Hello,

I've been collecting some steam games(only have 600) I've got my games from humble bundle and steam idle services.
600 games is not that much ngl, I wish i could get like 5k games.
So to you all game collectors do you have any other websites where you can buy cheap games?

As somebody who has been chasing that dragon for quite a while myself I only have one advice for you:

Don't.

Sorry, I know that is not the advice you were looking for but sooner or later you are bound to realize how utterly pointless it is. Better to rip off that bandade now rather than after you spent several hundred dollars or even grand on it.

Also don't forget about the time.
Over the years I must have spent like 300+ hours picking up freebies and searching for the best prices on games I might not ever have the chance to play.

Damn, I could have probably finished Horizon: Zero Dawn in that time (Completionist playstye) 😅

But ultimately of course it's up to everybody themselves what they want to spend their time and money on. That was just my personal experience.

there isn't many in this list but you don't have to spent a cent for it so you might want to check it out: https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/fZdnc/free-steam-games-that-add-1-to-steam-games

Except for some bragging rights, it don't mean nothing. There is no point in collecting games on steam since most of them are nothing but trash. I try to remove games permanently from my account sometimes, my current game count is 581 and I wish I could bring it down to 100 to 150 and wipe out the rest in a minute if I could. The only thing that is stopping me from doing that is that the whole process of removing a game permanently from steam account is very tedious. Look at it this way, should something happen to you, what was the use of spending all that money or time in games, or collecting games for that matter.

So therefor noone should ever start a collection, no books, games etc? You could always pass it on to someone else, is that legal with steam? Who cares.

So you support wasting money and time in collecting games you don't like or wouldn't bother to have physical copies of, good to know

Don't be putting words into my mouth that i wouldn't like certain games. And i don't know why physical copies have anything to do with anything? I am glad i i don't got craploads of shelves taking up boxes anymore yeah.

You missed the bundle hausse, tremorgames is dead where you could do tasks for games, only option is keyreseller sites and even then gets expensive. Honestly i don't know how i got 10k, but expect years to get to that. :p
There is the DIG store and russian sites that will sell you games for cents but they usually don't count as +1 for steam.

I knew someone else on steam that wanted 5000 games somehow (without even the need to play) he bought alot in the last summer sale.

Not sure if this will work but can't you just play f2p game and then it will add +1 to your game list?
