Sort/order NOT installed library games by size?

Open
malabagaa

As title says, is there a way to sort owned games by their disk size requirements?
The Steam clients allow me to do so only for installed games, doesn't give any info on size for the remaining titles.
A quick search pointed me to Steam Gauge but its data do not seem always correct, nor they are complete.

Bonus question!
Do you know a place where one can see their Steam account level history?
There's an option to see it right here on sg, but it doesn't seem accurate.. or am I wrong?

Probably not what you're looking for, but HLTB (howlongtobeat) has a Steam part where it interacts with your library. I'm not aware of all the filters but if it isn't helpful now it may be when deciding which one to play based on time to complete.

Steamrep? does it have an historic log? hmm SG only shows about SG, ie: the time since your registration.. Not sure if there's such a site. Think it's both hard to implement and a huge security/privacy thing..

Good luck OP

Thanks :)

Unfortunately, HLTB doesn't show sizes info because it's not strictly related to Steam (meaning you can also add other platforms' games).
I already check their times before starting a game, to have a rough idea of what awaits me, but their times are a bit too fast for me, I tend to look at Astats' ones too, before deciding if they can be reliable.
Lately though, disk space has started to be quite a problem.. I need to buy a new one but I kind of can't right now, so I'm trying to save some space =P

Checked Steamrep but in that historic log you mentioned it shows me a "?" in place of my level.. perhaps they do not save that info :\
Well, if you check your stats you can see a graph of your Steam level.. I just don't know if it can be trusted..

It looks like this graph is build with your badges info. Each badge has info about how much exp it gives, and when you crafted it. But there is no info about when you crafted lvl 1 of this badge (and got your first 100exp), when you crafted lvl 2 (and got the second 100exp) and so on. So the graph is not very accurate.

I don't think there is a way to get the correct history for the level. Only if you were logining each day on some site which is saving that history, don't think that such sites exist.

"If you go to library and use 'list view' (accessible using the circled button) , then right click in the bar which says Games/Status/Metascore you can select the displayed columns. Click on 'Size on Disk' so that appears as a column, then click on the column header to sort."

I already have that column active but it only shows the size of installed games :\

Thanks for your help though :)
