do you find it difficult to get into games? I’ve got Epic Games and Steam Games libraries chock-full of classic top-tier games along with many other newer games like Stray or 2077, and a bunch of indie titles. I just can’t be bothered to download and install them, much less try to get into the characters and storylines. Used to be I couldn’t wait to see what happened in the story, what new items you could collect, what new worlds the developers had created. Not anymore. I return to playing the same franchise for a quick FPS match or three and then I’m done.

Old man with only, compared to you, 394 titles in the steam library.

I had a similar experience.

My solution was to categorize my steam library with custom categories.

The most important category is the "Trash" category to remove the "clutter". "Dead" games like Artifact and trash from bundles from steam sales.

Now I have my library sorted and want for example to play a soulslike I just look into my library in the category "soulslike" and can choose from the games I've sorted into the category.

I wish this would also be possible for streaming platforms as their standard categories are usually redundant to give you the feeling that their library is bigger than it actually is.
