Do you have games in your library that you never played? I certainly do! In Steam you can create Dynamic Collection that lists Unplayed games. For me its 1248/1356 unplayed Games. Off course it can be any other platform or service too; this discussion is not limited to Steam. This thread is a reminder to us and everyone else to play these games. And actually, no. It’s just to talk about gaming stuff, that’s all. What do you think which game you own and never played would make others say “wtf, why not”?
- Ori and the Blind Forest: This game looks and sound beautiful.
- Persona 5 Royal: Everytime I want to play this game, the school theme turns me away.
- Subnautica: A friend recommend me years this game. Legends say, he still does.
- Slay the Spire: I have no excuse for this.
- Hades: I like Roguelikes. My life need more Roguelikes.
- Control: Such an interesting game. I have no idea about the story and mechanics, it looks interesting.
- Disco Elysium: A detective roleplay with a lot narrative and freedom. I think.
- Prey: Got interested into the game because some alien style thing going on. Game mechanics sounds very interesting.
- Talos Principle 2: Not sure what awaits me. I expect Portal like gameplay, but without Portals.
I am ashamed of myself. But I really have a hard time finding time to play all of them.

That list of yours contains some of my favourite games ever. Subnautica if you love exploration and/or suffer from thalassophobia (my personal top #1), Disco Elysium is hard to describe but is the best written/voiceacted game I ever played, with a strong atmosphere, Prey (I suppose it’s Prey 2017) is a very freeform, nonlinear and lonely walk through a space station, and Ori is a very beautiful and tight platformer with metroidvania progression, much like Hollow Knight & Silksong in its various mechanics.
Some of my (86) unplayed games :
Machine for Pigs really didn’t hit at all for me. It was made by a different team and the writing, pacing, and gameplay are substantially different from Dark Descent. Treat Machine for Pigs as a walking sim and I think that would be a pretty apt comparison
Oh really, I thought it was the same team. You think a poltroon like me could get through it? I did play Soma…, in peaceful mode.
Honestly, I would just watch a Let’s Play or something… you wouldn’t really be missing much
I like the idea of Subnautica and I’m definitely an exploration guy, thanks to my love to Zelda since the very first games from 80s and 90s! Its high on my priority list. The only thing I imagine is, the game is slow because its under water. Usually under water experience in games is not good. I still don’t get how Disco Elysium works or is played, but that is also exciting to find it out myself. That’s why I’m not reading much reviews or watch gameplay, because I’m already sold. Just intriguing to think about the game. Oh boy I forgot Hollow Knight. xD
Deus EX Invisible War. Hmm usually I think of the modern games in series or the very first one. The games in between often get forgotten.
Subnautica is paced remarkably well. It’s mostly slow-ish exploration, but the balancing act between your air reserves, exploring ever deeper, and the many lurking dangers means that you’re never bored
