discussion How does everyone keep track of all the games you've played?

[MidniteLyfe]

When I try out a game, I make sure to index it in different notepads depending on if I have no interest in the game, a "meh" category, and finally an active update one.

I always make sure that I include the latest version, where I found it, and maybe some notes to help me remember what it was about.

What about everyone else? What do you all do, if anything?

I just check latest updates if I remember it probably it's good but if not it's bad. I also remember those insanely bad ones.

Impossible that would be like remembering every song or band i have listened to, every game i played, Every book i read or movie i watched. Some immediately come to mind most don't.

At least I lost it with my notepad.
I just remembered that Ren'Py can check the save folder.

If I like a game, and want to play it in the future, I leave the folder it was in (with version number in the name) and sometimes a screengrab of the menu screen (or whatever has the best image of the characters) and nuke all the actual gameplay files so I'm not taking up too much space. then, every once in awhile I check on games that I liked if I don't randomly see them come across an updates feed.

just:
name: last version played
If it was really good or really stank I'll remember it so that's all I really need.
Super stinkers I don't list.

I don't. Which means sometimes i download updates for games I've tried and disliked. after a few times I start remembering what games to avoid though. Unless there's like 6 months between updates

Should I say it or should I show it?

 

[mykneegrows]

i use a notepad and type the game name and last version i played. and i usually add a small note at the end in brackets. ie:
Big_Brother_v0.13.0.007 [ABANDONED]

 

[Aryanblood777]

I personally keep 2 text documents one for normal games and one for petite games. But I only list the name and version I played and change the font to bold for very good games, italic for terrible or abandoned games and normal font for rest of the games.

 

[kewinocun]

I don't even try for everything. I keep track of the good ones that I'm waiting for an update for by deleting all the files except the saves and keeping the folder name and version number

 

[Shawnchapp]

i just have a game folder with them all

I have a notepad with the completed games and a folder with screenshots of nice scenes or just those last ones when the game shows everyone together or pregnant. For the ongoing ones I just watch the thread and see if it appears on the latest updates. Otherwise, just checking my watched threads every few months. Every thread has the date of the lastest update, so it's not hard to remember that you haven't played it. At least for me

F95Checker, it's not only keeps track of 95 games, but also works great to keep database of all games from all other sites (although not automatic in this case, have to do it by hand)

If you think it's worth showing off, lol, then do it

 

[User_67325]

i track VNs on VNDB, anything not on there I just don't track because lazy

 

[Kriso068]

i don't keep track, I remembered the game I played

 

[Peter S]

My memory, as simple as that... If I don't remember a game, it's that it wasn't suited enough for my taste, so I don't have to keep track of it ^^
