Ability to mark games as owned/ignored
Added by
navara I have few games on other sites/CDs than gog and I would like to mark them as "owned (elsewhere)", so I would see them grayed out on listings.
Maybe also flag "ignored" for games, which I just know that doesn't call to me. Those could be hidden from listings (and visible only somewhere in settings, to put them back).
What about option to hide owned and ignored games, so I can just browse rest of the site and when I'm done with browsing and flagging, I will easily see newly added games?
/ Also option to keep paragraphs displayed as I entered them, insted of condesing everything into single sentence. Its ugly to see and it's ugly from you to do /
GingerGiant Just chiming in with my two cents that I would very much like to see this feature come to fruition. GoG is by far and away my preferred distributor and I would love to make more purchases here, but the current store experience makes searching through product a chore because I have to spend a majority of my time sorting through all the titles I don't want to find even a few titles I have middling interest in. Add to that the frustration that the store does not keep accurate track of which content I own necessitating keeping personal track of which DLCs and upgrade packs I still have to avoid, and it strongly disincentivizes me from spending time and subsequently money on here. Please, GoG, I'm begging you. Make my shopping experience smoother so I can give you more of my money.
whythecynic The lack of this feature is the main reason I don't shop on GOG more. Whenever I open the store, the first things I see are games that I don't want, and haven't wanted for years, sometimes decades, and this goes on for pages and pages of browsing. That immediately sets things off on the wrong foot. I want to buy games! You're making it difficult for me to give you money!
SirDuncan Lack of this feature is the main reason i dont browse the shop so often.
MGN001 Ok, so, here's the thing about this. It's not just a pro-consumer move, it's also in the best interests of the business to implement. A web store allows you to present your products in a dynamic fashion. You already do this via modules such as "Featured / Franchises for you".
If a game that I definitely do *not* want is displayed, it is taking up a space that could be filled by an item that I *might* want. If you allow me to tell you "Hey, no matter how much you show this game to me, I will never buy it," you can fill the slot it was in with something else. Something I might want. Every game I mark ignore is another opportunity to show me something I might actually want. Something new. Something enticing. Something other than a thing that I know I will not buy, if only I could tell you that.
MolodyiGamer63 I want to have the opportunity to disable games that are made in russia from my vision here in the store. I hate such games and developers and publishers so I want to IGNORE such games and I need special option to do that - IGNORE function/button like in the Steam store!!!!!!!!!!
I already made Ignore list in my notepad for russian games, rus developers, rus publishers, so I will NOT buy their games and now I need ignore button to make all russian content banned!
Zukzuk Please...?
See, I also said please.
Kanlep How come only 636 people found this feature interesting?
DrSousa Please?
Has no one said "please"?
Is that it?
Charodiy_UA That will be an excellent feature, so when it is implemented I would be able to block games that I hate (especially damned ruSSian games - made by ruSSians or published by them or games where ruSSians are described like heroes. But everyone today knows that ruSSians are brainwashed cannon meat, not more).
SvitlaSveta4 I want such a feature - have an opportunity to ignore games (and DLCs for the games). I want to have the option to HIDE/Ignore games that were made by russian developer teams or published by russian publishers because everyone who buys such games becomes a sponsor of a russian state - complicit in the actions that russia is doing on the territory of Ukraine (invest in terror)!
The Steam store has such an option so Gog you are next.

antonio_g_mad 6 years waiting this feature....
dnovraD Second to Ignore Game/Ignore Developer/Ignore Publisher. Being able to just put a SEP field over the Kagura Games would lead to a lot less colorful razzing from yours truly. And I know I'm a thorn in the side of the GOG staff, so anything to make their job easier!
Dylldophlo Ignore games, ignore company, ignore Prologue/Demo and Tag filter please. Thank you
Schnuff Jedesmal, bei jedem Sale sehe ich die gleichen Spiele. Spiele die ich nicht mal mit Handschuhen und ner Kneifzange anfassen würde.
Daher würde ich eine Option zum Ignorieren sehr begrüßen.
Aber, gleichzeitig sehe ich ja auch, dass GOG kaum die bestehenden Optionen am laufen hält. Und da sie ja wohl noch immer in starken finanziellen Schwierigkeiten stecken, sehe ich kaum, wie sie dieses mit den wenigen Leuten die bei ihnen arbeiten schaffen sollen.
2Plus2 There's no excuse for this feature not existing here. It would work far better than ignoring tags, especially since occasionally there are games with no tags attached to them that feature content I don't want to see.
Lhun Duum The store experience is so exhausting without this feature; I'm so tired of seeing the same games I have no interest for times and times again...
charlemagne1980 really irritating gog keeps forcing users to wade through mountains of trash as we go into 2024
Arch___ I'm in in terms of adding "Ignore Game" for sure. There is plenty bad indie games that are just crap in my taste but I see them every time.
cav8005 This will never happen in a million years. GOG can't even figure out a way of permanently deleting games/demos from accounts like you can on Steam. I don't think the guys at GOG are that smart.
tsquare I can't believe this isn't a higher priority for marketing. You get so few chances to have me engage with the store, why would you waste those precious opportunities showing me games I already own and/or will never buy? A page full of games I don't own engages my curiosity. A page full of games I already own or don't care about disengages me entirely.
zippythezip Get tired of seeing games I own show as not owned as I have the "collection" "game of year version" etc
I could mark them owned.
Boukthor Every week or so, the store has new games on sale but most of these were already on sale the previous week. Browsing through the same hundred of games you already saw and turned down previously gets old real fast. If you don't want people to just stop browsing altogether, you need this option.
nachfuellbar Please add ASAP - it's really disadvantage over steam
Nordicus With the new 'Discover' page, this feature is more important than ever. How can I discover new games when everything you show me, I either am explicitly not interested in, or already own?
Dar007-Eleven I'd love to ignore games which don't interest me or I own on a different platform or own physically.
ToxorAxiom Yes, please. It's embarrassing to browse the store and be flooded with images of suggestible sexual content when my wife and daughter are within eye distance. Steam gives you the option, why not GOG?
RoughThief PLEASE make this possible. Especially now that GOG has decided to add some of what I would classify as "Steam trash" to the selection. I understand that you need to expand the range since old games don't exactly multiply and remasters of old games only come at a slow drip, but at least give me the ability to not have to rifle through the garbage every single time there is a sale. I've gotten to the point where I'll pass up a sale on occasion just because I don't want to look through 20-50 pages of things that I already know I'm 100 % not interested in or already have on another plattform.
disulfiram This feature is needed urgently. The store front,for me at this point, is covered by recommendations of games that I am dead set on not buying as I already own, or genuinely have no interest in. I literally get information on good deals here from aggregate sites like IsThereAnyDeal.
rogerT +1 !
I'm fed up with strategy games... Of course MANY times, Strategy games are in the bargain bin I guess It's not as easy to sell as it seems...). It rather "easy" to navigate for the moment.. but it won't be that easy, in 5 years from now....
MateusAuri I agree. An 'ignore' button would be especially useful now that GOG is letting whatever porn games into the store.
blue_legacy It would be a very QOL implementation, and people would be able to seek better what they have affinity, instead of all this bloat of things spamming their screen. Potentally losing some gems...
cosmicbuddha Steam has this feature. I always go to Steam first before I got to GOG, Epic, Nintendo, or Playstation stores. I use Steam as a reference since I have so many games. I will always see Steam's sales first and buy from them since it is easier for me for my reference. I have currently 1171 games on Steam. I would have happily split them between GOG and Steam but it wasn't an easy task because GOG doesn't have this feature. If you want more money, then implement this feature. Do it before my wishlists run dry.
modmansage This could also work to mark games where there's a complete edition on GOG and a piece-wise version (all the parts separately) as buying the complete edition doesn't mark the piece-wise parts as owned either.
ryanxj9000 Yes, preferably with the 2 options Steam just added to theirs: 1) Ignore completely (affects game recommendations), 2) Ignore because I own the game on another platform (does NOT affect game recommendations.
xwingdragon Hear! Hear!
"...give the customer control over what they see displayed..."
I almost never use GOG anymore except wishlisted items.
Steam is my go-to for this ONE REASON.
Geckon33 I would like to have an "ignore list" like the one on steam. On steam i go throw the games and add the games i want to the wishlist. I mark the games that i don't want as "ignored". When i look for new games on steam, the games that i marked as "ignored" are faded out. This way i can easily skip the ignored games and save a lot of time. I would like to see that feature on gog, too.
##@@##@@ It is interesting to take note that Steam has just added an Ignore feature to its Steam Store so users can effectively ban games from their personal store pages.
I like this idea very much as I have since perma-banned several obnoxious game studios from mine. Lets face it, folks... Not everybody is into video game porn. Not everybody likes blood-n'-guts gaming. Not everybody likes competition-hating Studio destroyers like Electronic Arts. Not everybody likes politically motivated SJW shills like DONTNOD Entertainment.
My point is: Please, Gog.com! Follow Steam's lead and give the customer control over what they see displayed. Give the customer the power to Ignore games of their choosing!
