>Mods banned every user that criticized silksong in the reviewsI liked the game but this is ridiculousNow that backloggd is unusable, what other "MAL for vidya" sites are you gonna migrate to? Are there any other options left at this point? Should we all go back to excel / notepad?
I've just used a notepad for a few years to help with my poor memoryGame + brief impressionDunno why you need more desu
so you fags are finally realizing how fucking bad the moderation on that piece of shit website is, took you long enoughyou are literally a cuck if you use this website in 2025, all the effort you spend on your lists and backlog can vanish in a second if the mods happen to dislike you for whatever reason (if you are a /v/ poster it will likely happen at some point)
Based mods for cock blocking review bombers.

>>719888624I told you to switch to Backloggery already.
>>719888732I quit backloggery after the UI update but I might go back to itAn excel file is still probably the best option for practical purposes if you don't care about the social media part
I need MAL and IMDB for movies and tv shows because I watch a lot of stuff and sometimes you have things with similar plots or that you just watched drunk/half asleep one night and you really can't remember.But I just don't understand the need for the same thing as far as games are concerned. I sure can't name from the top of my head every single game I played but if I see a single screenshot of it I can tell whether I played that or not. Gaming isn't a passive hobby so it baffles me how a person can "forget" he played a game

>>719889407>iv been tested beforehaha holy shit my sides
>>719889407i actually agree with him, but i also think hes a joyless faggot that doesnt actually like video games. i can definitely appreciate a game with a "vision," even if i dont actually like playing it. but lowest common denominator slop toys can be fun too, if even for a little bit.
>>719888913>I quit backloggery after the UI updateYeah, same. Crawled back because it's better than any current alternative EVEN after the redesign, the absolute state of vidya tracking sites. Latest updates are smileys, badges, and some additional profile buttons. Half the features are still missing, notably the social ones. The guy takes his sweet time adding back what's been working perfectly for many years, but it is what it is.

Never understood the need for a backlogJust play what you fucking want
>>719888264>Dunno why you need more desuGoogle/Excel Sheet is a way to go. One page per year, and it's already split in rows and columns. Very handy.
>>719891959What if you wanted to play 2 games at the same time? You'll install 1 game and store the second game in your mental "backlog"This is the same shit but on a much larger scale, for people who actually play videogames

>>719887925>>719888264>>719888624>>719888913>>719892091It's very easy to use the IGDB API to build your own personal backloggd, I build my own document and use the IGDB API to pull all game data like titles, cover images, release dates, platforms etc
>>719892092Sounds gay and unnecessary
not in the same vein but i love RetroAchievements, it's my favorite vidya sitei've tried a bunch of logging sites but none were good
>>719887925Gamefaqs and MobyGames have the best databases, but absolutely shit UI for actually tracking games. It's possible, just painful. IGDB database quality gets worse and worse. The UI is okay. Everyone else just use their database, and at best they will make some small adjustments like backloggd did, but it's still fundamentally flawed. Rawg.io, Infinite Backlog, all use IGDB database.Glitchwave is on life support, it will never get finished. And the userbbase will be so cancerous, Backloggd will look like a harmless joke.Grouvee just... exists? It uses Gamebomb database, can't recall why I ditched it last time I tried to use it.There's also Darkadia, iirc it used Gamebomb at first, and was good, but now it's some mix of Gamebomb and IGDB database, so no idea about the overall quality. UI was good, simple and effective, no responsive web cancer.
>>719887925Backloggd is dog shit, backloggery was good but they revamped the site and made it way worseBest site is infinite backlog nowOn a side note, for some reason a few months ago there were daily backloggd shill threads on /v/ lmao
>>719888387Review bombing doesn't exist. I've never seen someone leave a negative review for something they like. If you're getting negative reviews, you've earned it somehow.
>>719892778That was the prog faggot spamming those threads, he owns backloggdHe started posting here a few years ago when the site was in a very early stage, he took suggestions from us for features, but in the end he cucked all of us by hiring mentally ill xitter mods that hate us and will ban the average /v/ poster on sight
>>719887925>Jarvis, pull up a list of the admin teams preferred pronouns>>719892778>for some reasonThey didn't want to buy an ad
>>719887925This page is slowly turning into that movie site whose name I forgot where people just run on the release to make the wacky movie review and get updvotes, they should open reviews a week later, hell I would even open reviews a month later, so you get less people trying to be funny and more honest reviews from people who played the gameThe top reviews from this game are going to be this shit forever instead the thoughts of someone who played it: https://backloggd.com/games/hollow-knight-silksong/If any of you guys want to make a funny website like this one consider doing that to make the place better, thanks
>>719893027Well, in his defense I think most of us deserve a ban.
>>719892778>infinite backlogThey have shilled here as well. Not much, but still guilty.
I don't think I will ever understand homosexuals who need to upload their fucking game list to someone else's computer. There's one thing I enjoy having a cloud backup for, and that's Anki. I haven't needed it often, but after a PC crash it's nice that I can just sync my decks back to my PC for something I've used every day for 10 years. Anything else? I just move a backup to another drive every month or two.
>>719893206/v/ was considering making it's own "based" backloggd clone but that project died with the thread
>>719892092lol>for people who actually play videogamesLMAODo losers really...?
>>719891809It's better than all this shit actually because it's private and completely customizable.>>719891959>Just play what you fucking wantIf you're a casual, sure, you don't need to keep track of anything. Just play whatever's popular and you're good

>>719893269I haven't seen it blatantly spilledI rarely ever even see it get mentioned (other than by me) because I feel like it's the smallest of the threeI just miss old backloggery man
>>719892420Why would I need any of that? Plus see >>719888624
>>719893575>I just miss old backloggery manNot as much as I miss Playfire.
>>719893382What the fuck does that even mean? I play more video games than you and I don't need a queer list to go throughLet me guess, you use a fucking diary too
>>719893206If you're gonna delete those 0.5 star "troll reviews" then delete those 5 star reviews that were posted within seconds of the game's launch as wellIt's clear none of these memeniggers played the game yet but the action is only taken against the people who post anti-game shitposts, 5 star troll ratings affect the average score too but are ignored completely
>>719892420I'm really considering this at this point, being web monkey has some benefits. Would've done this ages ago if Gamefaqs had API.
>>719893704>I play more video games than youIf you did, you'd need a list to keep track of them because I sure do. I've played 2151 game so far in my life, excluding those I dropped in under an hour.. See I can say that because I have a list and the list is numbered. Isn't that nice. Without a list I'd have no idea, just like you have no idea. But if you're a casual, you don't need to know those things, you wouldn't care about them.
>>719892420>>719893852I'll pay you to make it a public website we all can use
>>719893991>I've played 2151 game so far in my lifeThat's genuinely sad man. Vidya is cool and it's a good hobby but Jesus bro.
>>719894091Wouldn't be surprised if InfiniteBacklog started exactly like this. The problem is it's still fucking IGDB database.
>>719893991dont listen to that other faggot, you should be proud of having played that many gamesim at 1853 games myself and dont regret the time I have spent on gaming over the years
I had no idea people used sites for this kind of thing, I just use a Word document on my PC. Judging by what I'm seeing ITT it really seems like some sort of mega gay normie social media thing and IDK why you'd subject yourself to that. Then again I still come to current year 4chan so whatever.
>>719894207Not everyone needs to be a hardcore gaming fan like myself. If you're a casual, that's fine, I'm sure your other hobbies are much better
>>719894298What's wrong with IGDB?

>>719887925I used to use excel but the best thing for me recently has been Playnite. It's designed as a frontend, but you can add and edit whatever game you want and mark it as uninstalled so it's tracked but not in your games list. Offers plenty of plugins and customizing (cheevos, hltb, screenshots) too. It stays local on your pc but you can export a csv for excel or Google sheets if you want it accessible online.No social media bullshitNo declined gamesYou can add all your h-games guilt freeAll with pretty cover art and backgroundsDefinitely better than just an Excel sheet or either of the shit services currently available, but by default it's just for (you) a good thing for many
>>719895047Playnite is where it's at, it does everything you could ever want
>>719894924Even the normalfag streamers have completed 500-1000 different games and that number is not a big deal when you consider the fact that most of us have been gaming since decades , try not being an underage turdworler that got internet access like 5 years ago
>>719895251>normalfag>streamers
>>719892968Reviews are worthless unless you can verify they own the product. Metacritic proves that.
>>719895047>>719895179This! Switching to Playnite has been the best decision of my life. The perfect solution for all your gamer needs, Playnite!
>>719895179>>719895360I posted that comment and these feel like shill posts
>>719895047Yeah, let me just manually add five gorillions of games I played twenty years ago to your shitty botnet launcher, sure it's the best thing ever.
>>719895357>Metacritic proves thatStill fucking mad about what they did to New Vegas
Glitchwave would be the best if the lazy RYM retards ever finished it
>>719887925proof? it has a 3.9 right now.
you know you can use a website without engaging with the community right?
>>719896613>you know you wont be banned if you stay quiet like a good little cucky boy right?
>>719896718>cuckoldry out of nowhere also why do you need to talk with trannies about videogames? Aren't the ones here enough for you?
>>719896856>out of nowherebeing on a website that hates people like you and would literally ban you for speaking is cuck behavior
>>719892968>review bombing doesn't exist>when countless games often times are review bombed for one (1) feature that is unpopularSaying review bombing doesn't exist is akin to normalizing outrage/cancel culture in that it can hyperfocus on one specific detail which doesn't account for the rest of the game.Very easy example: Bethesda attempting to enact paid mods on Skyrim making it so that the game was review bombed, despite mods literally being outside the bounds of the actual game.It exists and user-generated rating systems are less because of it since the average person has time and time again proved that you can't look at something objectively. This goes both ways and I truly do believe a "Nintendo bonus" for games does exist.
>OP makes a bait made up post>chuds fall for itthis place is literally the shithole of the internet
>>719896980>using a website whose web services are being paid by people who hate you is being a cuckyou got that backwards also how about you use the website as tool to log your videogames instead of yet another faggy social media?
>>719897181Mind explaining the bait? or are you a shill trying to defend the trooned out moderation
>>719897181>a baitNice try backloggd faggot, your website is full of mentally ill mods and users and everyone should know that. To the front page we go.
So Backloggery is good, yeah?
>>719897181another examplethere's too many for me to post heremaybe you should've been online during the silksong launch, you would know exactly what happened
>>719896980>Using a website is being "on it."It's incredible how society has intrinsically linked their internet usage with their self image and personality.Quick question, have do you reconcile using a website that has an /lgbt/ and /pony/ board?
>>719887925>Google this website>Assuming its for people who are intrested in structure and getting through their games>""A Video Game Collection Tracker" Why are gamers so degenerate, why is it always more about collecting thant actually playing the games and absorbing their contents and ideas..
>>719887925having a backlog is retarded anywayjust fucking play shitand just stop playing shit when you don't want to play it anymore
>>719887925What the fuck was wrong with How Long to Beat?
>>719897593It's not that deep you stupid pseudnigger
>>719897056>review bombed for one (1) feature that is unpopularThat is an earned negative review. People disliked something and rated it accordingly. Stopped reading your reply there.
>>719889407isn't this basically the same thought process that electric playground fag has?he doesn't seem games as experiences to enjoy, just basically a checklist that he "beat them" as he proceeds to play SH2 remake with the accessibility features to remove any tension from the game
>>719897768Tell that to OP
>>719896209>sign in thru steam>steam games done>sign in through xbox>Xbox games done>continueI don't see how it'd be any worse than manually writing down everything, you wanna write your own scraper too?>botnet>worried playnite hq will know I play video games>even though it works 100% offlineretard
>>719897791But that disregards the entirety of the rest of the game, which up until that point had won numerous game of the year awards based on its contents alone. Even if we consider, sure it's earned, it's a literal all or nothing rating that had no objective measure.
>>719897593The existence of /lgbt/ and /pony/ don't take away my ability to freely post on /v/What a retarded analogy
>>719888264Something like this but able to attach a cover picture would be ideal.
>>719897920What about all the hundreds and thousands of games that were made before Steam or Xbox or (you) was even a thing?
>>719897626This. You got all the entertainment you could out of the product. Why force yourself to play beyond the point of entertainment? Your own insecurity about how you'll be perceived? The game's purpose has been fulfilled.
>>719897960Reasonable because that's the only thing you can do on 4chan. Not sure why you'd use backlogged to post.
>>719897597>intrested in structure and getting through their gamesLike a guide? Like GameFaqs? You're disappointed people are tracking their games instead of using a guide to hold their hand through games?
>>719897951Maybe so, but it was enough to make them disregard the entirety of the game as well, and censoring reviews because of perceived review-bombing (which means whatever people want it to) defeats the entire point of community reviews.
>>719896980nigger 4chan literally has a tranny and gay board, fuck off newfaggot

>>719898401by your logic 4chan is a tranny website, so are you retarded or just pretending?
>>719898120Like the 450 emulated games I'm tracking? If you actually have them on your pc right now it'll automatically scan them, if you're talking about shit you played on colecovision as a kid then yeah you'd have to add it manually just like every other list or tracker would require, but it'll still take the game name you added and scrape art and data from whatever game database your prefer

>>719898491>being on a website that hates people like youThis literally applies to troons on 4chan you fucking retard, you should go say this in their tranny boards not here
>>719898573yeah, you must have spent a ton of time here shitposting and not actually playing gameseven my 32 year old friend who played his first videogame ever 3 years ago now has 2000 games you normalfag
>>719898491>by your logic 4chan is a tranny websiteAre you fucking new? Also they're called traps and they're not gay
To those who wanna quit backloggdUse Instant Data Scraper from the chrome extension store to quickly export all your backloggd data, since prog the faggot doesn't allow you to do it directly
>>719897802>Electric PlaygroundVictor Lucas? Or did you mean Electric Underground?
>>719898494>just like every other list or tracker would requireExcept on every other list all I need is to type the name and click add, and it's instantly in my library, with all the relevant info like platform and release date and all sequels/prequels and studios and whatsoever pulled automatically. With all the fancy shit like covers and scores and screenshots and inflated user stats. I'm not using your launcher for launchers, you can stop shilling.
>>719898893yes underground, not playground. i get them mixed upt. leaf
>>719892092No you install both of them and play whichever you want. If you really liked a game you would just play it to completion anyway instead of hopping to other games all the time. What you're describing is just autism.
>>719898897It's literally the same shitYou click add game and it pulls straight from igdb, ign, official store, Wikipedia, wherever you wantDon't use whatever you don't want and I'm not bothered if anyone else uses playnite or not, I'm just arguing for it's role as a game tracker. You don't have to worry about games not being available, being banned for wrongthink, or associating with autistic fags like the shitty online servicesOn second thought maybe you do belong in those communities
>>719887925Did you start shrieking and concern trolling like a moron like you do here? /v/ is a bizarro board where you get banned for talking about video games and praised for making smelly shitposts, the rest of the internet is not like that and despite what you may believe your 30IQ "criticisms" aren't particularly insightful. Additionally, how smelly do you have to be to even consider using this in the first place? You don't play anything noteworthy to begin with.
>>719899438>TroonimaiOpinion discarded
>>719894647Anything else?
>>719899551Go ahead, post your ebin complete games list and let's see if you've ever beaten a real video game or just play slop. You seem dead set on sharing it with others on some gay website anyways.
>>719898717>you must have spent a ton of time here shitposting and not actually playing gamesYou got that part right
I use backloggd and never interact with the community beyond checking some recommendations if I find someone with similar tastes. I don't know why people go out of their way to interact with trannies and shit, I already do enough of that by posting here.
This topic is how I found out backloggd even has message boards. OP is a huge fag.
>>719899664What's the matter troony? Wanted another (You)? I already said I don't care about the opinions of people who enjoy garbage anime
>>719899927and you're a blind faggot who couldn't even see "reviews" on the front page
>>719887925>needing a whole website for a video game listDo zoomers really? For fucks sake use notepad, if you actually played games you wouldn't have a mile long backlog anyways.
I like backloggd and simply block trannies on sight and just use it to make my autistic lists anyway
I like reading some of the pretentious reviews people make on this site for a laugh
>>719889407He sounds like the average /v/ user that just hates every game
>>719897920how can you sign in through steam, i can't see that option in the login/registration, nor in the connections under settings
>random guy starts following you>become paranoidman I wish we could have some privacy options
>>719894380If you have autism (like most people on here), then you'd know that having visuals (i.e. the game's cover) is more satisfying to look at than an ugly white text document
>>719900267>just use it to make my autistic listsThat's the only thing it's good for. Like most other online communities, it's infested. Some of the other people's lists are alright too, you can usually tell if they're going to have shit taste in games after as soon as you look at it. If you ignore the community aspect of it for everything else it does what I need.
>>719900035Oh you're still here. I thought you left but you're just picking and choosing posts to reply to except the ones that blow you the fuck out.
>>719900610That's the guy we sent to watch you lol don't worry about it too much
I’ve made several “reviews” which are just jokingly giving anime gachas 5 stars because I’m a porn addict, but the only time I actually had a review deleted was Concord, when I posted nothing but links of TF2 laughing voicelines.
>>719900267>Lunar_Phasewhy do you fags make those lame "schizo games" lists and then 90% of the games have nothing schizophrenic in them?
>>719900650Ya man that's why all the normie OS's are moving towards uncolored text and terminals, it's actually autistic to use windows and iPhones.
>>719894380>it really seems like some sort of mega gay normie social media thingit's exactly that, basically discord shit behavior, these people crave attention and they will try to get it from anywhere they can. They don't really enjoy things, just attach themselves to whatever thing is happening and then makes it their entire personality.
>>719900267What sorts of lists do people make on Backloggd exactly? Like what's the theme of the lists?

>>719887925Why would I need to sign up for some dogshit website when I can do everything locally
I use it since a couple of my friends started using it, just log my games and look my friends reviews while ignoring everyone else.
>>719900782what the fuck are you talking about? there are no boards on backloggd, I don't know how retarded you have to be to not even realize that the website has a "reviews" function when it's literally a letterboxxd clone

It's insane to me that there's anyone this invested in a site used to keep a track of your backlog.

I dont have autism or a need to show off this to anyone online so I never keep these lists for games or movies and if a game or movie is forgettable then so be it, its not worth it
If you use any of these sites for anything other than tracking your own list and finding more media you are fucking retarded. All of them are full of contrarian pseuds and casual normalfags that have no idea of how ratings and reviews should be
>>719902175many games are under 10hrs long, so you can play that many games in ~20years instead of nolifing WoW or Dota for 30000 hrs (yes such people exist)
>>719900924>on a website that actually holds their users accountableYet the 5 star shitpost reviews that were posted within seconds of the game's launch are still up despite it being clear that none of them had played the game
>>719902175Or he's not autistic enough to play the same MMO or MOBA for 2400 hours and actually plays games
>>719887925>>719887925>backloggdWhy do even use him? we need our own 4chan loggd
>backloggd trannies desperately trying to defend their shitty websitelol
>>719902528Who's defending backloggd ITT?
>>719902393>>719902474The better game is the one who knows a game inside out, who is not afraid to spend a lot of time on the games he loves instead of being a consoomer who just jump from one game to another.I have one such friend who has MINIMUM 500 hours in every game he likes and je plays like five games a year but his knowledge of each title is really impressive.Better to practice a single kick 10000 times
>>719894207>>719902175>>719899438You need to be 18+ to post here
>>719902782I'm 30
Good thing I don't give a shit about reviewing games I play and just use Backloggery.>B-but the UI updateFiltered.
>>719902528Why are you replying to your own post OP.
Im free...
>>719902994Free from what?
>>719902739I was always this kind of person, because of money constraints, interest in playing few games to the end etc.But during this 2010~2022 period I purchased a lot of stuff and barely played those after the main campaign and not even that.Went back to buying 1~3 games a year and thoroughly enjoying them. It was because few titles interest me anymore, but this had this good side effect of making me enjoy the ones I do even more.
If you have to put a game down in a list to remember it, it's probably not worth remembering.
>>719889407Why the hell gamers manage to be more cringe than bookniggers.This is supposed to be our Golden Age, guys.
>>719902994lol what a loser
>>719903064>>719903175Seething shills
>>719903103TRVTH NVKE
>>719902739Yeah I've got 1000 hours in some games I really enjoyed, but do you expect me to put in more than 100 hours on something like Rayman? I can 100% finish that game in about 20-25 hours, great game, no need to spend more time though.
>>719903175>NOOOOO MA'AM DO NOT REDEEM THE FUCKING DELETE BUTTON NOOOOO STOOOOOPHoly kek
>>719889407Should i murder him bros?
>>719903239What am I shilling? Dude is acting like leaving some inconsequential backlog tracking site is some brave act of emancipation. You fuckers really have a flare for melodrama.
>>719903468It may not mean much to him, but we all know how it affects you, Ranjesh
>>719902175I've been clearing over a hundred games a year lately. I'm at around 600 titles completed on Steam alone, completing 2000 is definitely achievable it's just a matter of how long you've been at it and how long the average title you're playing is
>Tfw dropped milk and hot sauce over the notebook i kept log of all the movies and games i had playedIt's so ver bros
>>719890480Unfortunately Drumble has a neurological problem that makes typing extremely painful for him. So he can only go in short bursts.
>>719903090Taking time to enjoy every game is truly liberating.I have some moments like the one you described when you just play one game than another then another... some of those games end up among my favorites but when I look at my top 20/30 I realize that I don't feel the same way about games I played because I felt they were worth playing (like Yakuza 0, Fallout 1) and others that just enraptured me beyond rationality (like Warcraft 3 or Furi).There are games that you love because you recognize their qualities and you enjoyed them, and then there are games that are YOUR games and they just hit deeper. I've felt that the latter were always played leisurely, as if they were the last game I'd play.
>>719904117>extremely painfulFor you
>>719902782I've been here since you were a toddlerhabeeb it
>>719903728>milk and hot saucewhat were you eating
>>719904252Milk and hot sauce
people who see games a list of tasks to complete have legitimate brain damage
>>719902739I think I'm just better and faster at retaining information than you. I don't need to watch a movie 100 times to know if I like it or not. Once is enough
>>719904319
>>719903728I was gonna say that's a disgusting combo, but then I remembered that milk is actually much more effective at cooling your mouth down from spicy food than water
>>719904356Nah you're just satisfied with superficial knowledge and you don't know what it is to be truly blown away by a work of fiction.
>>719903728Make copies of copies of everything you write bro
>>719904515No piece of art is ever meant to be consumed over and over again, excessively. Logging hundreds or thousands of hours into a single singleplayer game is a very recent phenomenon created by a niche subculture of terminally online autists. I somehow doubt these people cracked the case of how to "properly" enjoy art
>>719903702Seems strange to me. The last game I finished was Khazan, spent like 40 hours to finish a complete NG and I beat it in a week, that's a bit more than five hours of playtime on average every day. That's not a lot but that's not a little either. 40 hours is like medium length, at a pace of 5,5 hours per day (EVERY single day of the year, that's the thing) you'd beat four medium length games in a month or 48 in a year. 2000+ is literally insane unless you can afford playing 10 hours every single day or you hyperfocus on retro games from NES to Megadrive where the vast majority of games were so short (5 hours) you'd beat one a day at least.
>>719887925>Should we all go back to excel / notepad?I've never needed more than notepad to add games to my backlog so that I don't forget about them.
What is the point of these websites? Do they do anything that steam doesn't do other than provide a gay little circlejerk?
>>719904704>No piece of art is ever meant to be consumed over and over again, excessively. It is. When it's actually made by a talented author, the depth of a good novel is unfathomable. A single Shakespeare's play has enough depth to warrant years and years of studying.

>>719887925>make a baseless claim >get 200 replies just blindly believing you without any proof posted whatsoeverUh, /v/? Explain? You guys realize he's literally making shit up, right?
>>719905129you would see the proof if you actually read the threadwe were all online during the silksong launch
>>719905129>AGP avatarfag is retarded.Checks out.
>>719905218I did read the thread and no sorry, randomly suspended profiles without any context whatsoever isn't proof of anything.Good try though.
>>719905343>on /v/>not retarded>implying
>>719905375you had to be there for the context, anyone who was actually present there at the time would instantly recognise those profiles there was even a thread about the reviewbombing here, you're genuinely retarded if you missed it despite being a backloggd user, it's understandable if you don't use the site though
>>719905591>y-you don't get it you just had to be there i'm not making shit up i swear!!Ok retard. Post links to the archives then or shut the fuck up.
>>719905014That's just called being autistic, anon. No historian or literary expert is going to stare at a single fucking play for years. You're autistic.
>>719905737I don't have to do that, people are talking about it because they witnessed itNo one cares about people like you who missed out and it wouldn't affect me in any way if you don't believe it, Im not a shill
>>719905129idk and idc desuall the online services are shit in one way or another and the communities aren't worth anythinglocal tracking is the way to goI could see something like exophase too I suppose, since it's just compiling stats that are already tracked across your accounts
>>719905897Burden of proof is on you to prove the bullshit you're spewing, so yeah you kind of do. But that's fine, I accept your concession.
>>719902175I would have over 2500 games if I hadn't wasted 14k hours in WoW
>>7199047942000+ games when each is a 40+ hour epic? Yeah at 80k hours that's pretty unreasonable I'm sure some anons could still do it over a 20-30 year span at the cost of everything else, but it's not like 40+ hour epics are all you have to play.I tend to pick up shorter games since I don't want to have anything occupying my thoughts when the next work task or date or meeting with friends rolls around. Of the 13 games I beat in August only one of them took more than 15 hours (Prodigal w/ randomizer). I wish Chants of Sennaar had taken longer since that was pretty fun.I've got plenty of long games to pick from in my library, but I tend to hesitate to pick them since I don't know if my free time will suddenly be taken away
>>719892092>What if you wanted to play 2 games at the same time? You'll install 1 game and store the second game in your mental "backlog"fucking woah, bro, you just like, rocked my world.. I never thought about it like before. like woah..
>>719907478some people are too retarded to understand basic shit like that
>>719906982>Prodigal w/ randomizerbased, now play cursed crackers for more colorgravekinoalso nta but I actually like to track metrics for this shit, and even as someone with no friends and vidya as its only hobby, I put 2200 hours into playing in 2024, with an average of 31 hours per game. I would need around 40 years to get to 80k hours. I'll get there, hopefully.
>>719888264for me it's excel with"Game Name - Platform - Release Date"
>>71990217540I've beaten precisely 2851 games as of my archive and I know I'm behind on logging info.My excuse? I'm handicapped and was without a job for years. That's slowed down but I'm still at near 100 beaten in this year so far, not counting replays.
>>719907812I've been trying to sort out my games by year of release and year beaten.
>>719908594what's your 3x3 based disabledbro
>>719908594>16.7% "beaten">80.6% "completed" What's the difference? Completed as in 100%'d with all achievements? That's fucking crazy if that's what you did. Surely it wasn't worth it since so many games have achievements that simply aren't worth getting.
>>719887925Just use notepad/excel. Making your own spreadsheets is fun coz you can ad exactly what details you need.You don't need to login to a website specifically designed just to sell your data just to keep track of what yo want to play.Plus the user ratings on websites are always fucking terrible - people who sit around rating games online have the absolute WORST taste.
>>719908594>>719909275I liked how gamefaqs has "beat it" and "conquered it" categories. Instantly tells you what's difference.
>>719888387rating a game you haven't played, negatively >:rating a game you haven't played, 10/10 :O
>>719887925I like backloggd just for being able to track and rate my vidya and make lists. For that Backloggd is perfect and no other site comes close with as user friendly an interface as theirs. That said I don't make bother with making reviews or interact with the community side of it at all. Just don't see the point and couldn't give a fuck less about what shit opinions people have about things. Pretty sure Backloggd suffers from the same problem as Letterboxd too, wherein all the top "reviews" are just memes and actual genuine reviews are buried.
I wish backlog websites would actually count Warcraft 3 custom maps.I've spent more time on some of them than regular games and they play nothing like base W3.
>>719909994Iirc IGDB (where backloggd gets all the games) accepts mods if they are "significant" enough. Like Ancient Aliens for Doom or DotA for Warcraft is significant, but Skyrim mod that replaces rock #8985211 texture with an AI upscaled version is not.But in reality they won't accept shit >>719888624
>>719909118I don't have it handy but the basic list would be in no particular order.>FFV>FFVI>Chrono Trigger>Earthbound>Mother 3>Sonic 3 & Knuckles>FFXIV: Stormblood>Shenmue II>Gravity RushI primarily prefer AA games>>719909275Yeah, backloggery generally lets you decide how you define it but I count everything you can do content wise. Trophies/Achievements/Ribbons/Stamps I consider beyond 100% along with speedrunning. In the old system of backloggery, Mastery.>>719909472I agree. Game FAQs is very good to have as an alternative.
>>719909994I use backloggery to just add it as another game. Excel bros I imagine do the same.
>>719910298Just wish they'd accept stuff like Metastasis, Gaia's Retaliation ORPG, SOTDRP, Vampirism Fire... those shit are more significant than GOW Ragnarok compared to remake GOW
>>719911265Tangentially I wish I had a 3D printer to make physical Platinums/Blue Ribbons/Stamps/Whatever the fuck with Xbox to add to my game box on my shelf.And yes, I do make physical backups of my steam games.
>>719897802???Mork is the most gameplay-obsessed fag on earth. How the fuck did you get the complete opposite impression? Are you legitimately fucking retarded?
>>719889407Imagine your family thinking you're a fucking retard so they Get_Tested you and then medical science proves you're just actually retarded (non-medical).
>>719887925Having a backlog for entertainment is dumb. If you can't even remember that you wanted to play a game, then you don't want to play it.

>>719908594>2247Nice, you're only 30 away from maxing
Why don't people just have their steam games sorted into "done" and "to do"? Why do you need a fucking website for that?
>>719903159>This is supposed to be our Golden Age, guys.that was the late 80sit's over
>>719892092why not just say its a personal rating system
>>719887925Deserved by anyone using these retarded websites.People used to be laugh at for using MAL, why would this shit be even remotely ok? Just use notepad or a spreadsheet.
Anyone who doesn't just have a notepad for their backlog deserves to be shot.
>>719911265>Game FAQs is very good to have as an alternative.Meh, best not to rely on it. Fandom bought them a couple months ago, they're probably working on a revamped site with 98% ad injections as we speak.
>idiots need a list to tell them what to play
I always ctrl+f my site name on here because I'm paranoid, I don't post meme reviews though so I should be safe>>719918128Good taste, need to play some of these
>>719922215>to tell themI made the list. So I'm just telling myself what to play? This isn't the own you think it is.
>>719889407He just like ARTlol, those kind of pretensious losers are hilarious, they think if something is art its automatically good no matter what and if something is not "art" then its automatically bad or mediocre.Fucking braindead retard insecure little shit, the userbase there is aged 20-21 years old, which explains this mentality and which explains why Call of Shit (Duty) games that got released in the 2010-2012 era are highly rated despite being shit they played the zoom zoom zombie mode when they were 12 fuck all of them, idiotic pieces of trash, i want to beat them up
>>719922215>idiots need a list to tell them what to buy

>>719887925>unironically checking up reviews im sorry anon but this shit already turned into a letterboxd gamer edition long time ago. it literally has the same problem of having too many twitter post "reviews"
Nothing against you guys, it's just funny.
>>719922705Shit, really? Well I can't stop you.>>719923168Why wouldn't you play Sekiro? It's probably From's best game. Katamari is excellent and it's a very short game, would reccommend it.
>>719923527I think he's just messin with you, anon. Either way, best not to bring attention to such things. Most people really don't think about stuff like that anymore. Too much content to go on unnecessary doxing adventures.
>>719923620No i really found his name, seems he doesn't like it being posted so i won't do it.
>enjoyment is the last thing I look for>I prioritize focused experiences created by auteurs
>>719923527>Sekiro I hate parrying I just dont find that fun so a whole game made around that is just not for me >>719923620everything I said I meant suck my dick you dont speak for me
>>719887925Ill be honest, I dont keep a backlogI dont read review sitesI just look around for games I like and play themAll this extra shit? Not vidya
>>719923748For what it's worth, Boris did some decent stuff with Merzbow, and by sheer volume of output I'm sure he's done some other things that are worth listening to. The Boris stuff is genuinely good.
>>719918128Giving Uncharted 2 and Call of Duty aa highest score? you should be hanged.
>>719923293my most liked review said I stopped playing a coop game at the 3rd chapter, with (gf,now ex) and that if you cant enjoy a game with someone your putting your dick in the game is beyond trash
>>719923742Cheers anon. It's not hard to find me when I rate obscure mod shit 5 stars.>>719923795Fair enough yeah, I prefer it over rolling so it just clicks with me.
Parrying and rolling are basically the same thing, parrying just has a stricter timing and is less spammable.
>Play a game>Put it on a tier list>Anons only focus on the games I put in low tiersWhat is the point?
rate my taste, inb4 someone tries to doxx mehttps://backloggd.com/u/unethicalknight/
>>719922423>Left Bros and Right Bros SMB3Really?
>>719924047I just don't think someone can have good taste if they like some good games and have asinine ratings.If you give too many objectively good games a low score and too many objectievly bad games a high score then your taste is garbage, its simple.If i sneak into your profile and i find 1 or 2 guilty pleasure i can get it, in case you played above 200 games, but if sneak into your profile and i find 5 Call of Duty games rated 10 and some mediocre trash like Black Flag being given a 9 all the while you give multiple good games 5 or 6 then you will get the stamp of retarded brain and lose all your credibility.I take ratings like a ranking, when you rate something 9 and something else 8 then you are saying the 9 is better than the 8
>>719924064>favorite game: killer7I played the game for the first time a few days ago and stopped halfway through. It's a point and click with extra steps, and metacommentary on the state of Japan that I didn't understand and was not interested in in the slightest.I feel like i'm an outlier though because it seems like a cult classic.
>>719924313its one of those games that you had to play when it released, i understand what you are saying tho, its kinda hard to get into it now
>>719888316I've never used it, I always used Backloggery.
>>719923941cod4 was the game that made cod it fucking killed halo, was a really fun online game I put about 20days on how can I go yeah +20days on the game 3.5 I am not you also beat the story on very hard and not even for trophies cause there was none just enjoyed ituncharted 2 the same beat it on crushing played it 2/3 times, it had a PVE mode i played shit loads with friends we'd beat all the 10 waves on crushing and PVP online I aslo loved (online got better in 3 but 3 wasnt as good)was you even someone from that time?>>719924030I am that anon I really enjoy patapon just parrying in souls/hack n slashs feel gay and cheap
>>719887925google sheets so i can access it whenever. The most comfy option too since you can input games you pirated
>>719924304I got red dead 1 highbut red dead 2 I think its dog shit due to the controls have anarchy reigns rated higher
>>719924064So you think Sniper Elite 4, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 & Valkyria Chronicles are as good as Doom, Remake, BG3 and MGS3? And you think RE5, Pirate Yakuza, Watch Dogs 2 are as good as Dishonored, Bloodborne, DMC3 and Portal?How do you justify this without sounding stupid? serious question.
i love videogames and this website is cool, just dont interact with no one, use it like your own personal website
>>719924463>was you even someone from that time?I played Call of Duty 1 when it released in 2003, its just a franchise for casuals, i liked it when i was a newfag into gaming, today i cant rate any CoD game above 6/10
>>719924304The only asinine rating I can think of is Mega Man X rated E tier, and Sonic R rated B tier.The problem with rankings and tier lists is that you can like many aspects of a game, like the OST, artstyle, story, but if the gameplay is bad it automatically bumps it down, which gives the impression that you hate it. I love Wario: Master of Disguise so much, but the gameplay has to bring it down. It's probably my third favorite Wario game but it's rated low.
>>719924651bro the ratings are not that deep, im not a videogame critic, if i like the game i will give it a good scoreso yeah MGS3 and Sonic 2 can have the same score because i liked playing both games
>>719924064anon I've just played last of us 2 come on its not a 5 even it had a good story its too fucking long I know you KNOW that i know that you know its too long
>>719924704I rate every other cod other then 4 like a 3/3.5 like you said there just whateverI hated the piss outta WAW but my brother had me playing zombies and so did my norway friend and MW2 i stopped playing after two weeks
>>719924779is that your only complaint tho? that its long? so thats still a solid 4/5
>>719924651>MGS3?shit game
>>719924651Tell me why Sonic 2 can't be as good as Doom
>>719919887Believe it brother. Unc's been doing this for decades.
>>719924967no I said if it had a good story, it doesntI can see a 4 if you really liked it I liked the gameplay myself
>>719922423>only 40 games played
>>719925181anon its 40 games his rated 5/5
>>719924651>how dare you rate [insert game] the same as le based MGS3meds
>>719925301>medsRope
>>719925272damn, I'm retarded
>>719924771Yeah this is what i was talking about, nonsensical ratings make kills your credibility.>>719924983Its fine to hate on good game out of many, its not if you hate many good games out of many. Sometimes one game doesn't click, thats normal, but if multiple good games dont click then your taste is the problem.>>719925094Sonic 2 is a barely above average platformer, not even the best sonic game, plenty of platformers surpass its game design. Doom is a legacy title FPS with top tier level design, OST and gameplay that aged well, its wide amount of great mods expand on it even further, Doom is a must play title for any gaming enthusiast, its a beast in its genre while Sonic 2 is merely just another game.Besides the point, you have to look at all the picture here, not just compare 1 game, its fine to like one or two games a lot, it happens, but if you consistently like mediocre games and lump them together with great games then thats a bad sign.
>>719887925>what other "MAL for vidya" sites are you gonna migrate toNot only is it better because there aren't mods so you don't have fucking ship of harkinian higher than actual games but all versions of a game are listed under one page so the top 40 isn't 5 version of mgs3 and 3 versions of bloodborne
>>719925337I got mgs3 rated as a 3 cause I've tried to play it twice quit after the end 1st time 2nd quit at the end base (I am gonna move it to 2.5)I got DMC also rated as a 3 I have finshed that gay game twice, did the dlcI like DMC more then MGS3 I like spec ops the line more the MGS3 and that games got shit gameplay just like 3
>>719922450god i hate those fags. "art worshipers" are the new reddit atheists
>>719925509DOOM is a shit FPS, just because it was one of the first doesnt mean you have to suck its cock
>>719925509how can DOOM and F.E.A.R. have the same score when FEAR is literally a 5x better FPS game than fucking DOOMyour logic is retarded
>>719925565This one is even worse, who are you fooling you idiot?Mods will delete your comments, they get flagged and removed in short time if you offend the hivemind.The ratings there are an actual joke, you have some games that have low average score, even below 4.0 like Echo (the furry LGBT game) and despite having a low score, it gets a high ranking on the chart for some reason nobody knows about, because the formula is "le secret" and they can manipulate ratings how they want.Also the chart is fucked up, plenty of nonsensical tags, retarded opinions and casual pseuds that talk like they know their shit and get offended when you challenge their opinion. I got a retard kid cry and get offended at me there because i dared him to defend his argument (which was bad)Glichwave is like if you take all the shitters of Backloggd all distilled into an uglier website.
>>719925726>your logic is retardedIts not because i never claimed FEAR is 5x better, you argue against a strawman, FEAR is not better than Doom, it just has better AI over it, its a good game though.>>719925651I dont talk with plebs.
>>719925509my most disliked 'good games' would be mgs3the witcher 3red dead 2pokemon goldŌkamiP5FF7red dead 2DS2jak2DarksidersLOZ the 64 one
>>719925867>it just has better AI>it just has better physics>it just has better gameplay>it just has a betterstory>it just has better enemies>it just has better gunplaybut yeah its totally the same as DOOM, your so right bro
>>719925807you need to take your meds eric none of this happened and it's all in your tiny head
>>719925939Without seeing the whole ratings i can't make any opinion on your taste, you can dislike a lot of good games if you want in case your graph is skewed to the lower side, this just means you are harsh with ratings, its a way some people use to differentiate between titles, its valid if its consistent.
>>719887925>what other "MAL for vidya" sites are you gonna migrate to?my own excel diary
>>719925939>Okamiwhy bro? did you try playing more than 5h?
>>719925939>red dead 2>red dead 2Wow you really hate Red Dead 2. Also>DS2What the fuck is this? Dark Souls 2? Dead Space 2? Darksiders 2? CUNT
https://backloggd.com/u/Zelda/is this cringe or based? or are they lying?
>>719887925Game is trash and redditors are trying to defend it anyway they can.
>3.9 today>3.3 yesterdaymentally ill jannies
>>719926372>Played: 3158 lol.I saw one user at Backloggd who was 19 years old, he had more than 2000 games logged and a lot of them are long games.He has links to Anime profile, Letterboxd and Goodreads, the dude has more than 300 anime completed, more than 3k films watched and has read many books.He had a social media page where he reviews things and writes about them, but he does this on few titles, not much.At some point you realize this is a pseud, its fake when you think about it, you have like 19 years, and you have school time, so at least 6 hours a day are gone, another 6 for sleep, that leaves you with 12, if you spend 4 online that leaves you with 8, for about 10 years, thats impossible even if you no-life yourself inside your room, this shit is just not possible.At this point you realize this dude is fake and just pretends he completes them.Biggest clue was how much he changes his ratings, one month he is like this thing is 10/10 amazing, then 2 months later i find out that same thing is now rated 4/10 and 3/10. Dont be like this zoomer tard anons
>>719925509>its fine to like one or two games a lot, it happens, but if you consistently like mediocre games and lump them together with great games then thats a bad sign.Actually that's a good sign, it means you just have different taste. "Mediocre games" can still be good. And "good games" can be bad.
>>719926054not harsh its games I dont finsh how can i say loz the 64 game is one of the best ever when navi kept telling me the wrong thing to do as a kid and I turned aginst it after doing all the side bullshitthe witcher 3. played 10 hours of it got to the red barron and went this games gameplay sucksred dead 2 some of the worst gameplay controls that was so bad I got motion sick Ōkami tried it twice after 12hours on the 2nd go I went how long is this gonna go on for found out it was 40hours and just went no I dont wanna playP5 after the gym kiddy toucher it just felt boring and I stopped, its like do the same thing...again and I hated the gay teen girl dating shitFF7 dropped it at the prison camp, just went yeah thats enough (I love CC more)DS2 beat dark souls 2 and all its dlc before wanted to go back and play it for some reason and just went this game controls like shit I dont ever wanna play this againjak2 as a guy that loves jak1 alot 2 turning into gta3 (another game I think is meh) left me not happy then that bit with the guy with the shotgun I was like I dont wanna power though this and never played it againdarksiders is just like the okami/loz I am not a fan of these kinda games (I will keep playing these kinda games too find the one I end up liking)
>>719894647They added my unreleased indie game without me asking them. I felt important for a moment
>>7199267510.5 stars. Bad camera. Clunky controls. Blatant IRA propaganda
>needing a database to track your shit>needing others to discern if a game is good or not in 2025i might be an outlier but i have an amazing memory. idk.
>>719924064Good shit anon, here's minehttps://backloggd.com/u/Korja/
>>719897181if you use the word "chud" ironically or note, you're a fucking tool or useful idiot
>>719889407Anon... You need to stop breaching your containment
>>719926942I have an amazing memory too but no one can mentally keep track of 150+ things at once. It’s actually scientifically proven it’s impossible to have 100 friends
>use a shitty review site populated by zoomers and troons >complain There's a reason why Mal used to be mocked on /a/ you shouldn't use it.Just use mobygames/gamefaqs lists with a notepad like God intended. If you MUST use a site backloggery is the one with the least faggotry
>>719926372>https://backloggd.com/u/Zelda/I dont know he looks old enough to be a shut in loser that spends all his time playing gamesoh no its bullshit his played 3000 fucking games and not put down a single review look at the recent games played his just picking games out for some odd reason
>>719926942I need to remember that ecw for the ps1 is shit anon
>>719905129what's lost here is that this idiot was going around posting this on every single popular game's page
>>719926674I dont think so. Different taste doesnt mean you just rate like an idiot. You have to acknowledge your taste is different from the objective qualites of the game Even if you didn't enjoy a game you should be able to tell if its a good game or a bad game based on its merits and to dissects its raw game values and come up with the conclusion if its a bad or a good game.At the same time if a game you enjoyed so much you should be able to tell if its poorly made and poorly designed. That is good taste.If you rate randomly based on feels like some retard then that is bad taste
>>719926919Fuck you, let's see your game
>>719918128>>719922423
>>719926980I once when I was working KP, a waitress told me she played age of empires I had a gf at the time but I wanted to fuck her also saw her lace thong as she bent down for me
>>719927252do you think if you play SA right now anon you still give it a 5, cause I dont think I would
>>719927303It's a wonderful game. The last DLC was absolute shite though so we'll have to see if Microsoft ruins age of empires all over again. I really hope not, because if we had to switch back to fan servers there's zero chance we'd all agree on a good standard of where to cut off at
>>719887925I've never heard of this site before
>>719918128
>>719927242I rate based on objective qualities like whether you can drive a car or not. If you can drive a car, that's 5 stars. If you can't drive a car, that's 1 star. What's the point in playing a game if you can't drive a car?
>>719924662This. It’s fun to use and see your progress completing your backlog.
>>719927568>objective qualitiesGameplay design, Level design, Sound design, Art direction, Animations, Presentation..etc
>>719927753A car you can drive would be part of gameplay design. What I said is valid.
>>719926980Yeah I've seen you around and knew you were a /v/aggot. Based Pyre enjoyer.
>>719918128I am him. I AM HIM
>>719927568like another anon said I say to myself do I love game A as much as B, if I say no then game A is not a 4/5 whatever
>>719927487R4, REmake and Rez are for sure in my top 10.
>>719927930Completely irrelevant to whether the games in question let me drive a car or not.
>>719927884is god of war 2 really as good as 3I had 2 as 4or4.5 I just didnt see it as epic as 3
>>719927992so wildlands is better the MGSV
>>719928057To me, they're like Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal. A perfect game followed by a perfect sequel
>>719928158Both of these games let you drive a car, therefore they both get 5 stars. What is so hard to understand about what I'm saying?
>>719928201but you can fly in wildlands thats gotta be better
>>719928276I don't give a shit. I've already made myself clear on what matters most in a game.
>>719928181so when you was a little anon playing god of war 2, 3 is what you saw in your dreams
>>719918128Hot take, too many people on backloggd focus on highly curated 5 stars and then everything after that has a borderline arbitrary rating because of half stars. My take: Only use the 5 stars. 1 is bad, 2 is ok, 3 is good, 4 great, and 5 is amazing. You end up with more 5 stars by a lot, but the divides between good, great, and amazing start to mean more
>>719923748Yeah I've grown a distaste for the fucking word "auteur" because it tends to attract psueds and obnoxious types like flies to shit.>>719924064Oh nice, I follow you. Good taste.>>719924109Yeah haha it looks a bit stupid like that but one is for the NES and the other is SNES All-stars.
>>719928314but it has flying and boating it should be rated higher
>>719928359I played 3 first. I liked 3, and 2 was more of the same, so I liked 2
>>7199283823.5 stars is a 7/10. You can’t lump 3.5 and 4 (7 and 8) together. They’re distinct rankings that represent distinct levels of quality
>>719928445I'm sorry, but are you a fucking idiot? Or are you a child, maybe? The only criteria that matters is whether you can operate a **car**, not a boat, and not a plane.
>>719894207Nabiscoworld alone is around 200 games
>>719928382Yeah I can see the appeal, I use half stars and just use it like a 1-10 scale, but your system would make it much easier to confidently rate something.
>>719889407>I don't want toys>I don't want a product made for consumers>I want an e x p e r i e n c eSounds like Yahtzee circa 2010.
>>719928382for me only 3.6% is 5 starsI just dont see many games as that amazing playing mafia 3 rn and its like a 3 theres nothing outstanding about it, shooting is shit which is worse as i am playing it on hard like retard but its got me hooked its like a shitty ps2 game21.1 is 317.9 is 2.522 bewteen the 4s
>>719928576but a sea car and air car should be rated higher>>719928454I did the same
>>719928551But the 10 scale itself is nonsense. >6 and below is all dedicated to describing varying shades of "probably wouldn't play it" >Difference between a 7-8 and an 8-9 is completely incomprehensible. If a game is a highly anticipated enough release, a 7 functions more similarly to a 5 than a 7 typically does. A scroll through the average game review site or backloggd profile will start to reveal wild inconsistencies on what qualified as only as 7 star and what made an 8 star>>719928696I use it on my backloggd and it makes knowing the exact rating of a game very easy I never really need to think about it.>>719928819Maybe I just know how to pick em, haha
>>719929036I spend 1min looking at a gameplay trailer and go either yes or no, if a game cant get me to want it in a min its not worth my time
>850 games played>All those hours wasted on multiplayer shit I didn't like that much>I could've played hundreds of singleplayer games I would've loved insteadI'm not the only one, surely?
>>719929036I agree that many idiots misuse the 10 system, but if you’re smart (like me) it’s a good sort of tiering system. >10: Perfect. Both a personal favorite and an objective GOAT.>9: Just short of perfection. >8: A must-play, but not quite as passionately good as a 9 or a 10.>7: Still recommended, but not required. >6: Decent, but not really a recommendation one way or the other. >5: Average, which means boring and not worth your time, but not downright bad either. I’ll admit that 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 are superfluous, because what matters is that they’re bad and it’s not worth splitting hairs. But the 5-10 ranking system is still much more effective at properly articulating the nuances among above-average quality. I mean, what is a 2 on the 5 star scale? Average? Bad? There’s too much room for personal interpretation
>>719929538>900+ playedit was dota for me
>>719929538This was me circa 2013 or so>Play Nintendo games and some PC games with my friends growing up>Mostly multiplayer, Smash, Mario Kart, Air Ride, etc, don't have a ton of single player games, beat even less>Get into WoW during vanilla, was a big Warcraft 3 fan>Play through TBC, Wrath, have an amazing time>Cataclysm was real bad>Realize video games are my main hobby and I've played probably less than a hundred and beaten a tiny amount of gamesI felt brain damaged coming from over half a decade of MMOs into owning a Steam account and trying out lots of classics and indies and playing contemporary new releases regularly for the first time. I had no idea what a Metroidvania was and kept bouncing off them because I thought they were just slow platformers, I was too retarded to control CRPGs, etc
At what point does a mod count as another game?
>>719930141If it's a romhack? Pretty much immediately so long as it's not a total shitpost proof of concept no one would ever playIs it a PC game with many mods that can compound? Only full conversions like EnderalFor entirely logistical reasons
>>719918128part 1
>>719918128>>719930297PART 2
>>719929538>ARK Survival>World of Warships>League of LegendsARK was with friends on a private server, so it wasn't that bad I guess, we changed the settings to remove the retarded tame timers and dicked around, but damn we could've played anything else. League was a long time ago for me, I started in Season 3 and played off and on over the years. Years ago, a friend roped me back in, I carried myself from Iron to Gold with a 60~% winrate on Pyke before I realized I wasn't having fun, I probably would have made it to Plat but whatever I didn't care enough to try anymore. And WoWs I got roped in by the same guy, gave it a try and I enjoyed the naval combat, but all of the systems surronding the game are predatory and P2W, god we need a fucking naval combat game not owned by greedy wankers. Also wasted a countless amount of time on Runescape as a kid.>>719929636Yeah dota is one that sucks in a lot of people, I put in about a hundred hours and realized I wasn't having that much fun, but I'm also aware that's barely fucking anything in dota terms. dumb frogposter :^)>>719929947I'm glad you escaped the MMO-pit anon, sounds like you're enjoying vidya more these days.
>>719930141Something like Cry of Fear, Sven Co-op, and GMod are easily their own games
>>719930528i played thousands if hours 900 is the amount of games i played
>>719891484Does she have one or two?
>>719930528>I'm glad you escaped the MMO-pit anonYou never TRULY escape anon, but I have a lot more balance these days.
>>719930605Yeah I know, not sure if I conveyed that in my post properly, I'm retarded.>>719930669Well it sounds like you're not an absolute addict anymore so good for you. As long as it's something you enjoy and it's not an obligation, go for it."If it's not fun, why bother?" - Sun Tzu
>>719930141Is it just a skin swap? Not a new game.Does it change the style of the game completely with new skins on everything, but still retains the same level design? It's a new game ala Contra/Probotector.Anything beyond that is definitely a new game.
>>719890964late but you are so right holy shit thank you
>>719887925>Get followed>Follow back to be niceI shouldn't have done that for everyone that followed me, I need to purge my list. Some people put 0 effort into their reviews or try to be hilarous with a meme paragraph.
>Game has songs with vocals>Post my review>It's a line from one of the songs, and nothing else
>>719893991But why do you need to have some website track that you've played so many games? The amount of games worth remembering is not 200+ let alone 2000+.
Did Backloggd condense multiple versions of the same game into one listing yet?
>>719887925screenshots?
>>719933539Oh...looks like they didn't yet...
It's almost like gamers are deeply cancerous mentally ill people.

>>719933635Nah, but it's coming soon™ apparently.

>>719892092Severe low functioning autism.
>>719923748>merzbowwhat a throwback.
>>719892092Sometimes I'm legitimately playing 2-3 games at the same time. Like during my FF faze I was playing FFXIV Roulettes, FFXI Dynamis, & FFBE dailies at the same time.
>>719933539this will probably never happen since these retards use igdb instead of making their own database
>>719887925Why the fuck do you need a mal for video games you fucking retard.Are you playing 20 ching chong bong named games a year? No, you're not.Do you have a backlog tracker for movies as well because you are too senile to remember what fucking movie you watched or didn't watch?
>>719935273thisnot being able to add whatever game or whatever version/mod/hack/edition you want is the fatal flaw of every one of these servicesand as the thread shows all the communities are autistic (bad kind)
>>719933539its fucking annoying what fag reviews dlc
>>719935273The guy that runs the site is working on it currently>>719935814It pulls from igdb I think, if something isn't there anyone can upload it
>>719936010IGDB is cool to scrape from for Playnite or something, but >>719894647 >>719888624 we've already covered why relying on someone else's database is retardedUnless you want the social media features there's no online service that compares yet
>>719935702go back to sucking dicks on reddit
>>719936168Man, I love Playnite for all my emulated shit. But yeah, I can see the problem when they can just deny a submission because it doesn't align with their views.
>>719906049This isn't court. Nobody's conceding to you by not spoonfeeding you.
>>719936243The reddit dicks are right here thoug.
>dude just finish your backlog
>>719936964have you considered not adding any games to your backlog until you beat a few?
I don't give a shit about trannies and I've been posting 4chan lingo outside of here and have never been banned anywhere ever. If you're being an insufferable faggot you'll get banned and that's that. I've even seen trannies banned in so called safe spaces because they were acting like faggots and upset everyone else including other trannies.At the end of the day few people care if you're a chud or have a festering axe wound as long as you aren't annoying.
>>719890819...man, it really has been a while since I've seen "I'm better then you" fedora posting. In a weird way I miss it.Time flies.
>>719887925I use the site, but only for obscure games that don't get much fanfare. The rest is just underaged tendies and troons giving slop 5 stars because they're retarded.
>>719936964a very real painthere's too many games
>>719936562don't care, fuck off you avatar attention whore
what is the use case of adding porn games to your listwhy would I care to remember which porn games I've played or have it visible publicly and I mean actual porn games, as far as I can tell all horny games are on IGDB including many H visual novels as long as they're actual games so you can list that you've played Evenicle, for examplestuff that is missing seems to be all stuff like anime sex game #99 on steam and whatever you find on f95I'm not really seeing any games banned for wrongthink or explicit content
>>719937069but I don't want to forget them
>>719937387So I can see which ones I've played and which ones I want to playYou ever see how many games are in the /hgg/ pastebins? I can't remember all those moonrunes and 20 word titles on my own
rating every game you've ever played is autismwho gives a fuck if you think kid icarus on the nes is a 3 stars out of 5what does that do for the greater good
>>719935702>Do you have a backlog tracker for movies as well because you are too senile to remember what fucking movie you watched or didn't watch?I've watched like 800 movies so yeah.Some of them I remember the movie, but not the name. I can go back in the timeline to get the name.Experiences are also tied to points in time. Looking through my watch history can bring back memories of the period I watched them in, just like looking at photos or reading a journal entry.
>>719887925i track games like this + rate my autism
>>719937620Why play single player video games?
>>719937965soulfulDo you keep a separate txt for each game, series, or platform? I like the personal thoughts and notes but I can see it bloating a single file pretty big with hundreds of games
>>719937546why not keep them separate and use a notepad for h games?maybe I'm a faggot but for me the point of these lists is to show off and just link to people when they ask what games I recommend or played
>>719938131I'm one of the localfagsAll my H-Games are tagged separately so if I don't want to include Pettanko Park when I share a list I don't
>>719887925I just use retroachievements as a backlogged equivalent. I ignore modern games.
>>719938129one file for all gamesi only have like 30 games in it so it’s still kinda navigable to me, but it’s getting harder to search through
>>719887925>backloggd>MALThis whole thing is fucking retarded. Literally just create a text file on your computer and put your shit in there.>b-but I need to be able to see it from my 10 laptops and 50 phonesPut the file(s) into google drive/onedrive/syncthing.>b-but I need to be able to see it from my 100 laptops and 500 phones that aren't minePush the file(s) to a public git repo.There are 0 (zero) reasons for this to exist.
>>719888264>Dunno why you need more desuBecause I can sort by How Long To Beat estimates to pick a game that fits my schedule, since I'm not a bottom dwelling neatAnd no, your retarded solution you will inevitably reply with about manually searching and writing down every HLTB time in notepad is not a solution, it's a waste of time
>>719938742A text file doesn't have the cover images

>>719887925>long awaited game finally comes out>weird cavedwellers are crying about a review site because they can't ragebaitthe internet has done a number on your brain
>>719922094>People used to be laugh at for using MAL, why would this shit be even remotely ok?Because we're not fucking pathetic losers making every decision for what we do and like revolving around chasing anonymous approval from /v/ like you
>>719938742The social aspect of these sites is so you can hear about things you wouldn't normally hear about.Watch anime in a void and you'll miss good stuff because the synopsis sounds bad. Watch movies in a void and you'll miss good stuff because critics have no taste.
>>719929538You just played shit games The more games I play the more I realize that deep multiplayers games are far more fulfilling than 99% of single player games when it comes to interaction. Staying on a multiplayer pvp is unironically quality over quantity.
>>719887925I don't even know what MAL for video games implies, like the total featureset you want. I've been using backlog.rip lately, as I don't care about the platform having its own reviews or any of that shit. All I want is:>Status tags like "Backlog" "In Progress" "Completed" "Abandoned" "Skipped">Ability to filter by genre/tags>Ability to sort by HowLongToBeatThis site does all that (Most of them probably do, honestly) but it hasn't given me any of the various annoying issues so many other backlog sites do, like library not updating, shit resetting, endless interface bloat of needless features, poor filtering, fucking logging me out every 5 minutes, etc.
>>719938742>This whole thing is fucking retarded. Literally just create a text file on your computer and put your shit in there.No, you contrarian fucking retard
>>719939142>fucking logging me out every 5 minutesIt was rawg.io wasn't it?

>>719938832You can easily inline images in e.g. markdown or org.>>719939070If you're the type of autist that has a "backlog" then I really doubt you need more recommendations.>>719939745>beat the game>put its name into your text file>git add --all && git commit -m "beat peepee-poopoo ;)" && git pushDamn, that was hard.
>>719887925Fuck i wanted to write a webapp for this exact purpose...
>>719940008this but unironically
>>719887925Don't see the need for this for video games, either it was good enough to remember, it wasn't and I don't care, or it was so bad I wish I could forget. Video games are much more memorable than movies or tv shows that I can't recall forgetting about a game I've played as an adult. Plus every other format supports automatic adding, doesn't really work for video gaems.
>>719940028>git add --all && git commit -m "beat peepee-poopoo ;)" && git pushthis is still an unfilterable list with no art and all details and metadata I'd have to look up myselfI almost respect it more than backloggd but still doesn't beat playnite
>>719940247>playnitesite looks cool but does it support recommendations based on tags?
>>719940237weakIf you've been playing for generations it makes sense that you'll occasionally forget you ever really fucked with Zaxxon, its nice to have a record

>>719889407>We don't use "fun" here>I'm not autistic
>>719940472CTRL-F will work just fine for finding a game, but you can't change sort alphabetically, by date beaten, by date released, by completion status, or only see games from a certain platform ((((metadata)))). Having HLTB and cheevos are cool bonuses that also work, more features are nice.>>719940398It's more for tracking games you already know you want to play but there's probably a plugin for it>>719940582you got me honestly, I kneel
>>719887925What happened to warning and deleting the problem review? Why is banning the only action?
>>719938742FUCK OFF YOU TOOL!
>>719890819Reddit isnt this heckin spicy. That post would get you insta banned off Reddit for le heckin disturbing the hivemind collective utopia
>>719887925You niggas use gaming sites?
still waiting on that proof because a 3.9 is pretty low if they're supposedly banning anyone who rated it bad...
>>719940703You'll enjoy videogames more if you're in shape when you get old.
>>719941267or maybe I'll get blown to pieces in WW3, or get dementia/cancerso nah, I'll fully enjoy vidya while I'm still not (that) old, and enjoy vidya a little bit less when I get old
alright redpill me on playnitecan I actually add any game I have played or does it only show the games that are installed on your PC? because obviously there are hundreds of games that I played in the past but aren't installed on my computer right now
>>719941131nice theme, I really fuck with the Start Page plug-in myself
>>719941504>can I actually add any game I have playedYou can even add games you don't have with the right tools. You can also store offline game installers into a folder, get a plugin that scan them and have your own local library where you can install/uninstall games as you like.
>>719941734What plugin lets me do that? Basically I just wanna try and move my data from backloggd to playnite (played list and backlog list) but I don't have all of those games on my computer right now
>>719941941Simple Game Importer. Try to export the name of your games into a text file, paste it into SGI to add them into playnite. You can then download the metadata with playnite's built-in metadata downloader. If you want to install the games later down the line, you can use the Install Button plugin to add the game's executable exe into its entry in playnite.>>719941542I prefer things nice and simple.
Game hard != criticismGit gud or GTFO
>>719903728>The Buldak experience
>>719895357Or Miiverse giving you a symbol showing you own the game when you comment on it.RIP that place.
Here's a pro tipThe owner of backloggd is a /v/ nigger, literally all you have to do is email the guy and tell him about your /v/-tier account and how it's making his tranny moderation seethe, he will grant you immunity and assure you that your account will never get banned for shitposts, trolling or other rating shitSource: I did it myself when I was getting mass-reported by a group of trannies and my account was constantly getting deactivated
>game log sitesStill think this is dumb, but then I'm a casual pleb where gayming is concerned.RYM for music + film, LibraryThing for literature. That's all you need.
I like it because it's nice to reflect on what I played and I genuinely enjoy reading other people's reviews, even if they are utterly retarded. there is a reddit-like mentality on the site that means losers try outdo each other for Facebook likes usually by posting about how X or Y game is liberating for us Xisters and how PEAK its messaging is while having the most dogshit gameplay in the world 1000xResist for example. Red flags of users for the funniest reviews:>anime pfp>transflag pfpthats it thats all you have to look for and block if you want the site to be betterwell that and the faggots who think their reviews are high art like that redbackloggd guy who stalks new users and grooms them into writing reviews he agrees with
>>719938742why are you here on this fingerbox forum social website for talking about games when you could just mumble to yourself in your room, anon?
>>719889407>>719890964damn, i'll have to remember this the next time essayfag wants to blog on /v/. this sounds exactly like his sort of "people".
>>719943136> that redbackloggd guy who stalks new users and grooms them into writing reviews he agrees withQrd?
>>719943809>>719889407akanta wiped his entire account and cut off all connections he had to the tranny xiyan cult because of /v/He pretends to be a different person called jightrigero now, he doesn't even acknowledge the existence of xiyan these days to distance himself from /v/
>>719944006Also forgot to mention - he unfollowed / blocked the entire xiyantroon cult/v/ really destroyed that shit game's community, especially after that one thread where we were being raided by akanta's discord and that anthony guy's discord at the same
>>719943885https://backloggd.com/u/RedBackLoggd/>finds new users reviews>hypes them up for a week or two>suddenly turns on them and picks every tiny thing apart>gets mad if you don't treat every game like it's some carefully crafted art piece deserving of deep discussionanyone on the site longer than a month has him blocked he is very notorious
>>719944843Is that what happened with you? He seems like a pretty normal guy from the profile and activity
>>719940472Stop asking the same fucking question you retarded, irritating dipshit. We're not going to conform yo your pathetic /v/ attention seeking contrarian personality
>>719945206i have never interacted with him but he was a hot topic in the backlogged discord for those reasons even many of the troons dont want to deal with him
>The same people telling you to drop your function OS and spend 14 hours a day fixing the fork of the week troonix distro to slap 20 compatibility layers over a game to make it work are also telling you that having a data keeper site is a waste of time compared to typing out 40 different details about every game into a notepad fileOf fucking course lmao
>>719929538No? I love games, and I don't see it as a race to play the highest number of games possibleAlso, 850 games is an insanely high number dude. Your average enthusiast hasn't played anywhere that many games. I wager to say even streamers who can afford to play games 8 hours a day everyday don't reach those numbers
