The Longest Journey: Playing Through My Steam Library

Earlier today I was listening to the PC Gamer podcast and they were discussing this little web tool that was designed to give you all these stats about your Steam account. These range from how many games you've never played on your Steam account to your top five most played games.


I'm not sure if you can see or not, but I own 67 games on Steam. I've played 44 of them (not beaten, just activated) and never touched 23 of them. TWENTY-THREE GAMES untouched... Most of these are games bought in bundles like the Humble Indie Bundle or when Steam does franchise sales, but still... Twenty-three games.

That number has suddenly motivated me to try and power through the games in my Steam library that remain uncompleted. Some will be simple games like Limbo while others will be hour long RPGs like Skyrim and Fallout: New Vegas. Granted I'm not even sure if there's a way to "beat" some of these games, but I'll give it my best go.

It won't be easy, or fun all the time. But I'll try to curb some of that by either streaming (if that is at all possible) or at least blogging about it as often as possible. If you're curious about the list of games I need to go through here it is but let me warn you, it's not pretty.

1. Amnesia: The Dark Descent
2. And Yet it Moves
