Steam

I dont.

I used to categorize manually, finished games going into beaten-replayable, beaten-100%, beaten-done playing, open-done with, etc.

Dynamic Libraries are helpful for sorting, but not a replacement for manual categories. A major down side of the dynamic library feature is thst it relies on the game page to be accurate to the games feature set. Often there are games that get a tag or feature thst is just false. This does not a good tool make.

I mark the games I really like as favourites and have the option to show only the installed games turned on, that's it. I don't have time, will nor need to put everything into different categories.

Unsorted, favorites, beaten games, and a little category I call "shit games I'll never play again".

That keeps it organized enough and makes sure I remember which games I have played and hated so I don't bother with them again.

I sort by recently played and installed, so whatever I played or bought most recently is at the top, and no uninstalled games show up.

Um, alphabetically?

I split mine into a few categories:

• Backlog
• Playing
• Multiplayer
• Completed
• Junk (Usually filler from bundles)

I only keep the playing list expanded and relatively small to avoid choice paralysis.

I have my Steam Library organized by genre. FPS, RPG, RTS, ect. Then I have a backlog category where I put the games I know I want to get around to playing eventually and a Completed category for games that I've finished and am probably not going to go back to.

games beaten, and games not beaten. Simply like that

I honestly didn't even know you could. With just over 100 games I've never felt the need to though, I can wade through them pretty easily and remember what I have.

I add games I plan to play or might play in the coming year(s) to favorites and then collapse the non-favorites tab.

There's the main 'folder/category/thing' every game is added to by default, one for favorites that's already built into Steam, and two more I added called "meh" and "shit".

The main folder acts as my unsorted/unplayed category, and Favorites/Meh/Shit covers pretty much everything else.

I have 4 main collections. I have favorites, multiplayer games that I play with friends, games that I have yet to finish but do plan on playing, and then games that I've finished. The unsorted stuff are games that I don't plan on playing. Maybe I'll get to the unsorted stuff someday, but not for the near future.

It's simple enough for me to understand and manage.

Favorites, Installed, Completed, Multiplayer, Will not play for a while

I use playnite

In my case, it's even worse due to using other services too. What I end up doing is noting everything on digital sheets like LibreOffice, and trying to organize in a way that makes sense.

Not doing it

I've got about two dozen collections dedicated to various single store tags, or combinations of tags, most of them genres, but a few like "multiplayer" "co-op", etc.

I've never grouped them based on my opinion of them, but I do like that idea, and may start doing it now.

For the most part, I don't. I do have two custom filters tho. One for classic FPS (IE "boomer shooters") and one for Fromsoft games.

I sort by the 2 games I play and the a section for all the games I brought, never played or downloaded.

I sort by last played. Sometimes by user score if I feel like trying something I've had but haven't played yet.

I organize by game release year. Not when it was released on steam or even PC but whenever that game was initially released on any platform. From 1997 to 2023.

I put it in respective collections:

• ToDo
• Completed
• Gold & Completed
• Sim
• Casual
• Local Multiplayer ...
