▲ 255 ▼ Yep, I actually own 7,255 games on Steam. I’ve played 23% of my library. I regret nothing.

Because it’s important that they’re played. Because every game is a story, a world, a moment in time crafted by someone who cared enough to create it. Because each one teaches me something new—about design, about culture, about myself. Because in a sea of pixels, there’s magic waiting to be found. And because, honestly? Sometimes I just want to escape, explore, and lose myself in different worlds. So yeah. I own thousands of games, and I’ll keep playing them.

Or “has been loaded at least once”? permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] atomicpoet@lemmy.world [S] 17 points 1 year ago (1 child) Unapologetically, I’m a non-completionist. Only complete the games you’re compelled to complete. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 point 1 year ago Exactly. I have something like 10-20 "complete" games because they either give 100% completion for rolling credits or I really enjoyed the game and ended up completing the achievements anyway. Of the rest, I've probably rolled credits on 80% of my "played" games, because sometimes I just lose interest before I reach the end, while still enjoying my time w/ it. Games should be fun, and if they stop being fun, move on. permalink fedilink source parent [–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 1 point 1 year ago* They said they "played" 23% of the games, not "completed." permalink fedilink source parent
