Do you think you need more games?

[EsotericAnthropologist]

I have a huge Steam library I've built up over the decade, some of the games I've barely played or haven't touched in years.

 

A couple of weeks ago I had some memes and lore videos of a game I hadn't played in 5 years (Kenshi) get recommended to me on YouTube. I forgot how cool the game was, and decided to jump back into it and have been playing it a ton since. I now also have the urge to play a ton of other games I already have once I find the time and get bored of Kenshi again, but this coupled with the fact that many games coming out today are crap, I've realized I have probably enough games to last me the rest of my life. I may occasionally buy a new one (got friends bugging me to get Helldivers 2), but other than maybe 1 game a year or something like that, I feel like I don't need any more.

 

Does anyone else feel the same? I'm only 25 and feel like I've got a game library for life. Or are there 40 year-olds in here that buy the new Sportsball Manager 20XX every year?

It's not uncommon to feel like you have more than enough games, especially if you've been building a library over a long period. Many gamers find themselves in similar situations where their backlog is so vast that it seems it could last a lifetime.

hell, Im in this situation myself, I think my games collection is at if not over 1k games. 744 on steam and then at lease a few hundred across the other platforms (EA, Battlenet, EPIC, etc....). I am actually thinking of doing an alphabetical run through of my games and uploading the play through to youtube...but here is the sad state of my current games folders. 

All the drives with Red around them are NOTHING but games

 

The drives currently total 18TB of space and of that I am using approximately 11.6TBs and im still not fully installed

Similar to the feeling of playing an io game, going back to favorites like Kenshi can be surprisingly fun. Enjoy your huge library of games, and only buy more when you really need it.

It's normal to feel as though you have an excessive amount of games, particularly if you've been slowly accumulating a library. Similar circumstances arise for many gamers, whose backlog is so large that it seems to go on forever.
