What about franchises that change developers? Like Arkham Origins? The franchise would be split.

and them i have the favorites for the games i want to play next, the co-op for wel, the co-op games :D
and the casual, for some indie games i like to play sometimes

It seems very personal for me. Sometimes I would look for the developer name but it would be inside the coop genre, for example.
Comment has been collapsed.
yes, i have the games at their developer category and those i play co-op i put the at co-op too :D

I don't :) Sometimes I use this site: Steam library filters
Comment has been collapsed.
this should be implemented on the steam client itself, its ridiculous that valve has tags for you to browse on the store, but u cant apply those same tags to filter ur own library...

Completed
Multiplayer
SG Wins (will add general gifts to this I think also :o)

Pretty good. That should work well for you, but sadly, not for me :(
Comment has been collapsed.
100%ed (= all cards and achievements)
Achievements
Childhood
Co-op
Controller Support
Cross-platform Multiplayer (bc I'm a Linux gamer this is relevant to me)
Finished (story wise, but not yet 100%'ed cat. worthy)
Free To Play
Local co-op
Multiplayer
Partial controller support
Trading Cards
And then again by genre.
I use Big Picture Mode to pick multiple categories (for example, I want to play a game with friends, I check the local co-op box, then if they prefer a controller I can also check the controller support box)

The Free To Play category wouldn't do you much good unless you owned DLC or kept them all installed, because otherwise they'd vanish from your library.
Comment has been collapsed.
(Also includes free games) yes I keep some installed :)

As I type these out, I realize the library kind of needs an overhaul again. Some categories seem redundant.
AAA Backlog - AAA games I want to play the most
Completed - Obvious
Indie Backlog - Indie games I want to play the most
Installed - Games always installed to pickup anytime, multiplayer games, endless games, etc
In Progress - Games I started and liked, but for whatever reason never continued
Other Backlog - Games I have interest in playing, but less interest than the AAA and Indie backlog games
Play for SteamGifts - Any game I won here that has yet to go into a category
Significant Progress - Games I started and made real progress in
Uninterested - Games I won't ever play
GAMES - games not yet categorized
Comment has been collapsed.
Default categories. No way to get rid of the SteamVR category. Search feature is my friend.

Just hit 900 games, so I'm not even trying. Generally I install only the ones that I play, in the event of them maybe getting achievements later down the road I keep the installed and return to them upon seeing them getting updated, but that's about it.

Here's what mine looks like right now...
The ">" and "z" characters are used only to send categories to the top/bottom of the list. Shame steam doesn't let you sort these, or at least let you rename categories.
Comment has been collapsed.
I make categories for each month and mark it when when i acquired the game. So this month goes into the 2016-05 category. I also have a steamgifts category where I put games I've won from here.
Comment has been collapsed.
I thought on doing this, but franchises would be severely split and it would be hard to remember when I acquired a game that I don't play for 3 years.

I organise it by genre (e.g point and click, fps, simulation, adventure, open world, platformer) then put a 2 behind those that looks not as fun if each genre overcrowds (e.g point and click 2, fps 2) and i also have a indie spares (for game i dont think i will ever play). And a 'A Games' tag for games that I think are interesting.

I don't. I just use desktop shortcut icons, the "old way" ^^

What about a game that is an action, adventure, open world, indie, mmo. Like Trove?
Comment has been collapsed.
Personally I put such games in all categories they fit in. I don't care if my games are in multiple categories, though I do understand this method is not for everyone.
Comment has been collapsed.
well it must be famous with something like if it's mmo then it's mmo no matter what if it's action and adventure too

I'm currently running out of ideias on how to organize my library. I think i could take a few suggestions. So, how do you organize? And what are the pros and cons of organizing the way you do?
