i have never walked out on a bad movie cause I payed my money. I also don't refund games cause I'm a gamer and I know what to buy lol. I think having a digital refund is great.
