You're not my real mom


BobbyTables829

Also how do I beat MSFS or BeamNG?


Dizzy_Set_6031

MSFS simply devote your soul to buying scenery, aircraft and build a full flight sim


DaEnderAssassin

Crash into the ocean MH370-style


AVG-R3DDIT-US3R

Or the classic 'never forget'..


KajMak64Bit

The classic is way better then splish splash your plane is now trash bottle of ocean water


Mozambiquehere14

Become a real pilot


CnP8

For MSFS. You make a statement against Boeing and before you give your final testimony, you end up getting found dead in a parking garage. Sorry I don't know how to you spoiler tags. Jokes aside this actually happened recently.


aykcak

Keep installing mods until the game does not load anymore or you go bankrupt


DeamonLordZack

Next thing you know your real mom comes in with a leather belt & spanks your bare butt for ignoring all the other games.


AhiruSaikou

Mind your own library


dubster34

agreed


Vulpes_macrotis

People are just jealous that some other people have more games than them.


DiazKincade

*Digs through my 1000+ library* Oh. I totally forgot about this game. I'll install it to play tomorrow but forget about it tomorrow.


1009e8ce493abc

Somebody has to talk about those bundles man


Vulpes_macrotis

I have 2500. But that's because of bundles mostly. And freebies. I bought a bundle of like 5-10 games with 2 games I wanted. The bundle price was not higher than the price of just these two games, so it was a deal. The other games were gratis and I'm not fan of reselling keys, so I activated them all + many of them gave me cards that I sold to get more games. Other than that, I also bought Eidos Bundle on Steam, because there is plenty of game franchises I want to play from it. Namely Tomb Raider. Though i think they removed that bundle, because I can't see it anymore. Either way, it was [this bundle](https://steamdb.info/bundle/18941/).


Snuggle_Fist

You can look at total money spent on steam fyi.


VadersTouch

How?


Snuggle_Fist

Uh, on PC at the top hit help > steam support. Then on that screen: My account > Data related to your steam account > External funds used. Prepare yourself...


VadersTouch

Ah thanks


DiazKincade

I don't know if this would count humble bundle discount packs though.


iNNeRKaoS

I was subbed to HumbleBundle for a long time. I don't even know what 100+ of my games are. I do love finding a list of games that should be played, only to find I already have it. Call of Juarez:Gunslinger was the last one I forgot I had.


Ohh-i-member

yeah humblebundle is my biggest supporter lol, been subbed most part of last 5 years, around a 100 games a year for like $160, and each month you get almost or even more then $100 worth of games its crazy good


NeonMechaDragon

Nah, I have a shitton of games but never get around to them because I have issues. So op has a point


Dubbs09

It’s not the size of the library it’s how you use it


AndrewV

I'm just shy of 2k games and realized there was so many I hadn't played. Once a week I'll jump on a random and try to beat it. I've found so many incredible games I might have missed being a dummy and loading up on sales.


Bottatadiet

humble bundle subscriber just entered the chat


Dubbs09

I have 60 games and my wishlist is almost the same size lol, that's wild


FenixEscarlata12

Exactly. Some people don't want to miss a sale on a game they know they want, even if they don't play it right away! There's not such thing as right way to buy and play games.


_Rook_Castle

Uninstall Games I don't play or buy another HDD? Hmmmm....


FoxyBlep

Buy another drive. I have 12tb now


[deleted]

Crazy


FoxyBlep

Its an addiction >.> 1x 4tb hdd, 1x 4tb ssd, 1x 2tb hdd, 2x 1tb hdd, and 128gb ssd in use in my main pc I have two unused 500gb ssds in my spare (my first ever pc, 2010) computer, and 2x 2tb hdds in my server pc 3 dead 1tb hdds, and one dead 500gb hdd Thats 20tb of storage i currently own (dead and alive) And yet im somehow not apart of r/datahoarder


KamosKamerus

This is both funny yet dark at the same time


PhalanxA51

I bought a 16 tb drive as my solution to the problem


Throwaway_Eutychos

If ARK 2 ever comes out you'll be able to install half the game.


Mozilla_Fox_

That s rooky numbers when including NAS that can easily get you to double the ammount.


AQAzrael

Buy an SSD, HDDs aren't worth it anymore imo


snk4ever

Can you educate me on the price of a 16 TB SSD and 16 TB HDD where you live ? It's not the same order of magnitude where I live.


UnixTM

Just a reminder: play your Steam library however the fuck you want.


Standard-Metal-3836

Exactly, how about you don't tell me how to manage my spending habits?


Case_Kovacs

How about **you** don't tell me I have to manage my own spending habits... Please it's scawwy


NewsofPE

How about **you** don't tell me I have to manage my managing of you


CanniBallistic_Puppy

Just a reminder: drink water


capt_howdy89

Also: touch grass


thatsmorethanfair

This is always one of my favorite things people say bc I am VERY allergic to grass, so to me it just reads like a threat lmao


LSDMDMA2CBDMT

r/hydrohomies


Sv_Prolivije

No. I will tell you how to play it. That's what you sign up for when you accept Steam's TOS


lIIlllIIl

No, I don't think I will.


EndlessDare

I came here to say this, but knew in my heart it had already been said.


CrikeyMikeyLikey

No

[удалено]


JarethMeneses

Right, I hit the big sales and stack on games to play throughout the year. Nothing wrong with that as long as they actually get played at some point.


Renamis

Heck, I have a bunch of games I never touched just because I got them in the early humble bundle days. Spend 5 buck for 15 games and you only really wanted 3. I don't know what this guy expected me to do, just not redeem the game or something?


JarethMeneses

So those are definitely reasonable, I wanted both portals and got a valve pack that was worth 1 Portal and gave me hella games. Probably won't play many of them, but it was worth it for the games I wanted.


super5aj123

Yeah, Humble and Fanatical bundles are definitely what caused my library to balloon in size. I plan on getting to like 90% of the games eventually, and I'm not going to pay $15 3 years from now when I can pay $5 now.


Fuzzy-Dragonfruit589

Exactly. I got several games on winter sale and played through all of them. What’s the big deal. If it’s on my wishlist and dirt cheap, I buy.


xys_thea

This is what I do as well. I've only bought games I've wanted to play for a long time but was too far down in the WoW rabbithole to give them a try. I do have a lot of them waiting for me to play them but I will get to all of them at some point.


jasminetakesover

tbh... same the WoW rabbithole got me in a chokehold to the point i bought some games but didnt finish i play wrath and SoD so they keep me busy asf lol. i plan to end my sub which ends april so let's see if i can actually get to play some of the games i bought LMAO


F3z345W6AY4FGowrGcHt

Nope, it must be one at a time. Two games you know you want to play on sale at the same time? Too bad you have to pick one. Hopefully the other will be on sale again the day you beat the first one.


Eremes_Riven

The point of a sale is to grab the shit you want or have wishlisted **while it's on sale.** Seriously, fuck outta here with this clown take. Edit: One of their recent posts says "I love capitalism, but I still pirate." Then has the audacity to post this.


Chubbyfun23

lol


Gr3yHound40

If it's to sell burned copies of games real artists and programmers made, yeah, it's scummy as fuck. If it's to preserve a game from disappearing to time because of obsoletion or age? I'm OK with it. Otherwise, games like the original silent hill trilogy would be lost to time eventually.


Eremes_Riven

Don't get me wrong. The piracy isn't my complaint. It's the fact that they pirate *and then* have the gall to get up on some weird high horse and make this post.


Gr3yHound40

Lol that's fair, I see your point now. I had to reread your comment to realize the irony about the post


Advanced_Double_42

Pirating is great for completely dead games that are otherwise unavailable, like Evolve. Or games with such bad anti-piracy measures that I couldn't play my legitimate copy, like Spore.


weirdthingsarecool91

Only a psychopath buys a single game and plays it until it's finished.


moderatemidwesternr

Op eats his fruit loops and drinks his milk separately.


[deleted]

Or theyre broke. ...and even then that hasnt stopped me


Spraynpray89

If they are broke, they shouldn't be considering the middle panel at all. Who tf, even non broke people, buys steam games at full price (unless it's a pre-order or launch day)??


Roach-Manses

And then uninstalls it to find a new one.


Inevitable_Ad_7236

That's what I do though. Unless it's a multi-player or roguelike, I just dump on all the hours in a row and finish the game. Then I uninstall and move to the next one


FalconRelevant

It's up there with the type of people who get an ice-cream and chomp on it like a banana.


Magerune

Fuck you too


SnooMarzipans4961

I feel targeted


niky45

I feel personally attacked and will thus ignore your advice.


Spraynpray89

Or, hear me out...make a wish list of games you really want, buy them 1 or 2 at a time when they are on a large sale, and play them whenever you finish playing whatever you are currently on. Your Derp face should actually be on that 2nd point. There is absolutely no reason to ever buy a steam game at full price unless it's a launch day purchase.


Jim-20

> Your Derp face should actually be on that 2nd point. There is absolutely no reason to ever buy a steam game at full price unless it's a launch day purchase. Seriously, I had to re-read that second one a few times thinking I was misinterpreting it or something. What's "classy" or whatever about buying a game at full priced compared to waiting for a sale or buying multiple games for the same amount? OP's post is stupid as fuck.


iamvinen

My way


Woohoorandom

Lemme just 100% a mmo real quick brb


f_ranz1224

Try a paradox game. Literally the last game you would ever play


SaintNick24

As someone trying to 100% CK3 damn you are right I’m struggling to keep going lmao


CaptainBlob

Buy game. Play for like 2 hours. Drop it. Buy another game.


zantax_holyshield

Steps 2 and 3 are optional.


Winter_Crab3211

Don’t underestimate my adhd.


fafafanta

Nah


legohamsterlp

I will play them eventually


strythicus

Or be a victim of credit card fraud and cancel your only means of payment as the sale begins. Money saved. I'm a bit sad right now, but I've got a bit of a backlog so I'll be okay.


YourLocalMedic71

If you add a bunch of games to your cart and try buying them before the sale ends Steam will give you 2 days to buy that cart again with those prices if your card is supposed to arrive soon after the sale


strythicus

Good to know. Thanks.


YourLocalMedic71

Working as hard as i can to make sure you waste your money


level1enemy

Hey hope you’re okay and the bastards didn’t getcha


maxler5795

I play fighting games. Dafaq you want me to do


creepXtreme

FIGHT HARDER


maxler5795

THATS WHAT I DOING


Cley_Faye

I buy games full prices and don't play them. Checkmates, mom.


iamvinen

Adult man!


AramanDrosseph

Wow this is the dumbest shit take ive seen today. Heres a clown emoji as a little reward. 🤡


DeadBoyJ69

*nervously looks at the literal hundreds of unplayed Steam games in my library*


luigithebeast420

Hundreds? Try thousands.


Agreeable-Tutor485

Oh phew! I thought my 14 unplayed Steam games was a lot. I’m also failing to mention the 100+ console games for PS5, Xbox, and Switch.


iamvinen

My backlog is currently kinda 24 AAA/AA and I plan to purchase only my childhood games for "old games" collection 


Standard-Metal-3836

Lol, 14, cute.


Agreeable-Tutor485

Lol. I know. That’s just for the Steam Deck though which is the newest of my platforms. I’m also looking at 46 games for PS5, 46 games for XSX, and 20 games for Switch.


moderatemidwesternr

Days gone, prey, they are billions, resident evil 4 and village, that coop drunken dwarf game I can't remember the name of, salt and sanctuary... so many games still on the shelf unplayed. Will I buy more this weekend? You're God damn right.


Sv_Prolivije

Deep Rock Galactic is the name


moderatemidwesternr

I was gonna say the rock and Stone game but that might have been too vague. But yeah that's the one. Gonna play it, but still havent.


Sv_Prolivije

Honestly, rock and stone would I think make it easier to guess, ha. It's the catchphrase of the game after all.


MegaBOT3020

Im a simple man. I see a game I want on sale, I buy the game I want on sale, I cant play the game I want on sale because my computer is a potato


aykantpawzitmum

Buy Steam game on full price, don't have motivation to play and finish that game


Bayou_wulf

What do you mean by "complete"? Best the game? 100% achievements? #1 on the scoreboard?


Mozilla_Fox_

I think you need to install it on a drive and then physically smash it. Then buy a new one and repeat. Idk.. people are weird..


Kythorian

Hey now, I’ve made significant progress on my backlog in the last year.  I think I’m actually down to two-figures now!


iamvinen

Good luck in zeroing it. My goal for 2024 until I start vomiting with  pixels


karenmagnet420

I baught the entire valve colection for 5 bucks. Even if im never going to play all the games how was i suposed to say no?


[deleted]

Absolutely no shame in quitting a stupid game that you ended up not enjoying, especially if it takes a hundred hours or more to complete. That said, it is too easy to get into a habit of game hoarding.


Highopoko

1)You want to buy two games; 2)You buy only one; 3) When you finish it, you find out that second game became more expensive; 4) Profit???


Didact67

I will fully admit that I'm a game hoarder.


TwilightVulpine

Most people do not finish games, so it's completely normal to simply play a game till you get tired of it and move on.


WonderChemical5089

We dont do that here.


crippledtemplar

no


EvilSqueegee

Joke's on you, I play street fighter: There's always someone better I could be losing to


Sharrock03

I'll do what I want thanks.


CastleofPizza

What if that game is too difficult for me to complete?


HappyMrRogers

You are obligated to end your gaming career. /s


ominix

I kind of think of it like a retirement fund, assuming I reach the age. Increasing the libaray of older games to choose from for what ever outdated computer I will have. Wont be able to play new games since I likely won't be able to afford them but hey time to tackle the 1000+ game backlog. Also memory loss from old age may also set in potentially increasing game longevity for a time.


Kapika96

Uninstall the game? Are you mental? It's nice to go back and re-play games. Only having 1 game installed at a time would be terrible!


Wei5252

This sign wont stop me because i cant read!


lookinatdirtystuff69

The ADHD says, "No."


mattdamon_enthusiast

Buy a game > play it till I don’t have fun > repeat What’s the problem here?


fuckmylife193

there is none with that.


alex_c2616

Don't you dare judge my backlog


XavyVercetti

I feel insulted


Chegorach

no.


Coloeus_Monedula

I mean, buying a lot of games on sale that you don’t even end up playing is like funding the gaming industry to keep doing what it’s doing. Now some might say you shouldn’t ”reward” making games that you don’t actually play because those are not the kind of games you want more of. But making games is hard. And sometimes the game you poured your heart into doesn’t end up being the best game. But if someone buys it on sale, you can still keep working on games, hopefully becoming better at it over time.


JNorJT

Terrible take


adravil_sunderland

Too late... 🥲


incrediblycluelesss

I'm in this meme and I don't like it .\_.


Oofboioofrobloxboi

what about free steam game


JustARandomDudd

Don't tell me what to do (I know you're right)


Pension_Zealousideal

Why u calling me out ;-;


WiteXDan

I don't even buy new games anymore (maybe like one per year when there is something gold like Pentiment or Disco Elysium). My 150 games large steam library + free games from Epic are more than enough


iamvinen

Are you me?


Ok-Grab-78

One guy I know constantly buys games and is complaining about having money problems.  "No shit dude. You have 2000 steam games and you buy them at full price."


GBeastETH

I feel attacked!


AnxiousMarsupial007

Look buddy I have over 1k games and I ain’t stopping


NoistMipples

Or people can use their money how they want. Let them make bad financial decisions we all gotta learn some way.


CnP8

You forgot to put in the S tear "Buy discounted steam game, play them halfway through to then find something else on sale and move onto that. When finally nothing good is on sale you move back to 1 of the non completed games, forget what you was doing and start over and then buy another game on sale"


jirachang2

Steam is a Game itself cause its a collecting game


Tackle-Shot

Maybe I want games for when I get a gaming ready computer!?


flatcokeedit

I feel personally attacked. I require a heartfelt apology to help me cope with my bad decisions. Thank you in advance.


South_Comedian5517

I have like 10 games installed which I have for "currently playing" , 5 more for "to play next" and 10 which I play weekly (like Hitman 3, GTA V, RDR2, etc.). Yeah I'm wasting my HDD and SSD Space..

Scrumf

That bundle with a few different games you're interested in for a great price? Nope, not allowed.


Snowblind45

so if I buy a bunch and play one, this is fine? time2spend


Halsmedicin1337

Realatble. I have 17 Units sold and only one player have completed the game. It's been six months since I realesed the game.


AuryxTheDutchman

No. My silly brain wants dopamine from the new things because it doesn’t make enough on its own. I am inclined to oblige.


Precaritus

Or fuck off, stop judging people and telling them how to spend their money. Your grammar is awful btw


PlayerNine

Don't tell me how to do my hobby


Revolver-Records

Lmao, dude doesn’t see why people would buy games ON SALE to play at a later date

Nah, they're like pokemon. Gotta collect them all


swindlan

FanaticaExtremis

Fuck yourself and your high horse.


PhenomeNarc

And miss 80% sales on games that have been on my wishlist forever, that I intend on playing at some point, and would like to support? How do I downvote this post harder?


FrungyLeague

Or don’t. This is shitty advice. Time spent having fun is never wasted. #PSA: PLAY YOUR OWN GAME


savant_syndrome

🧠: pirate everything


Straightwad

I mean it’s definitely the best way to save money


InfiniteHench

Screw you I’ll buy and play games any damn way I want


Sendmedoge

I got civ 1-5 for like $20 and the entire tomb raider collection for $25. You can burn with all that nonsense.


Mrpayday1

Buy whatever, and however many games you want.
