I would have recommended that one, but I hadn't fully read the OP.

Try Niche - a genetics survival game. It's more strategic than you may think. Choose your breeding partners carefully, mutate genes and spawn healthy and useful offspring! And most important of them all - remember about diversity! The game is awesome in many aspects, maybe at the beginning it's a bit hard to get into it but later it's magnificent! Everything is turn based so there's no rush and the depth of the game is simpli amazing. I can't recommend it strong enough!

very good advice for most things in life, I would say

i sometimes use the list view to load more titles at once, its also easier on the eyes to find something, but.... always a but, you miss the thumbnails which i like to see. yes, gog has to do something about sorting better, both for library and reviews. its getting ridiculous


oh and gratz on the collection, its always nice to know you own these outright (if you make sure you have them downloaded somewhere) in case shit happens, and it always happens eh

Well, first of all, I game 24/7. I am disabled, and gaming is.... my life. So I have way, way, WAY more time to game than anyone else (luckiest man in the world!). Secondly, I've been disabled since 1999. Now the first two years of that time were spend more in therapy and TV than gaming, but I soon learned that TV was NOT going to cut it. In fact, I literally felt like I was going insane watching so much TV. It requires NO response. You just sit there and take it in.... eh. Not for me. So I started gaming seriously. And discovered when I got into games... I didn't hurt anymore. I didn't think about the fact I couldn't walk much if at all. I forgot all about the fact that I can't do a lot of things was instead focused on what I COULD do in gaming. It IMO was my personal savior.

So the other big thing to understand from that is that maybe 15, maybe even more, percent of my games are games I've played before and played during all of those years of gaming but purchased again so I never had to tweak them to get them to run on newer systems or installed them from disk only to have to chase down all the patches. And I very very often go back and play games I've played before. (Fallout 1 for example I know I've played at least 8 times. Betrayal at Krondor is another at least 7 or 8 times, including a couple since purchasing them from gog).

And then I'm also counting as "playing" any game I've downloaded and started. I've purchased games that I end up... not really liking all that much. So, if I play 30 minutes, decide I didn't like it that much... then I may be done with it... but I still count it as played because I at least tried it and experienced it. And my standards for being a happy purchaser are low. If a game gives me at least say 6 to 10 hours of that feeling I described above (where I forget everything and I'm just in the game) then even if I don't finish it or play it any more because it just didn't hold me... then to me... it's still a positive purchase. If I payed $9.99 got 10 hours of it it... that's $1.00 an hour. Hard to find any other avenue of entertainment for that value especially considering 0 travel and gas.

But yeah, if you wanted to know how many I finished... it's certainly less than 15%. Less than 10% in fact. Actually it may even be 5%. (5% of 1200 is what... 60?). That probably is pretty close. I think I've probably finished more than 60 of them... but I doubt if it's over 100.

ADDED: Oh I noticed you mentioned Steam... my Steam collection is NOTHING like this. GOG is my home lol. I boycotted Steam and all developers who exclusively sold there for the first lots of years so my GOG collection had a yuge (to quote a certain tweeter) head start. And when I finally decided the horse had left the barn and consumers had decided to stupidly okay the Steam thing then I started buying a few that were exclusive to there. There may another 50 games there (maybe 100) that you could add as played. No more than that. Probably less than 50 though.. I'm not sure. LOL I was going to have a baseball themed regular season giveaway a few years ago where I gave away prizes every day and every week and every month for the six months of baseball season... so I bought LOTS and LOTS of bundles all over the webs. But turns out baseball is not very big here and I gauged the interest as not being worth the trouble so... I gave away a lot of them but then just added them to my Steam account. So I have a few hundred games listed in my Steam account... but well over half (maybe 3/4 or more) are these games that I never really thought I'd play and never have. My Steam account is a mess. lol. Don't care much about it. Fallout 4, Skyrim, and Motorsport Manager are mostly it for me at Steam. Well, that and Fallout 3 and Fallout NV too because I can't get the GOG versions of those two to run on my laptop.

And they keep saying that games are a waste of time. You can learn a valuable lesson by playing Niche ;)

Ok that probably explains most of it. I'm doing that (installing a new game just to quickly check it out) much much MUUUCH less nowadays, I've become more "organized" with my gaming, having only a few games or sometimes even one game that I am actively playing, and move to other games only when I am done with it (either finished, or seriously bored or frustrated by it).

Also, there many times tend to be some games that have been serious time-wasters, eating too much time from any other games. Once it used to be Doom 1-2 with loads of user made extra levels and total conversions, then after I started playing Quake Team Fortress online (and later Team Fortress Classic, and nowadays Team Fortress 2), they eat far too much of my total gaming time. No wonder then if I finish my single-player games so slowly. Sometimes some single-player games are so good though that I forget about TF2 totally.

Well, my Steam collection, while "big", is still much smaller than my GOG collection. 486 Steam games, just checked (compared to 1432 GOG games). And I think most of those Steam games are Humble Bundle games that I've activated also on Steam, and quite many are also games I also have on GOG, and would end up playing the GOG version anyway.

For a very long time I only played Team Fortress 2 on Steam, but a few weeks ago I installed and started playing Age of Empires 3 there. Also I do have several Steam games I really should play at some point, like Dark Souls and such.

Make sure you backup your collection btw, just in case something happens. It'd be a crying shame to lose your collection (though admittedly many can probably be found on "sites").

Apparently, it was originally released on PC, as simply Gauntlet, then was ported to the PS4 with the "Slayer Edition" subtitle. Presumably, either content from that version was added (or made available as DLC) to the PC version, or it was simply back-ported as a separate edition.
In any case, at least the presence of the subtitle lessens confusion, given how many Gauntlet games there have been over the years. :)
