COMPLETED GAME Markers?

I feel like having markers that a player can give for a title on their games list to show they've completed it would be nice. For people with large collections, numbering in the hundreds, or even thousands, keeping track of all the games you completed full, or stopped part-way through, can be difficult.

But if I could leave a subtle mark next to a game, like a bullet point, or a check mark, that is low contrast and blends in without looking too garish or distracting, to show that I've already beaten that game, that would be fantastic.

I utilize Collections for that.

That said, if you're scrolling through your entire list of games, it'd definitely be helpful to see a check mark next to a title you've completed.

You already have a completed game marker, a blue rosette with a yellow centre circle.

You have four completed games: https://ibb.co/DfLsBFyk

Create a collection and add those four to it, then add others as you complete them.

That's in a separate, isolated, stats page.

And creating a collection would do nothing, since the games would still be part of my other collections which I've organized, and I would have to go out of my way to cross-reference games in my completed collection with games in my other collection groupings, just to see if I've already beaten them on my library page.

A lot of work for something that could easily just be summed up by allowing users to put a differently tinted grey dot next to a title.

It is a list of your completed games for reference.

4 perfect games is also listed on your Rare Achievement Showcase.

Nothing? You would not have to scroll through your game list because there is a collection with them all gathered together.

My achievement showcase is in a partition of my profile. My "Collection" grouping of completed games would have to be cross-referenced, because I'm not ruining my categorization by removing them from genre listings to put them in there. They would have to share that folder with the others if I did.

I guess what I'm asking for is game "markers", not just for "completed" games, but general markers you could put on titles in your steam game library for whatever purpose.

I support this suggestion.

I have various collections I put games in. Games I’ve completed 100%, games I got to the end but didn’t get all the achievements, games that don’t really end get put into “keep playing “ or “never play again “. Etc.

I could see it being useful.
