I usually pick up games on sale and mostly don't know lot about the purchased games, and simply play them

 

[Soodanim]

What I do is install a range of games I want to play so that they are ready for when I'm done with the current game. Then when the times comes I don't feel like playing any of them, so I install something else instead. Then in a few years when I'm having a clear up I uninstall them ready for the next round of "Definitely soon"

 

[Hashassin]

With all the unfinished barf coming out, I definitely thoroughly check whatever it is I'm thinking of buying. All "remasters" with AI paint jobs and not fixing decade old problems are abundant

 

[PlayStaytion]

The game that makes a lot of noise and I wait tell it gets cleared. I used to look desperately for anything decent but only when I'm desperate and when there are a lot of great releases I wait tell it slows down.

 

[TintoConCasera]

I skim through my Steam library and pick something to play. Not the whole thing, but a curated list of "cool games I want to play soon" I have ready. Most times that's enough but if not I'll just go and play some console retro game, got lots of games to play from the NES up to today.

Day 1 games aren't a priority anymore.

as a gamer:
I choose based on whatever mood I want

as a dev:
I play what my work research required into

 

[Killjoy-NL]

If it seems interesting, I'll play it.

Live service games will be put on a rotation.

 

[Plies]

I consult a spiritual advisor.

 

[drganon]

I pick something I'm in the mood to play either from my backlog or something new.

[adamsapple]

Now I want to replay FFIX.

 

[Brakum]

I browse steam. Anything lower than very positive user rating is automatically out, even if the game looks good to me. I trust the reviews more than the pictures and videos.

 

[Audiophile]

I turn the console on, browser through my library, check the store, go and browse the library again, then turn the console off.

Last game I bought was recommended by ChatGPT lol. Would you believe it ? It's actually quite good at understanding what you like and recommending stuff.

Recommended Stranger of Paradise and I am having an absolute blast. Exactly the kind of game I was looking for.
