How many of those have you played for more than a few hours?

I have a friend on Steam who has like 800 games and he's only played like 150 of them. The rest he has ZERO play time in, and I imagine this is the case for most people with a lot of games.

OP seriously though, how many of those have you actually played. I wouldn't be surprised if you told me you've only played maybe 200-300 of those at best.

now put your steamid into steamdb and post your not played percentage, i bet its over 60%

I've made a more grave mistake.
And I have enough cards to go to 70, just waiting for summer sale to turn them in.
Someone please help ;_;

i can understand buying cards and shit for the games you really enjoyed, but if you just buy games for card drops to level your steambook page then ... yeah.

I run IdleMaster a lot of the time so that'll skew my percentage

so you buy games to not play them and download a program to create the illusion on your profile that you do play games?

No I sell the cards and invest that money in more games

Meanwhile i have 11
Sucks ass to be poor

>9 reviews
Is this how many you have written? If so, why?

jokes on you i have only 2 ;_;

This is why digital is bad.

>you own none of these games
>zero resale value for collectors
>played less than 10% most likely
>could have spent that on a better rig, or literally anything else

JUST

I mean, are there even 1000 ESSENTIAL must play games out there? ON STEAM? theres barely 50

How do you make a profit?
Do you just buy games you actually want to play with the money you make?
Or is this a positive feedback loop where you JUST buy game, get cards, sell cards, buy game, on and on.

Basically, I'm asking if you actually buy and play games every once in a while with the money you make.

Nah, I just have a toaster laptop. I normally play games on my Wii U and Vita instead

I wish I was kidding

OP, what kind of games do you even buy?

Lots of ones at about 15-25p each. You make your money back off the cards they drop

>Lots of ones at about 15-25p each
Where?

I have a buffer of about 10 games.

Any more than that, don't buy new games. Anywhere from 3-8 games in the tank, I go shopping.

Good way to combat Steam's consumerist and PC emulation hoarding tendencies. Keeps you incentivized to play new games too. You don't want to be one of those guys that has anywhere from 500 to 10000 hours in a single multiplayer game and hasn't played anything else.

Here's some spoonfeeding for you

PERSONAL
RESPONSIBILITY

Already have those games. When's the next cycle for

>not having at a least 5k games by now
What's wrong with you?

Go to reddit[/spoiler

I got rocket leauge, guns of icarus online, streamline, napoleon war total collection and a few other games from giveaways there

ill stop at 1k

It's alright, every ten levels you get more booster packs. If you craft cheap medals you end up earning some cash per year.

...

No, I have.

What game..?

I'll take the bait, wat gaem

What did they mean by this?

The worst thing about this image is that you bought VTMB.

I also bought ToEE, Arcanum, and Bloodlines again when Troika was still alive and in physical copies, and double dipped on Arcanum and Bloodlines on Steam and I would do the same if they got ToEE on there. 1v1 me irl

>all these accounts with 1k+ games

How and WHY??

You supported them when they were alive and shat on their graves when they died.

That evens out to nothing, just like your existence.

Bad Rats. I have mild Austism.

I got like 30 in my first week with the eidos anthology bundle for under $30.

>and shat on their graves when they died.

You're that guy who goes into BG threads and conveniently remembers things after people post them.

I have about 1500 games. Every three months I spend a week playing from 1 to 60 minutes every game that I haven't touched yet.

At least 1400 are in the Buyer's Remorse category.

old fag here. I signed up for Steam five days after it was made available to the public.

And you're that guy who bought VTMB after Activision slaughtered the studio and profiteered off the company's post closure patch work, loser.

I've considered doing that, but in the end I just leave everything unsorted except for my CYOA games. It's easier for me to just start typing a game's title to reach it rather than going through lists, the only reason the CYOA list is handy is because there are a fuckton of them, they're small so I don't remember the names of 90% of them off the top of my head, and unlike with most genres if I'm in the mood to play a CYOA that means a really limited thing, more than "I want to play a shooter" or "I want to play an RTS".

Picks or didn't happen

PROVE IT FAGGOT

Just under 7 years and I'm almost at 100 games.

I'm right there with you bro

at this point, I buy games for the dopamine rush

>You don't want to be one of those guys that has anywhere from 500 to 10000 hours in a single multiplayer game and hasn't played anything else.
dont you judge me you slag

I wish there was an easy way to mass sell them.

How?
Why?

I secretly want to join the 1k club

How: Bundles
Why: You like collecting

I used to buy bundles full of garbage just for the +1s. Didn't care if it was all hidden object games, 15 games for $1 got my number higher. I actually stopped a couple years ago though. When I first go into it bundle garbage at least might be something I would play an hour or two and be lightly amused by, but with greenlight it got so bad that I never would even want to install most of it, and once I broke that habit I stopped buying cheap games just for shits and giggles.

I still buy vaguely interesting stuff for cheap, and still buy bundles on the occasional time they've got stuff I'm interested in, but I skip the vast majority now.

If you want to know where the cheap garbage is, go look at Groupees, Indie Gala, Bundlestars, Humble Bundle. I wouldn't really recommend doing it but if you wanna get +1ing that's where you start.

I have over 500 games but 80% of it is bundleshit and free giveaway stuff that I get only for cards and steam level

You can pad that list to fuck by adding all the free games on steam.
Sadly valve recently introduced a limit to free game activation much like paid games. You can activate like maybe 30 before being locked for half an hour, I dunno.
steamdb.info/search/?a=app_keynames&type=-1&keyname=243&operator=3&keyvalue=1
Keep this tab open also:
reddit.com/r/FreeGamesOnSteam/new/
And then actually spend money on game bundles. Google indiegala, humble, groupees, dailyindiegame.

>I wouldn't really recommend doing it
Why?

Anyway, thanks for the tips, anons.

>"""""collecting""""" Steam """"""games"""""

haha, holy shit. I didn't think people this retarded exist.

you don't own a single one of those games

Also idle your steam trading cards, sell them in the market and use that money to buy more games. It's a never ending cycle of wasting money.

also how does this steamdb thing work? i installed pebble extreme, uninstalled it, but it never +1 into my account

'cause it's not particularly worth it. You can recoup some of your losses by auto-farming cards and then auto-selling them, but even then you're just turning real money into Steam scrip. Just buying stuff you're interested in is a far better way to go than just buying complete garbage to inflate your number.

>tfw I did this

I'm so sorry, I didn't know

You don't have to install it. Just press esc when it asks to install. It will remain in your account.
And barring few exceptions like Heroine's Quest it doesn't give real +1s that show on your steam profile. They do show on steamdb and on your licenses.

Did you come to this realization after hitting 1k+ Steam games?

You just don't understand user

The convenience...it's too nice

3k+ Steam games.

Do you regret it at all? Fuck, I just spent $40 on 80 garbage indie games I'll never play. Did I get memed? Is this how drug addictions start?

Wow I genuinely pirated and played that back in the day.

No, that's how you notice they started long ago, and the addiction is more like smoking, which doesn't even give you a solid high but still costs you an arm and a leg, eventually literally.

Yeah you did OP. You should never write reviews, nobody actually reads them.

Only a little bit, it's why I'm telling that user that it's not worth doing. I don't completely regret it because I've always been a grubby game hoarder, I'd dig through bargain bins and look at jewelcase-only releases in the dark times before Steam, it's just that the games have gotten so shitty lately that you're not getting anything BUT the +1s for a lot of shit.

But if you haven't got a big Steam account I would easily say shit like Humble monthly is worth it. Nothing in there has been complete irredeemable garbage yet except for some of the "Humble bonuses" which don't really count. Even if you get some games that normally wouldn't be your bag they're usually decent enough quality that they'd be worth taking a look at. Part of the fun of having a big Steam library is just trying shit out and occasionally finding things you like that you didn't think you would.

> 2855
> 52% not played

I'm alright with this
most of the games not played are expansions to old games so not so much remorse

I was actually doing pretty good before getting addicted back to World of Warcraft

My Steam account has 360 games right now, and I have almost all the games I want. I don't even know how this 1000+ game count appealed to me.

Whenever I want a game, I just buy it. Money's not really an issue. It's just that I have an addictive personality, and it's probably best for me to not get into this +1 game addiction.

This is my plan actually. I'm currently getting 1 booster a week at level 50 with some ~200 eligible games.

Make way, you plebs

>HE BOUGHT DLC 553 TIMES

Well sometimes you get a whole bunch of crap just thrown in. The Tomb Raider bundle threw in like a good 20 DLC thingies for the 2013 game alone.

What are you going to do with all those cards

So Steam itself is a game?
I never understand why people find this fun. I use Steam and have like 50 games but never cared about cards or levels

> Sell cards
> Get money
> Buy gayms
Let them waste their money.

See

That's all free shit though.
It's chinese MMO farming tier but probably doesn't leave as much money and also it's in steam wallet.

>also it's in steam wallet
So what's the problem? You can still buy vidya on Steam with it

How much profit do you make after electricity/bot costs?

better to buy csgo skins with it and cash out in real life

i'm doing my part

>2017
>Not graciously allowing your parents to buy your electricity

INFORMATION IS FREE

It takes 250 fucking hours to 100% that game?

Hey fags, here's a steam code for some game (probably trash) I already have, grab it, but tell me what is was.

much longer if you're not a 2hu god, rabiribi has a FUCKload of content

Defcon.

Uh, this thing.

store.steampowered.com/app/1520/

Thanks, user

Landlord pays electricity
And I'm currently only small enough to break even with bot cost.
Games for bots are free if you know where to look.

It's pretty good, it's by the Darwinia guys. I mean not amazing. I'm surprised there's still a community for it but then I'm pretty sure Darwinia does too and that game is fucking single-player.

>but if you just buy games for card drops to level your steambook page then ... yeah.
Well it depends, with more levels come more open friend slots, so if say, you're a streamer who has a lot of fans wanting to add you, or are actually popular enough to need all the friend slots, it gives you more. beyond that though, yeah. It's useless.
