killamch89 Posted May 17, 2025 Posted May 17, 2025 How do you decide which PC games deserve a permanent spot? Do you rely on reviews, streamer recommendations, Metacritic scores, or hands‑on demos? Maybe you have a Y‑axis of “fun factor” vs. “production value,” or a checklist: strong narrative, mod support, replayability. Lay out your personal curation process: what filters you apply, what deal thresholds you won’t cross, and how you avoid the backlog trap.
Scorpion Posted May 18, 2025 Posted May 18, 2025 I decide which PC games are must-haves based on reviews, gameplay trailers, and personal interests. I look for titles that offer unique experiences, strong storytelling, or innovative mechanics, ensuring my library stays diverse and engaging with games I genuinely enjoy playing.
killamch89 Posted May 20, 2025 Author Posted May 20, 2025 I follow a '100-hour rule' for evaluating value: if a game potentially provides 100+ hours of enjoyment, it's worth considering regardless of price. This leads me toward immersive RPGs, strategy games with high replayability, and multiplayer titles with strong communities. I've found this approach steers me toward games that become long-term companions rather than brief diversions.
