HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO ORGANIZE MY GAMES FOLDER
>>732555775THE SAME WAY YOU ORGANIZE YOUR DILATORS OP
>>732555775What's a "folder"?
>>732555775What the fuck is there to organize? Just make a folder "vidya" on your desktop and put shortcuts in there
>>732555775This but my 4chan folder.
Playnite. Now fuck off.
>>732555775>anon's reaction when i poke my penis into their stupid sissy eyes
>games folderI know what ye arr
>>732555926>not leaving it all spread out on the desktop like a lan houseISHYGDDT
alphabetically
>>732556269In fact I do that but since the OP wanted some organization I suggested the folder. I also have all memes and clipboard stuff just saved straight to desktop
>new folder>rename it to "games">dump all of your games in itIts easy. I dunno why you retards make shit so complicated
Evengelion sucks but kare kano is incredible as fuck.
>>732556451This, the only real organization you need is to have Windows and everything else on separate partitions so that you can format and reinstall the OS without touching your stuff
Downloads folder
>>732555775Just make a "Games" folder on the root of your drive, drop shit in, then delete stuff whenever you need space.
>>732556391>colt.jpg>images.jpg>Israeli Talent>stoneshard>vJoy>collapseof....I like what I'm seeing. My desktop is crap cause I usually don't use icons
>>732556451Because people love doing needlessly neurotic micro managing things in a desperate attempt to have some semblance of control over their lives
>>732555775>foldersyeah right go to bed unc
>>732555775Ermmmm the way I do it is I have a separate SSD for vidya with a folder structure as follows:>Abandon (games that are abandonware / gog / pirated are installed here)>Emu (all roms for emulators, further organized in subfolders by platform ie duckstation, pcsx2, yuzu etc)>Launcher (containing the 3 subfolders below)>>Origin (I prefer to buy shit that has the EA 3rd party launcher like Crysis 3 or Mass Effect 3 here rather than on Steam because I hate having to open 2 launchers, also some games like Syndicate 2012 are only available here)>>Steam (main library and source of my vydyas)>>Ubi (same reasoning as origin except with uplay this time, stuff like Asscreeds 2 onwards and Far Cry 3 onwards)Also got a "Games" folder on my desktop featuring shortcuts to all my installed games, organized by genre
If your game collection isn't organized like picrel you're a normalfaget
>>732555775C:/Games/GOG for GOG offline installer pirated vidyaC:/Games/Other for SCENE / CSF+Goldberg/Steamless offline installer/dir pirated vidyaC:/Games/Piracy for pirating tools such as manifestViewer, Goldberg Emulator forks, Steamless, etc.C:/Games/Modding for modding tools such as MO2, xEdit, Script Extenders, Toolkits and Toolsets of games, etc.>C:/Games/Backlog.txtList of vidya installed with name, dev team, year of initial pc release, metacritic rating of initial pc release>D:/Backup/Games/Downloadsfor all the backups of downloads on different drive
>>732555775You could use steam like every normal human being, but I'm guessing you're a broke brownoid mutt.
>>732555775LRU
>>732556975>I usually don't use iconsYeah me neither, I just save shit there and use it mostly as an extended clipboard or just another folder where I keep stuff in case I want to send it to a friend over telegram or shitpost on 4chan etcWhen it's full I just send them all to a folder in my storage drive, the folders are named desktop-dd-mm-yy and so far I have never even opened a single one of them
>>732555775
>>732555775You think that's bad? Try doing it with Hgames. "Oh that's easy, just sort them by main theme" to which I then, naturally, reply "But what then, pray tell, of the ones that have two main themes, such as tentacle + huge titties?"
>>732555775By getting gud at pattern recognition, bitch.
>>732555775By genre, dumbass.
>>732557920then you sort them by color instead of theme
>>732557535reminds me of fargo's mod for terraria
>>732555926>>732556269>
>>732557535Is this the map/graph/flowchart for most of the most important and fundamental chemical compounds known to man
>>732558121Obviously the software stuff inside should be somewhat organized but if you just put all your games into one bucket titled vidya you can just organize the shortcuts instead, making the whole process far simpler than organizing them under the hood
>>732556391>jupiter wallpaperWhat the fuck, that's my thing, fuck off
>>732558278I'm a sucker for planets and "Gustav Holst - Planets" and "Jupiter, Bringer of Jollity" from the Planets suite is probably my favorite piece of music ever. I think Jupiter is big enough for the both of us.
>>732558121I struggle to believe this. Only mobile phone users who never veered outside of them would struggle with this.
>HOWEVER, 4X MONEY FOR GTA+
>>732559727Oh fuck wrong thread lol
>>732559775Stupid fucking Pleposter.
What is there to organize?downloads <- downloads foldergames <- games folderroms <- games/emulation folderquake mods <- games/quakedoom mods <- games/doomAnd so forth
>>732560321But you can't organize the shit like that with steam games for example. Steam games go to the games folder and the mods folders go into game/mods folder? Or a steamgame/game/mods folder?
>>732555775Don't have any games you aren't currently playing installed, simple
>>732557026>>732557784Some people like to own their games, not rent them like a serf
>>732561001It's pretty grim how nowadays even if you buy a "physical copy" you are forced into interacting with some sort of online storefront. The only way you can truly own a game nowadays is to pirate it, ironically.
>>732560401I don't even bother trying to organize steam stuff but mods do go on games/mods
>>732562003tbdesu I find it appalling how strict Steam is with the folder structure. You can have Steam and the games folders on however many separate partitions or drives you want but the steamapps/common/game/ is way too many folders deep if you want to mod the games. Practically mandatory to have a separate game mods folder structure higher than any steam folder structure to keep any kind of order with the games and their mods.

>>732559458>>732562319Unfortunately many people born earlier than smartphones suddenly lose their ability to read or think when a computer says something unexpected.>"Press Enter to continue">WHAT DO I DO
>>732558121>they see it like one bucket and everythings in the bucketHow is that wrong? You can have other smaller buckets in that bucket but the explanation is correctDont pretend you dont have New Folder with a bunch of random shit
>>732558121>he thinks his HDD / SSD isn't just a giant bucket
>>732555775you just start doing shit and then you iterate on it then you reflect and iterate again until you end up with a funcitoning system.
>>732562238You can make symbolic links if you wanna keep mods all in one place
>>732565552Please elaborate, I don't know what 'symbolic' means in this context
>>732557248I have a games folder for installed/unpacked games + steam/gog.I have a general downloads folder with another games/ subdir where I download unpacked games and roms, romhacks, translations, mods etc.Roms are also placed on my NAS so I can access them from any device (pc, deck, mister, ps2, wii u, xbox etc)
>>732555882I think it is a word that is common among the poor.
I organize by genre and sequel release.All stealth games together, jrpg, open world games, shooters, character action, racers, fighting games.
