I would like to see/hear how you guys organize your games? If at all!

I realized Im starting to just horde a bunch of games ( close to 300 games) and Decided to plunge into Playnite and thought I'd see how all of you guys organize your games

I keep it simple. I use F95Checker, sort the list by "Last Launched" and archive finished games.
F95Checker has the neat benefit that it automatically checks if a new update was released on this site, which is extremely helpful if you keep an eye on multiple games and don't feel like scouring Latest Updates regularly (also helps keeping an eye on games that don't appear in Latest Updates for some reason).

Dump into designated folder then sort by alphabetical in file explorer.
This is what I do too. I also add to steam if I need something to make a controller work because that's how I like to do it.

I never heard of this f95checker thing before!

Download, play, delete, refer to C:\Users\(user)\AppData\Roaming\RenPy for (most, around 60 to 70%) games played.

I.E. No organization at all.

A folder of unplayed games I'm going to check out. A subfolder of played games that I intend to continue playing. A sub-sub folder of completed games that I might replay. A sub-sub-sub folder of abandoned games, but that I still like and might replay. Each folder is sorted alphabetically.

I also just installed F95 checker, so that just has everything I've played and want to check out in the future.

Honestly not a bad way to organise it! do you ever actually play the "going to play in the future folder"?

I have 3 separate "sections" on my desktop. There's a group of games that I haven't played yet, games I have played and games I play a lot of. I really should just put them in separate folders, but I like seeing all the games on my desktop without checking which folder it's in. Also, if I don't recognize a game in the "games I have played" section I figure I can delete it. Freeing up space on my admittedly pretty old computer.

I keep a text document, manually input them alphabetically, with their version numbers in brackets and my own rating of 1-10 in brackets right after that. I should probably check out this f95checker though.
