I'm just curious how many of you guys use this tool and how do you usually manage them.
Would you mind to share yours?

Games that I often play or currently playing are on my Favorite list.
I also group my games to "Cleared", for 100% cleared games.

Favorites is favorites.
For games I really like or enjoyed to play, finished (uninstalled) or not. :)

I actually don't use these tagging features o.o I just have my games, and then "shared" games with my brother through family sharing

No but I probably should start using it because I have so many games on backlog...

I used to tag games, back when I only had a hundred or so...

Then I switched computers and the tags didn't follow, and between that and my rapidly expanding library killed that off pretty quick. :3

Hmmm, I haven't even noticed that Favorites tag. I categorize my games by genre, finished and "hell no" (games with cards that were freebies or in a bundle which I'd never play).

Favorite equals my games being played / installed / soon to be installed, works well I think. Then I've got the other 6 categories:

Games Well Rated / To Play
Games maaaybe to play (early access / minimal reviews)
Games not to touch

Replayable Games (Counterstrike, Binding of Isaac, TF2, Dota, FTL, etc - pick up and play when I feel like it)
Games Already Played
Games Tried (but not enjoyed enough to put in the time to consider 'played')

I sort games by achievement completion. So no. I like way to many games. The games I'm really fond of are saved in my brain.

Yup. Usually for games I've played at some point but haven't 100%'d in achievements so as to remind me to go back to it at some point in time.

This is how I do it:
every game that cant fit in any of the categories, stays at Games.

It's really the only way to keep things organized. New games get right-clicked and marked as a favorite, of course that includes all the games I'm playing or are on my backlog. Everything else gets neatly tucked under the Games tab, which I leave collapsed.

From the top to the bottom :

  • "Favorites" (called "Mes favoris", I'm French) for the good games I'm currently playing.
  • "Maybe" ("A voir") for the games I may or may not play on day, depending of my motivation, my boredom, the state of the "Favorites" category.
  • "Paused" ("En pause") for the games I've started then stopped,but I want to finish one day.
  • The "Saga ..." categories ("Saga Hitman", "Saga Stalker", etc). Because it looks kind of organised (even if some games can appear in the other categories too, like ""Paused").
  • "Completed" ("TerminΓ©"), with or without the completion of the achievements (I don't really care about that).
  • "Trash can" (called it "Trash can" too because I didn't find a word in French starting with T, U, V, etc, to illustrate this category of abominations that has to be in the bottom of my list, after the "TerminΓ©" category). All of the games I want to forget.

I just go by what I have installed on Steam, Origin, and Uplay

On GoG I have 2 separate tags. "Noplay" and "Backlog". "Noplay" means I beat it or don't want to play it. "Backlog" is self explanatory.

I only use categories, and yank games I'm playing right out of categories so they're on the bottom and when I finish them I shove them in the 'Finished' category.
Only time I used the Favorite function was by misclick when I meant to click on Set Category :-)

I use it to have easier access to the games I play a lot at the moment.

Favorites; Games I plan to play more of and probably finish
Beaten: Games I've totally beaten
Ignore: Games that I actively don't want to play again
Mediocre: Games that I might play more of, but don't really feel the urge to finish
Trial: Games I haven't played at all

I use the hide function for games that I don't need at all - Betas, old versions of games that get remastered, the separate mac versions that the GTA games used to have, and so on.
