discussion Would it be better to hunt down countless games first or finish a game before hunting for more?

Is brave actually as anonymous as they claim?

I wouldn't bank on it. They claim to "de-Google" a lot of it, but your data is still going to them. You have no real shot at being anonymous without a lot of hassle and, eventually, you gotta trust somebody. You won't even find anything with a Google search and, unfortunately most of the good alternatives to Google still rely on it to serve results. You may just not have your search results sent to Google itself.

Brave search might as well not even exist unless you're looking for very common information.

impossible not to hunt down new games XD, every time i go searching for updates there is a new one that caught my attention

 

[akmad95]

Do what you want to do man

 

[tyktamsyl]

I can’t really help you, I also do this. I just get too excited seeing all the cool stories everyone has come up with, that i download them so I can play them at a whims notice.

 

[MattShizzle]

Hunt down, given the vast majority you'll be waiting months for the next update many times before finishing one.

For me it depends. If there have been a bunch of games that I like that recently updated I'll get those all at once, but generally I try to find 1 or 2 good new games to play through at a time.

I like to have several games to choose from, but once chosen it is better to finish it or you can lose momentum, it even happened to me with RDR2, I had to leave it for a reason and then I didn't feel like playing it until a lot of time had passed, then I started from scratch and played it in one go, it was a good game, but I'm a little inconsistent so I better take advantage of the impulses

Given the length of updates, I always prefer to have several games in reserve.

 

[Aba]

finish a game first. Why push it

 

[Rogaldorn777]

I'm a hoarder when it comes to things like this. Can't help myself. 5tb hdd already full.

Holy fuck! That has to be almost everything, including already finished ones.

I download a few and play all of them but I mostly don't finish those

 

[Cougar18]

Find them all now, play them at your leisure

 

[spilek]

i played 5% of games i thought I would play, so much time spended on hunting, little on consuming

My drive is full of games that I'm "totally going to get to some day, I swear". To the point that it's hard to find space for the new ones that push them back down the backlog...

My issue is I think if I delete them I'll end up forgetting they exist and not playing them at all. Which...really wouldn't change much, come to think of it.

 

[El Buho]

I have a terrible habit of constantly hunting down new games to download before completing the current game I'm playing. How bout you guys?

I think its time for a family intervention.

 

[dackma]

It would be better to finish a game before starting a new one but, for that, you would have to find a finished game.

Not many of those around.

Every now and again, I go through my collection of games I've downloaded, but never played. Anything more than six months old gets deleted.

I'm tracking six games. All of them are at different levels of the development process. As soon as an update comes out, I go through it. In between, I read, stroll around (I'm on vacation, taking a break from city life), watch movies, do some cooking. And those 6 games are more than enough for me. In addition, updates are released slowly, every 2-4 months, you can pass them in 30-40 minutes at most. I don't wait for projects to be completed (there is a risk of not getting completed version).

I'd consider doing it that way, but every so often I scroll through and see a game that, upon checking into it again, makes me go, "Wait, why did I not play this one right when it was downloaded, again?"

Been trying to get through the higher GB games, just to clear things out a bit more, but they also tend to take longer, and the space fills up with smaller games in the meantime. And then I end up getting sidetracked by either a different game or forgetting it because of RL stuff. Usually manage to remember delete things if I actually unpack them, though, since the empty folder can also remind me they exist.
