Indeed :D

I'm really glad that I already own The Dig on CD, otherwise I'd have bought it again right away without a moment of hesitation. This is exactly the kind of game that needs to be on here, an overlooked classic in desperate need of a revival.

Just bought Legend of Grimrock 2. That make number 203 of GOG games for me. Help!

Plus I have this great fear of GOG going under. What then? It's like all those infernal Windows upgrades and you old games would not work anymore. Even if I downloaded every game, what if I need a re-download? I just hope I live that long :)

fista1.103: I enjoy buying games so I won't stop, but I'll give an advice for those who want to stop buying games thoughtlessly: Don't buy games if you already have plenty of games you haven't played yet, even if they are on sale.For example, I bought Lichdom: Battlemage on Steam during the Winter Sales 2014. Now I am a bit sad, because this game appeared on GOG last week. If I didn't buy that game back then, I could wait and buy it here DRM-less. The only think that I comfort myself with is that I bought it with 66% discount, whereas on GOG it was "only" 60% off.
Wise words, man.

Really tempted to buy FEAR series in bundlestars.com which is only 6 bucks as compared to the FEAR 1 and 2 which is 10 bucks and missing FEAR 3.

My point of view is that if you plan to buy and play immediately, then it's fine. If you want to buy just because they're games you might want to play at some point, then it's not justified.

Resisted the Groupees Spring Fling Adventure Bundle. It's only $1.50 for 14 adventure games, only 5 of which I have, but I have so many adventure games I've yet to play and I'm unlikely to get to these second rate games.

I use the Oscar Wilde strategy to game buying addiction.

That could be applied to anything... games, social media usage, junk food, beer, cigarettes, heroin, 'ladies of the night' etc etc etc

Good for the economy. ;)

When in doubt. Buy games for other people. We usually appreciate it and you get the satisfaction of making oother people happy without technically being and "addict" ;D

The_Blog: Great tip :)

@ALL
A great programm to categorize your steam library is Depressurizer!
It makes it possible to manage Categories more easily and to automaticly categorize your games based on Community and Store Tags.
It needs 5 minutes to get into the whol UI but after that it is pretty great.
*Link* to Git-Hub Page of Depressurizer.

Picture of my 527 Steam games sorted in the attachments. ^^
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Solved all my problems categorizing my over 400 games on steam and GOG. I use steam as launcher for GOG games, until the GOG launcher comes out.


... and yes, I need this support group, too. I have more games, than I am able to play for the rest of my life. But I cannot resist extrem cheap sales.

Glad I was able to help :)

I hate missing sales of stuff I actually plan to consume. Just posting here because I didn't know where to post (and a bump never hurts). There was a sale of three Ursula Le Guin audiobooks at Downpour, and because I've had a high fever for quite a few days now I'm not really following stuff that well or doing much, so although I knew about it I ended up missing it.
