Wow am I the only gamer who had no idea you could organise games into groups in steam? It never even occurred to me to look for this feature
i had them organised once upon a time but then i switched laptops and the categories didn't transfer so i just, never did that again
same happened to me, super annoying.
there's third party tools that seem to be able to back up your categories and restore them, so for anyone who's put an effort into the categories and doesn't want it to disappear, look into it. personally i didn't trust these third party tools enough, so now i only have automated categories, and favorites for the stuff i care about right now.
Yeah seriously the only two categories I have are favorites (games that are installed), and everything else (games that aren't installed).
You can even sort them conditionally, so I have a folder with games I haven't played and it updates automatically
I bet that number usually only goes up
Perhaps
